Simon,
There are a few reasons that the email field can show even if it's set to hidden:
1) JFBConnect isn't properly communicating with Facebook. At the top of the page, it should say "Hi Bob" (or whatever the user's name is. If the user's first name is not showing up there, let us know. That's a problem.
2) The user that's trying to register already has an account with the same email address on your site. In that case, the user will have to use a different email address, or use the left-hand side of the form to login and connect their accounts. You can also enable the "Automatically link accounts by email address" setting in JFBConnect which will skip the registration screen if the same email address is found.
3) You've created a template override or modified our view. Can you check if the following file exists: /templates/<YOUR_TEMPLATE>/html/com_jfbconnect/loginregister/default.php
If so, that means you've overridden the layout of JFBConnect for the registration page. If so, you'll need to integrate the latest changes into that file, or simply remove it altogether to use the login/register view that comes with JFBConnect.

Hope that helps get you started. If none of the above seems right, just let us know.

Thanks,
Alex

1) The User Name it Show on the Page

2) This is new user with new email

3) You've created a template override or modified our view. Can you check if the following file exists: /templates//html/com_jfbconnect/loginregister/default.php
If so, that means you've overridden the layout of JFBConnect for the registration page. If so, you'll need to integrate the latest changes into that file, or simply remove it altogether to use the login/register view that comes with JFBConnect.

I have this file . We put this file there because i want to use my template buttons.
This are the only changes i did to this file
Buttons:
1) Copy /components/com_jfbconnect/views/loginregister/tmpl/default.php to /templates//html/com_jfbconnect/loginregister/default.php (create any directories necessary)
2) Edit the file you just created
3) Search for "s already there).

p.s I remove this file and the fields are still there

Simon,
Can you double-check that the email address isn't already in your Joomla site? I just clicked the Login With Facebook button on your t***fill.com site and the email address was properly hidden.

It seems like it's working to me, and the only reason the email should be hidden in that case is if JFBConnect detects a user already exists in Joomla with the Facebook email address that's trying to register.

Thanks,
Alex

Simon,
I tried last night and, like I mentioned, my email was properly hidden. I just tried again so that I could show you a picture of what I see, and my account was automatically created. It seems like you changed the Registration setting to "Automatic".

I'm honestly not sure why the email is being shown for that user. The only reason JFBConnect would show a blank email address is if it thinks there will be a conflict with that email address with an existing user in the User Manager. That's the only time we prevent the email is when this happens. There shouldn't be any other times it shows when you have that setting marked to hide it.

All I can suggest is to try from a different computer, try from a different Facebook account, and/or double-check your Joomla User area (or even the database directly) to make sure that user's email address isn't in the system somehow.

If you plan to keep the automatic user generation, you don't need to worry about the registration form as that method is quicker and simpler... which is what it sounds like you're looking for.

Simon,
I just tried with another test account (the one I used last night), and the registration form came up. It's possible the account I tested with earlier already had registered on your site, which is why I didn't see the registration form. You still may want to consider the Automatic Registration mode though.

Below is a picture of what I see with a new user when I click the Login With Facebook button and don't already have an account on your site with the same email address:
