Hello!

Is there any method to hide the original Joomla login form?
I just want to keep the JFBConnect facebook login button. Thanks!

The SCLogin module has an option to show the Login form or not. Additionally, if you just want the Login with Facebook button you can add the {JFBCLogin} tag anywhere on your site and JFBConnect will replace that with the button.

Hope that helps!

How do you hide the login form if you decide to just use the easy-tag for login but not the SClogin module?

The {JFBCLogin} easy tag only shows the button, no login form. So, if you're moving to that tag, you don't need to do anything extra to hide the login form.

I do not have a joomla login module anywhere on my site but when I try to gain access to certain parts of my site before logging in, I end up here:
longevityreview.com/component/users/?view=login

I want to know how to get rid of the Joomla login entirely.

The Login area you're seeing is built into Joomla. You'll want to override that and basically remove the login form if you don't want it. To do so, copy:
/components/com_users/views/login/tmpl/default_login.php
to
/templates/<YOUR_TEMPLATE>/html/com_users/login/default_login.php (creating any folders that don't exist)

Then, edit that file and remove the form. While there, you can also add the {JFBCLogin} tag to add a Login With Facebook button and even give a description of why to login and how Facebook logins work, if you want.

Hope that helps!
