Altered facebook login image does not work in language file

On your page, I see the 2 Login with Facebook buttons in the sidebar and the top right of the menu. I'm not sure what isn't working whrn you test as I do not see the COM_QUIZ_REG_ONLY text anywhere.

Are you still having an issue getting the button to show? If so, can you provide an image or more information as to where we should be looking?

Thanks,
Alex

I'm not sure why that isn't working. If your language file string looks like:

COM_QUIZ_REG_ONLY=" Some text and html tags ....{JFBClogin}....additional code here that showed the remaining two login buttons"

Try updating that to something like:

COM_QUIZ_REG_ONLY=" Some text and html tags ....{TESTTEST}....additional code here that showed the remaining two login buttons"

See if that still doesn't work. If not, it's either something with Joomla not liking the { } marks or the com_quiz component that's doing some extra parsing.

In general, we've never heard of this issue though. You should be able to put HTML or any other tags in a language string without any issue.

Let us know how the test above goes,
Alex

The code for the custom image is separate from the {JFBCLogin} tag. The custom image code should be used on its own. The {JFBCLogin} tag will create a Javascript based button using Facebook's own widget. Generally, we recommend the custom image as it's more flexible and less prone to bugs since it doesn't rely on Facebook's constantly changing Javascript.

My guess is that Joomla is having difficulty rendering your HTML button when used in a language string. That's not something we test with, and may not be something we can help you work around if that's how Joomla works. Joomla has a lot of checks for security to prevent 'bad' code from causing problems on your site, and it may see the use of HTML and javascript in a language string as a bad thing that it prevents from being used.In that case, if you don't want to use the {JFBCLogin} tag, you'd need to add the HTML for the custom button directly to the template or component that is displaying the button instead of using it in a language string.

Otherwise, can you post the *exact* language string that isn't working, without the {JFBCLogin} tag? If there are quotation marks in the string ", you'll need to replace those with single quotes to prevent Joomla from thinking those are the end of the string.

Hope that explains,
Alex

Glad to hear we got you going! Hopefully, it's all smooth sailing from here. Should you need anything else though, just let us know.

Finally, if you haven't already, please consider leaving a rating and review for JFBConnect, or our support, on the Joomla Extension Directory. It certainly isn't required, but is very appreciated:
