Does anyone know if reseller or shared SSL URLs from Host Gator work in Facebook? I get the "Secure Canvas URL has been been identified as malicious and/or abusive."

thanks

No, you can't. Your SSL certificate needs to use the same root domain as your main site. Shared certificates have been very abused by 'bad' people in the past and they do not work for Facebook anymore. They want an SSL certificate that is directly for your domain to function.

The only features that require SSL are Page Tab and Canvas integration. Facebook Requests currently rely on the Canvas as well (which means SSL is required). However, we can help you get around for now, and the upcoming 5.1 release won't require SSL for Requests.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
Alex

Thanks Alex. I went ahead and bought SSL certificate.. found good deal thru go daddy with coupon code found online ($12 for 2 years). I noticed on my site the login fields do not look as good as your login. Can you take a look? Also, my posts from Jomsocial do not show up Facebook.. I have it turned on in configuration.

Glad to hear you got an SSL cert that works for you. $12 for 2 years is an excellent deal, by the way.

As to the SCLogin on your site, the login fields look fine, but the little right-side icons do look bad. It looks like some minor CSS issues that we'll look into improving in the next release. Until then, if you don't mind making some minor edits to our CSS, these should hopefully fix you right up. Both changes are in the /modules/mod_sclogin/css/mod_sclogin.css file.

At line 19, you'll see:
input#sclogin-username.input-block-level, input#sclogin-passwd.input-block-level {
min-height: 28px !important;
}
Change that min-height to 30px

At line 24, you'll see:
a.forgot.btn {
height: 18px !important;
}
Change that to 30px as well.

Let me know how that goes or if you need anything else, and best of luck!

Awesome! Glad to hear that got you going. Should you need anything else, 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:
