Login with FB not working

Hopefully that release should fix things.
As for auto-login, looking at your page, that doesn't look to be enabled. Can you check your configuration settings? We haven't heard of any issues with the auto-login function not working either.
Thanks,

Try again after the URL thing is fixed. If still having issues, let us know a page we can test on.After backend setting "Show 'Logging In' popup :" is disabled, this problem dont seems to appear but the page still tries to reload/refresh every 2 second.
We do respect Joomla's restrictions. I'm not sure about CB's, but if you're using one of our automatic username settings, like 'firlas', that will only have 6 characters. If you need something longer, choose the first.last, fb_/g_ or email option. The next release will try to always generate a 6 character username, but even then, there will be cases where it could be less (though still within what Joomla allows).Secondly, I also noticed after facebook sign in and proceed with user registeration with a new username, it does not follow the joomla or community builder minimum username character length. Possible more conditional are missing out as I have yet to test everything.
Right now, that wouldn't be easy to implement in our social profile plugin. We don't have any calls in JFBConnect to have the plugins check for acceptable usernames, JFBConned does that automatically and adheres to the Joomla requirements only. We can look into doing some extra validation for CB, but it's not something that would be easy to implement in a line or so of code.Community builder username 'Field-specific Parameters' have the following (to name some important one): minimum length, authorized input (e.g. a-z,0-9) and Forbidden words at registration. Could social profiles plugins also have these integrated?
Can you explain this a little bit more as to how you're testing this issue? Where are you 'changing to another name', what 'new name does not get capture at the back end' and how are you thinking it should be captured.. re-logging in with Facebook, just logging in with Joomla, etc.Additional finding in user registration with first time fb login, it takes my fb first and last name in name field. Even changing to another name, new name does not get capture at the back end after clicking on the register button. It still takes the original fb first and last name when view at the backend.
I just tested in Chrome and it's fine. My guess is that your browser simply didn't reload the our jfbconnect.js Javascript file and is using the 'old' version. That should take care of itself after a few hours. JFBConnect v5.1 will not work with the v5.0 Javascript which is likely cached by your browser and being loaded.I also have the same problem with MS windows Chrome after upgrading to 5.1.1:
