Ok this time I searched before posting. My auto login doesn't seem to be working. I do have "Auto Login Facebook Users" enabled.

Thanks.

It depends on how you're testing. The Auto-Login feature will only work if the user is just visiting the page for the first time in a while and hasn't recently logged out of your site. The best way to test is to open a new browser (or an incognito/stealth tab in your current one), login to Facebook, and then visit your site.

We disable auto-login after the user has logged out to not infuriate your users by re-logging them in automatically.

I hope that makes sense, but if you're still having issues after testing with the info above, let me know.

Thanks,
Alex

That is so ironic. I like having an admin account separate from my own standard user account on my sites. So it got a little annoying that whenever I logged out from my standard member account, I'd have to rush to get my admin account details in before the auto login kicked in. Now I'm like this is really nice but I wonder if it's a conflict or bug. LOL.

We've had the auto-login timeout feature for at least 6 months (since v5.0.0) and I think even longer. You shouldn't have been automatically logged in before right after logging out. If you were, *that* was a bug. The behavior you describe now sounds correct.

I hope that helps, and glad things are working how you only dreamed they would :D As always though, 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:
