Hi Alzander,

Sorry for doubling the post www.sourcecoast.com/forums/jfbconnect/jf...-with-fb-not-working but the Forum said I could not post there so...I ran into the same issue and fixed it by disabling "Show 'Logging In' popup" as you suggested but in my case I'm on JFB 5.2.1 - motuekamusic.org.nz

Am I doing something else wrong or the issue has not been fixed yet?

Posts are automatically closed after 45 days of inactivity. That prevents really old threads from being resurrected.

As to your question, that issue was fixed a long time ago. The modal popup requires that the jQuery and Bootstrap Javascript libraries to both be loaded on your site. Your page is only loading the jQuery library. If you go into the JFBConnect -> Configuration area and enable the "Include jQuery" setting, that will include both libraries. The name is a little off since it only mentions jQuery, but turning it on should be all that you need.

Please let me know how that goes, and good luck,
Alex

Perfect, thanks for the fast repply. Have 2 different issues going on though, maybe it's time for a break...

1 - under JFB config. when I select Registration Component to Joomla, click on register and click on the Facebook button, all goes well and I can register but when I select Registration Component to JFB and repeat the process the page shows a "Captcha *" under confirm password but doesn't display the captcha to be typed, therefore I cannot register.

2 - Once I create my account linked to Facebook, the system adds me as a Registered user but shows menus that should only be seen by users from the Special Viewing Access Level (set to Manager, Author and Super Users only).

The captcha system is currently broken in Joomla due to a change from Google. Please see this post from OSTraining on how you can apply a fix to your site to make it show. This is not caused by JFBConnect, just so you know.

2 - Once I create my account linked to Facebook, the system adds me as a Registered user but shows menus that should only be seen by users from the Special Viewing Access Level (set to Manager, Author and Super Users only).

That's not right. We've never heard of that issue before and I can't imagine why it's happening. The Access Levels are assigned to specific user groups. If the user is assigned to the proper user group, then JFBConnect has done everything it can do. You may want to rebuild the user permissions for your site as it seems like there's something corrupt in your database that's incorrectly allowing users to see certain menu items.

I hope that helps get you started,
Alex
