Hello,

If I use JFBConnect as registration component and if I want to sign in for ex. with Twitter it gives me message:

Welcome !
Thanks for signing in using Twitter. Please fill out the information below to create your account.

Is it possible to get this message in Joomla registration component?

Regards

Welcome !
Thanks for signing in using Twitter. Please fill out the information below to create your account.

There should be the user's name after the "Welcome". Not sure why it's not showing, but if not, it could be an indication that the authentication through Twitter wasn't fully successful.

I know that's not specifically what you were asking about, but thought I'd mention that in case you are running into issues pulling in the user's profile.

Is it possible to get this message in Joomla registration component?

If you've set the "Registration Component" to "Joomla", then the user will go to the standard Joomla Registration page. We don't have any control over the looks of that page since it's not being creating by JFBConnect. You could likely override the registration page layout from Joomla to add some PHP checks and see if the user is registering with a social network. If so, then you could display whatever message you want. Again, that's not something we could do automatically, but we could give you some of the PHP code you may want to try out if you're interested in digging in to make those changes.

I hope that helps, but if you need anything, let us know.

Thanks,
Alex

Yes, I had some issues but thanks for mentioning!

Yes, I used Joomla registration because I'm using Easy Profile as for registration which is tied with Joomla registration. If I use JFBConnect my layout get messed up. I guess conflict between JFB and EasyProfile. And there are some fields in JFBConnect sign up that I don't know how to remove (MSN, AIM,...).

I'm confused. Are you using EasyProfile or Joomla's built-in registration extension (with possibly the User - Profile plugin enabled)? Either way, the layout that's loaded is from those extensions, not from JFBConnect, so we won't be able to directly alter what's shown.

If you think there's more we can help with, definitely let us know. We'll help however we can, but I'm just not sure what we'd be able to do for either of those registration views.

Thanks,
Alex

The attachment layout is shown if I select JFBConnect as registration in JFB configurations. I'm using Easy Profile but it just extends core Joomla registration.

Thanks for clarifying. JFBConnect doesn't have any ability to automatically alter the output of the registration page from Joomla. EasyProfile can do that because it's part of the form area. To add additional text to the top, outside of the registration form, would take a custom solution and work outside of how Joomla expects that page to render. It's doable, but would likely cause issues on many user's sites.

There's a few options I can suggest though:
1) Add a single line of code to JFBConnect that will use the message system to put one of those bubbles at the top of the registration page to notify the user that they successfully authenticated with Facebook (or another social network) but need to complete the registration form below.
2) Add more code to the registration layout page to dynamically check how the user got to the page. If it was from JFBConnect, you can override the layout however you want.

Option 2 is more flexible, but takes more work. Option 1 is quick.

Let me know if either of those sound good to you.

Thanks,
Alex

Based on my other post I'm here again. Can you please look at attachment on one of my previous posts. There are inputs for AIM, YIM, MSN, Skype,... in registration form. How can I remove them?

Do you happen to have Kunena on your site and/or have the 'Social Profiles - Kunena' plugin enabled? Those extra fields (from Signature down to Website URL) look like information for Kunena profile setup.
