Hello,
i'd purchased JFBconnect many months ago and i'd never get a bug until today, its my first post here by the way :)
its due to the linkedin dev core update i think, when i click on the connect icon i am just redirect to the home page without any connection.
SEF component is disabled (i use sh404sef).
i turned ON the Debug Mode but i dont have any message on front end
thank you

You're likely correct that it's a problem with the latest LinkedIn API update. We've been monitoring the plans closely, but there was no way to test ahead of time. We're shooting to have the 6.4 release out today, which will ensure compatibility with the latest LinkedIn changes now that we can actually test against it.

The update that LinkedIn performed earlier this week severely crippled it's API. Now, only a very small amount of data is able to be retrieved for a user.

For a short-term fix (before our update), I'd recommend going to the Profiles area in JFBConnect and checking the fields you are trying to import from LinkedIn. Remove (set to 'None') any of the fields that are not on this list below:
developer.linkedin.com/docs/fields/basic-profile

Our update will be removing the disallowed fields and making some other compatibility improvements, but simply limiting your site to importing the allowed fields should be all that's necessary for now.

I hope that helps, but please get in touch if you run into issues. We'd also love to hear if fixing the profile import fixes the problem as well.

Thanks,
Alex

Yes version 6.4 is available now. The latest release will always be available in your My Account > My Downloads area when you have an active subscription. However, I see that your subscription with this account has expired. Therefore, you will be unable to access the file until you purchase a new subscription.
