Problem with Social login and auto-assign to easysocial group

If a user signs up using JFBconnect, it isn't auto-assigning the user to an Easysocial Group (as configured in Easysocial). If a user signs up via the registration form they are getting assigned to the group automatically.

Is it possible that JFBconnect is ignoring something when the social login occurs? Does it trigger the normal Easysocial functions of a new user?

JFBConnect is assigning the user to the default Easysocial User Group but within that profile type there is the option to auto-assign a user to a "Group". On Easysocial, these groups are like Facebook Groups in which there are members to these groups. Easysocial allows you to assign new registered website users to be auto-assigned to "Groups" you want them to be part of.

This setting can be found here: Easysocial > Profiletypes > Groups > Default Groups

And this is what Easysocial says about it "This feature allows you to automatically assign users that signs up with this profile type to join the group automatically."

I hope this explains it better.

Ok. I'm now logged in with the main rvpoints account for support questions....

Regarding automatic registration, yes I do have it turned on and set to JFBConnect. When I turn off automatic registration and set it to Easysocial.....it doesn't give me the proper registration flow. Registration isn't the issue. It's what happens after registration.

JFBConnect registration is working fine. It is what happens afterwards. The user is getting added to the Easysocial User Group that is the default User Group.

As I've said in a previous reply, you'll need to look at this setting in Easysocial:

This setting can be found here: Easysocial > Profiletypes > Groups > Default Groups

And this is what Easysocial says about it "This feature allows you to automatically assign users that signs up with this profile type to join the group automatically."

Easysocial groups are similar to Facebook Groups. For example, you might create a group called "Best Rock Bands" and then have users signup to that interest group forum. And as an admin you can make users be auto-assigned to these interest groups automatically.

Setting the Automatic Registration to Easysocial makes the process harder....and not what I want. I like the JFBConnect process of the one click on Facebook login and then the redirect to the Easysocial page.
