Giving JFBconnect a second chance on a development sub-domain and despite the documentation being somewhat out of date, I feel I have made reasonable progress so far. I have set-up separate demo apps on Facebook, Twitter, Google and LinkedIn and was feeling somewhat pleased with myself.

However I seem to have an issue navigating to the standard Joomla registration screen using the SC Login module. I know some of my clients will not want to use their social media accounts and will prefer to create a standard Joomla user account but when I click the registration button in the SC Login module, I don't get to the standard registration form. Instead it just seems to load a login screen and this appears to be confirmed by looking at the URL of the page that loads (after clicking the Registration button) as it ends
/component/users/?view=login
. I checked the Registration button link and that is
/component/users/?view=registration
so I suspect a setting, either in the module or the component, is hijacking my standard Joomla registration screen.

Be grateful for any suggestions.

Tim,
I'm unsure of exactly what's happening there as well. As you noted, the registration link looks correct, but a redirection is happening to the login page instead. My best, and really only, guess is that you have new user registrations disabled. Can you go to the User Manager -> Options and make sure the "Allow User Registration" is enabled?

If not, then you're correct, it's likely another system plugin performing the redirection, but I'm unsure of what that would be or why.

I hope that helps,
Alex

You got it in one. "Allow User Registration" was NOT enabled.

Many thanks.
