JFBC Facebook Autologin Conflict with EU e-Privacy Directive Plugin was created by drparagmahajan

Hi, I have latest Joomla and JFBC.
Yesterday after installing System - EU e-Privacy Directive Plugin, I noticed that the Facebook Auto login keeps on continuously looping and does not actually login. I have to close the browser and cannot login to the website. After disabling the plugin, it works fine. It seems there is some conflict between the two. How can I solve the issue? I wish to use both extensions.

If that plugin is preventing any cookies from being saved on the user's browser, then it would cause the issue you describe. You will need to disable the auto-login functionality of JFBConnect as that relies on a cookie to be set to detect when a auto-login attempt has happened. It's also very possible that Facebook authentication won't work at all since that relies on cookies being set in general, until the user has approved the cookies.

I hope that helps explain,
Alex
