Except for mergescript and cdn for joomla I have no other plugins or components installed.

If you have caching enabled in Joomla and/or your browser has cached an old CDN'd version of our Javascript, that could be the problem. I tested after things were setup correctly. If you tested beforehand, the new changes may not be seen (and still cached by your CDN).

I'd highly recommend testing with no CDN or optimizations being made and clear your browser cache as well to make sure you're getting the 'freshest' files.

I hope that helps, but keep us posted on what your further testing finds.

Thanks,
Alex

Hey Alzander: Thanks for your patience. I appreciate it.

All right, something happened! I turned off the CDN component so I have nothing running on Joomla except for JFBConnect. Now Google Login works again and Facebook is a link. When clicked the Facebook popup shows up. However, after entering login and password it disappears and no refresh or login happens. I also turned off Joomla cache (I was using APC), but this seems to have no effect on JFBC's current behavior. Can you please check on your side to see if Facebook login works for you. Also, you can probably see something in the site's source that I can't.

Gustavo,
Glad you're making progress. The Facebook login is *not* working for me now. The reason is that you have the "Show 'Logging in' Popup" setting enabled in the Facebook config area of JFBConnect. That popup requires the Bootstrap Javascript library to be loaded, and it's not on your page.

Can you please enable the "Load JQuery" setting JFBConnect's config area? That loads a compatibility mode version of jQuery and the Bootstrap Javascript. Alternatively, disable the "Show 'Logging in' Popup" setting, which should fix things as well.

With that, hopefully everything should start working.

Thanks,
Alex

Sorry for the late reply but had to test this a little bit...and it is working. Thanks for your patience and great support. One question I have is about JFBC's bootstrap. The module or component loads its own bootstrap, which I suppose have customized css for the modules. Can that bootstrap be used site wide inorder to just load one copy of bootstrap css?

In case someone faces the same issues, I'm using NoNumber CDN for Joomla! and ScriptMerge. For JFBC to work with this plugin the file jfbconnect.js should be ignored in both plugins. With these settings my problems went away, even though I found a conflict between SCLogin and a plugin called Easy Language (plugin translates text on the fly using tags like this {lang en}English Text{/lang}{lang es}Same Text in Spanish{/lang}).

When SCLogin is published before any text using Easy Language, Easy Language doesn't work. In my case, Easy Language worked when SCLogin was on the right sidebar, but when I tried to publish it in the header it broke. This happened only when the login and password forms were published. If I removed them, leaving only the Social icons, Easy Language worked. When logged in, the Log Out button also broke Easy Language.

As many other free plugins Easy Language has little support so it was impossible to get an answer on this but I thought it was worth mentioning in case you see something in this behaviour.

Our Bootstrap CSS can't be used sitewide. We prefix all the classes with 'sourcecoast'. We originally tried to have generic Bootstrap CSS which would be able to inherit looks from your template. However, there were way too many conflicts with different templates and other extensions that we couldn't do that and went down the prefix route.

We do plan to reduce our CSS file going forward as there are many Bootstrap styles we're not using. That will hopefully be reduced in the next major release.

As for the other information about your CDN and Easy Language, thanks for the tips. We'll definitely keep them in mind in case others run into issues.

Thanks, and good luck,
Alex
