The whole point of me buying this thing was to simplify my registration, but it doesn't appear that I can have a modal registration.... Is there a way?

All I want is a modal popup for a "mini" registration where users (1) select their role (in my case lawyers/clients) with a radial dial and (2) create an account with their email (or facebook, linkedin, google+, etc.)

When automatic registration is enabled in JFBConnect, the user can have an account created immediately when they use the social network login functions from the modal popup.

If you need to ask additional questions or other information that can't automatically be imported, then yes, the user would have to go through some sort of form-based registration process. We don't support asking those questions in the modal popup view for now, though features like that are planned.

With the JFBConnect registration flow, you can disable almost all other fields that display so it's boiled down to just "Are you a lawyer" from whatever profile extension you're using.

I hope that helps explain some more, but if you have any questions, just let me know what they are and we'll gladly help. Also, if you can let us know what profile extension(s) you're using to store user data, that will help us understand your flow better as well too.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi, thank you for your response.

I am using an extension called Joombri Freelance.


It seems like the JFBConnect registration flow is overwritten (or something) by Joombri. When I click "registration" via the SCLogin link, it goes to the standard Joombri page, not the JFBConnect page... so all of the social icons, etc., are not there.

It sounds like I'm going to have to customize all of the coding, which is really not what I wanted. Is that a fair assessment?

No, I don't think you'll need to override all the coding.. thankfully. Though, there may have to be some changes to code somewhere.

The "Register" button on the SCLogin module simply brings the user to the standard Joomla Registration page. JFBConnect will automatically add the social login buttons to that page. Some extensions have a system plugin which is meant to redirect any requests to the standard Joomla registration page to their own registration page. From your description above, Jombri sounds like it's performing such a redirection.

That's actually ok. You'll need to add the JFBConnect social login buttons to the Jombri registration layout page, which we try to make as simple as possible. I can't tell you the specific template file to edit, you'd need to contact Jombri or consult their documentation. Once you know the right file though, all you have to do is add the following 'tag' to the page:
{JFBCLogin}
JFBConnect will detect and replace that tag with the proper social authentication buttons that you've configured. There's lots of parameters you can also configure in that tag for which providers to show, which image to use and other things.. but for now, get started with that tag. Once the social login buttons appear, you should be good to go.

I hope that helps explain, but if not, let me know and we'll help however we can.

Thanks,
Alex
