Topic-icon Can't see the tags for the JFBC Social Plugin

When you type in a tag on your forum or website, the user sees the output, not the tag. Can you fix that?

Well, that was inartful. What I meant was that in the Configuration guides, one sees the output of the tags, as opposed to the tags themselves. For example curly bracket JFBCLike curly bracket. Appears as {JFBCLike}.

Yup. We don't like it either. We're working on a way to enter a 'key' so that you have to type something like:
{ JFBCLike key=12345}

This way, if a user leaves off the key, the Like box won't show. This will be more important once we get the replacement for {JFBCLogin} working, which should be in the 3.1 release.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

We updated the configuration guide to show the correct tags. Thanks for pointing that out. We simply put a space after the opening { to break the plugin detection.

This issue has been fixed in the new version 3.2 of JFBConnect. In the backend, you will set up the "Social Tag Admin Key" (located under Components > JFBConnect > Social > Misc). Any tags in brackets will need to have this key included to be rendered. For example, if you set your key to 1234, then the tag would look something like {JFBCFeed key=1234} to be rendered correctly. Any tag with an incorrect key or no key will not be rendered. (Pretty much as Alex described above). Check it out and let us know if you have any issues with it.
