Auto login? was created by Czerdrill
I was under the impression that if i visited facebook.com and logged in, and then went to my jomsocial site, I'd be automatically logged in with the facebook connect mapping that was already set up. However, I still have to click the facebook connect button. It does log me in without asking for my credentials again, but I wasn't sure if that's how it was intended to be. Is this the correct behavior, or should going to my JomSocial page after logging in at facebook.com, take me to my JomSocial profile automatically? Thanks.

It should do it automatically, but there are time depending on Facebook and the server configuration where you actually have to reload the page once for the auto-logging in to work. Also, the Facebook Login module must be published on the page you are using. We're looking into resolving the first issue, but do try going to facebook.com and then going to a page with the login module and then refreshing that page.

If it still doesn't log you in, let us know. Heck, even if it does, let us know. Again, we're trying to improve it so it works everytime.

Hello, I tried as you suggested and it did not work. I went to facebook first, and then logged in and then went to my JomSocial page. Again, if I click my Facebook Connect button it takes me to my profile without asking for credentials, but I assumed it would just automatically take me to my JomSocial profile page without having to click the facebook connect button again. Any ideas?
