Topic-icon Facebook Login doesn't actually work 2nd time around

Hi there,

I've set up <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="playgen.com/courses/">playgen.com/courses/

The first time you login with Facebook, it asks if you've got an account or not, if you've not go an account you can create one.

Its then successful and an account is created - it also pull the page in.

However, next time you login using facebook, it just asks you the same question " do you have an account or would you like to create one"

but that shouldn't be the case! should it? Surely the 2nd time you login with facebook it should log you in?

Any direction would be of great help!

thanks
K

What is your setting for "Create New Users"? It should be Yes, from what you state, but I just want to make sure.

A new user is getting created, as you say. However, can you check the JFBConnect UserMap tab in the admin area? This should show the user's Facebook user id (a long number) and their Joomla username on your site. If there is no entry here, then that's why when you log in again it doesn't know you already have an account.


- Do you have any User plugins that perform redirects after a successful registration? That can prevent the usermap from happening.
- What are your settings for approving new users and new user confirmation emails within CB? Neither should be causing this issue, but it may help pinpoint the problem
