How to place login button within a text field

1) You can use our EasyTags to add the login button anywhere. Simply add the following text to your article, module or anywhere else that will display on the page:
{JFBCLogin}
There are plenty of ways to customize that as well to only show a specific login option. For example, if you only want to show the Facebook and Twitter login buttons, in that order, you can use:
{JFBCLogin providers=facebook,twitter}
There are other customization options as well to set a specific image. If interested, just let us know.

2) If the SCLogin module is already configured to show on a page, you can use the following HTML to have it popup from anywhere:
I hope that helps!

Sorry for the delay. We've been super busy with updating JFBConnect for Joomla 4 compatibility.. which is exciting.. but time consuming.

I guess I can trust that the tags will show the buttons on my live site once I approve the listing.

I'm not sure what you're approving here. It sounds like you have it working though (or at least ready to test on live), but if you need answers about the tags, just let us know.

Would I need two separate SClogin modules to accomplish that?

We don't have a way for social logins to redirect to different places. You can only configure the login (or registration) redirections in the Configuration area of JFBConnect. For standard Joomla Logins, yes, the SCLogin module has a separate option for Login redirection that can redirect the user to different places.

Is it possible to have the activation link log them in and open the poll?

That's Joomla's user registration/login system which we don't have control of. The activation link is completely generated by Joomla and there's not a way to have it track where a user originally registered from (or, where they started registering from, which is what matters) and then generate a specific link based on their registration flow. It's a neat idea, but would be pretty complex to implement properly.

I hope that helps explain some of the things you were looking for, but if you need anything else, please let us know.

Thanks,

I just watched your video. I am not sure why the tags is being hidden, but there's a few ways to test or check ahead of time:
* Set that review to "Special" access. Then, it should just be visible to administrators, but still act like it's normally published.
* Create another temporary review, add the tags, check and then delete it right away so that no one would see it.

Things to check:
* In the JFBConnect -> Social -> Misc tab, check if a "Social Tag Admin Key" is setup. If so, you need to add tags like {JFBCLogin tag=1234} where 1234 is your Social Tag Admin Key.

To be clear, you are confirming that I can use two SCLogin modules. Correct? If so, where would I find the equivalent of this code:

Ahhh.. that could be a problem. Yes, you can use multiple SCLogin modules. However, there should only be one configured for the modal popup. Our Javascript expects only one modal when it's launching, so the first one on the page is the popup that would display. I'm not sure if there's an easy way around that.

Where can I change the text that goes with the Joomla sent activation email?

In the Joomla language manager. Either create overrides through the administrator area or update the /language/xx_yy/xx_yy.com_users.ini file

I also need to confirm that when users login with any of the social buttons that an email is placed in their joomla profile.

Most social networks do return the email address of the user. Instagram, specifically, does not, and there may be others. But Facebook and Twitter definitely do return the email address and that will be added to the Joomla's user profile when their account is created. I'd recommend making sure the "Automatically link new users by email" setting is 'Yes' in JFBConnect so that, if the user already has an account on your site with that email address, their social account will connect to the Joomla account automatically and they won't need to go through any registration or linking process to connect them.

Finally, regarding Joomla, I think the future is bright. There is a lot of development going on for the new release and we're very excited for it. It's true though that Wordpress has the marketshare, which means there are more developers creating more plugins for it. That can be a good lure that we can't argue with, but I'd also say that Joomla has most extensions that most sites need.. and whether you have just a few options with Joomla or 30+ options with Wordpress (sometimes much lesser quality) options, the main important point is that the feature you need is available.

Just wanted to point out it would be key=1234 if you have a Social Admin Tag Key set, not tag
