Version 1.1.0

You're correct, the 1.1 version doesn't have that ability. It was something we investigated, but had already made a lot of changes and didn't want to add another complication on top of it.

However, with that said, it should be a pretty easy process to help you make a few minor code changes to hide and prefill those fields in now. Can you tell me what you'd like the username to look like? For JFBConnect, we offer the following (similar) options:
1) The LinkedIn Identifier for the user. This is basically a random string, and not what we'd recommend.
2) FirstName.LastName (john.smith)
3) First 3 letters of first followed by first 3 letters of last (johsmi)

Let me know, and we can look into the best way to implement the above in the current v1.1 release. It may take a few days, but we should be able to get you going!

Thanks,
Alex

Well, aren't you the go-getter

You sound like you're editing the exact file we would have recommended. If you want to post your code, we can tell you if there are any issues we can see with what you've done. To hide the fields, you simply want to add the following lines:That should be added after the following line in view.html.php:I'm assuming that's where you're adding your code already to pre-populate, so it should be familiar. If you need help though, please let us know.

Thanks,

Glad we're making progress!

There's not really an easy way to make the SCLogin form the default. We're planning an option to automatically add the "Login With LinkedIn" button to the standard Joomla login area in the future, but just not there yet. In the meantime, what you mention is probably the best way to do what you're looking for. We would recommend creating a template override for the login view by copying components/com_users/views/login/tmpl/default_login.php to /templates/<YOUR_TEMPLATE>/html/com_users/login/default_login.php and editing there. That ensures you won't loose changes as you upgrade Joomla.

The only other option I can think of is to create a Joomla article, explain why the user should login and add the {JLinkedLogin} tag to that article. Then, using the Joomla Redirection in Joomla 2.5, redirect the standard Joomla login page (index.php?option=com_users&view=login) to that article. Could cause other issues with the redirection after the user logs in back to where they were coming from, but worth a shot.

Hope that helps, and let us know it goes!

stephernandez,
Just wanted to check in and see if you still needed anything. Sounds like you are so close, that I'd like to just make sure it's all finished up.

Whenever you are done, we'd love it if you'd consider leaving a rating and review on the Joomla Extension Directory for JLinked, or our support. It's certainly not required, but very appreciated:

Thanks, and good luck,
Alex

No problem. Glad to hear you got it going. Should you need anything else, we'll be here. We're also (always) looking for input on how you think we can improve JLinked, so if you have any other suggestions or feedback, let us know!

Thanks,
Alex
