Hey there! Thanks for looking into my site.

Yes, you are right, my CB is a bit old and it's still the RC version. I will be upgrading soon.

One weird thing that I noticed with the integration is that in the first login, all seems to be working fine. But when I logout and login again for the second time, single sign in doesn't work anymore.

I already contacted a developer (since I really have little knowledge on php) and he is working on the site as well. He also noticed the logout and login again problem. What he noted however is that instead of getting the username and password, the component seems to use the fb user ID and the fb key for the second login. This happens when the bridge tries to login to Moodle and phpBB. Now he is creating a workaround for this.

I hope this helps when you release the next version. Keep you posted once we make it work.

Thanks!

Ahhh. That's excellent information. It's very true that that is what would be used as the login name/password because that's how our authentication plugin knows that the user is really logging in through Facebook. It's a little trick we play on the system, but I can see how it affects other plugins that are snooping the login information.

Let us know what your developer finds out, and we'll do some testing on our end with jFusion and PHPBB. It won't be an immediate fix, but if we can come up with a better authentication method that improves this situation, we're all for it. About once every other month, someone runs into an issue with jFusion (and they always seem different depending on what they're 'fusing' with), so we'd love to eliminate those conflicts.

Thanks, and keep us posted. We'll do the same.
