Facebook Authentication Joomla Plugin enable Facebook login and the authentication. It forwards authentication credentials provided by the user to the Facebook server, then relays the authentication decision of the mail server back to your Joomla website.
It's not necessary have a Facebook AppID.
The installation procedure is standard, then upload the zip file, enable the plugin and try to login with your Facebook credentials.
Optional: Add an facebook icon to your "login module" maybe using the "Pre-text" parameter. So the users will know they can choose different type of authentication.
Need demo? Try this website! You can chose between normal register and login form or and external authentication with Facebook o Gmail, but using the same joomla login form.

This plugin need cURL library installed on your server!
To install or setup cURL on your Linux machine like Ubuntu, run the following line of shell command in your terminal:
sudo apt-get install curl libcurl3 libcurl3-dev php5-curl
Be sure that the curl extension it's enable in php.ini :
extension=php_curl.so
Now you have PHP cURL installed, the next thing you need to do is to restart apache2, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Specifically, if I try to log in with my facebook credentials, I fail to do so and and at the same time my Facebook account gets locked -and I have to answer questions in order to restore it- with the message saying that it has done so because someone has attempted to login to it from an unknown location, that being the location of the server hosting the website.
Can this be fixed?
Cheers
I have not tried more than once in a short time...
Just now I tried to login with my facebook credentials - first time since yesterday, I got the problem...
...I got logged out of my facebook account and I had to answer security questions to verify my identity
I have tried it out but unfortunately the problem persists...don't wrong...
My website is www.eks-ik.eu
The login/register form is at the top of the website page wrapped into a dropdown through "HOT Login" extension. the dropdown reads "Σύνδεση"
...I tried to login with my facebook details (email-password), it did register an account and it lead me to a page where I was able to set desired username and password...
That's how it's supposed to work, right?
Don't know why it failed the last time I tried to do it with the new plugin version...maybe I had another relevant extension published and it conflicted?? (I was trying out different available extensions)
Not sure, but it seems to work...
Now I only have to find an override to be able to use my antispam "EasyCalcCheckPL US" plugin...(it prevented registration with all relevant extensions...all the previous tests were made with that plugin disabled)
I do not manage to connect with my facebook account because I use a particular login such as toto+fb
it is not work with this plugin
I tried with a regular login and it work well
I just downloaded ur plugin, and uploaded it to my site!
I enabled the Facebook autentichation, then I refreshed my site and tryed to login with my facebook account, but I couldn't...i get this message: "Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet.".
Can you help me?
My site: www.archandart.eu
The plugin is enabled!
There are no plugins what are in conflict with this one.
When I try to login in with my facebook account, nothing happens, but I get a message, that someone is trying to login to my facebook account in my facebook!
Thanks...
Installed your plugin to test and I face the following problems:
When logging in with a valid local userid and pass, I get the following warning:
Warning: file(cookies13214547352909) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\AppServ\www\ test_pean\plugi ns\authenticati on\FB.php on line 78
Warning: preg_grep() expects parameter 2 to be array, boolean given in C:\AppServ\www\ test_pean\plugi ns\authenticati on\FB.php on line 78
Also when I logging in with a facebook account (e-mail) that already exists as a local user I get an error
Can you help with these, please.
Now I have the following problem. When I login with a facebook account I get the following message:
For security reasons, you must pass the remote ip to reCAPTCHA
What do I have to do? There is no reCAPTCHA on my login page!
And there is still the second problem I mentioned:
"Also when I logging in with a facebook account (e-mail) that already exists as a local user I get an error"
Is there any way to overcome this?
Thank you for your help
I installed it and it is working properly. Thanks :)
Now I have a question...the forum I use allows guest to read...and with your plugin the username is set to email...so it would be visible..is there another way to hide the "username" (email in this case) from guests in Kunena? thanks, nat from portugal
