Hello Kevin,

Hm, not really sure how to reproduce this issue but could you copy the link that was generated on the email and paste it here so that we can try to reproduce this issue on your site?

Hi Mark, I have removed you guys login to the site but can recreate it if you need it. However the link below should render the problem for you. So in the email I just got it was from a user accepting my friends request. The link there says "View Profile" and if I click it I am sent into and endless loop that generates an error if I am not logged in.

Different browser behave differently for this. If I click the below link in FF I get a page error here "http://leagueses.org/lses-community/login", and if I do it in Chrome I get this page "http://leagueses.org/login". IE spins and ends showing the link with no change telling me the page cannot be displayed. NOTE: All my browsers are updated as of today.

Click this link:

Also if after you get the error and go to the main site there is a very long error list telling you that you need to login first. No idea why it does this? Maybe disabling error reporting is the best choice? I currently have it set to system default.

I am wondering if this has something to do with JFBConnect? I was never able to make it work right so I disabled it and uninstalled it. I see now that the link in the footer to login has a redirection loop as well. I think there may be some issue with Joomla and how the users login that is causing this problem. I went through everything and cannot see where it should be an issue but clearly it is.

Hello Kevin,

Sorry for the late reply. And thanks for the explanation. I can't really sure what is the issue. You might want to provide us your backend and FTP access so we can try to debug it.

So you are saying when you click the link you are not getting an error instead of a login page?

Hello Kevin,

It looks like when I clicked on the link, it's displaying an error from the browser and it states "The page isn't redirecting properly". Are you referring to this error?

This is most likely caused by incorrect menu setup where the menu "lses-community" is set to "Registered" only. If the user is not logged in, Joomla tries to redirect them to it's own login form but our "System - EasySocial" plugin tries to capture this event and redirect to EasySocial's login form instead. However, the viscous cycle continues because all of the menus that was created for EasySocial was set to "Registered" only.

Yes that is the problem I am having and I have identified the login as having a problem. Ever since I removed JFBConnect the login function does not work any more.

Do you have any menu items for EasySocial that is set to the access level of "Public"? If you don't, you should create a menu item that links to the login layout and set that as public.

Which plugin is it that ES uses to redirect the user trying to login? I thought it might be the authentication -easysocial or user-easyscoial but disabling them does nothing. I have the login menu set to public but unless I make EasySocial public it fails. So I guess I am not able to have a private group?

Thanks Mohd, that was the answer that solved my problem. I had a login menu item but it was using the default Joomla login module. I did not think to setup the login that is provided by ES. I changed the Joomla login module to the ES login module and all problems have been solved. Thanks for the help and bearing with me guys...
