Hello James,

It looks like your language file is not updated for some reasons. Can you download the latest launcher and install EasySocial to ensure that the language files are intact?

Sure, can you also tell me what this integration does as we do use JFBConnect.

Thanks,
James

@Mark,

I updated from v1.2.3 in admin and had the same language issue above, at the moment the only way to obtain the correct language files is to download v1.2.4 and install via Extension Managaer, although the image in the JFBContent Integrations Box still does not show everything - the rest is ok (just letting you know).

I switched the 'Render JFBConnect Buttons' to Yes, purged expired cache, cleared cache and also browser cache, but there is no change on my site, in addition to James's question above, is there something else we need to do?

I can switch back to using the JFBConnect for EasySocial 1.2 Guide (attached) if the new process is not working, although this is only a temporary measure as it needs to be added to the core files each time there is an EasySocial update.

Hello,

Hm, if you have turned this option on, then JFBConnect buttons would then appear on the login forms. Is this not working? By the way, I'll need to check on those language issues. Perhaps it's due to the installer.

Perhaps I have missed something Mark as it is still not showing, I have attached access details to this post if you wish to check.

Additional Info:

If I set "Render JFBConnect Buttons" to NO, the EasySocial Facebook buttons appear perfectly on Dashboard, Login and Toolbar Menus (not Quick Reg Module), but when I move the "Render JFBConnect Buttons" to YES, the EasySocial Facebook buttons disappear (but the social identity/social account text above the buttons remains) and the JFBConnect Social buttons do not appear.

The 2 images below show how everything appears with EasySocial Facebook in image 1 and JFBConnect set to yes in image 2.

Okay, found the problem guys. It looks like the theme file somehow did not get included into the package. Also, there's a slight css fix necessary but this will be addressed in 1.2.5. To fix this, add the block of css codes into your template's css file,

body div#fd.es .jfbconnect-wrapper {

  text-align: center;

}



body div#fd.es .jfbconnect-wrapper .social-login > div{

    display: inline-block !important;

}



body div#fd.es .jfbconnect-wrapper .social-login .pull-left {

  float: none !important;

  margin: 0 !important;

}

body div#fd.es .jfbconnect-wrapper .social-login .pull-left a

{    

    display: inline-block !important;

}



body div#fd.es .jfbconnect-wrapper .social-login .pull-left a img{

    max-width: 90px;

}

As for the missing theme file, download the attached file and upload it into /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/facebook/

Not seeing any changes on my end as of yet (after updating files), well check again in a few.

James

James, could it be the cache? Try purging the cache

Thank you Mark, the JFBConnect buttons are appearing automatically now in Login, Dashboard and Dropdown Menus, see image below with Purity 3 template. There are some minor layout issues (text header in dropdown menu, not in one line in left hand Login Box and spacing between buttons) but they are easy to fix in custom.css if not possible to correct before v1.2.5 is released.

I assume the JFBConnect buttons in Quick Reg Module are for a later version as they were not part of this fix and that is fine, the manual fix in the word doc is still available (although I can now remove the sections on Login, Dashboard and Dropdown menus, leaving Quick Reg Module, EasyDiscuss, Komento and JReviews for anyone that needs it).

Nice fast work as always Mark, much appreciated!

Update:

The image in my post above is from the Login Menu, the image below is from the Dashboard menu, where the buttons appear perfectly in 1 line, so more than 1 line is only an issue in the Login Menu.

In summary, the minor issues are:

1. Buttons not in 1 line in the "Login to your Account" box in the Login Menu.

2. Text heading not visible in the Dropdown menu (for example Register/Login with Social Account)

3. A little bit more space between buttons if available within the forms.

Hey guys,

Wait up for 1.2.5. We'll be updating EasySocial shortly which addresses several issues with JFBConnect

Just tested with 1.2.5 on a new site. When a user who is not logged in clicks on a menu item in the ES dashboard view the corresponding registration/login area may or may not show the JFBConnect buttons as shown in the attached image. Note a special case "Groups" shows groups, that is intended perhaps?

Ref Eileen's post above in v1.2.5 the following paths are taken for the social menu items:

.../login

My Profile
Friends
Followers
Apps
Activity Log

.../social

Dashboard
Photos
Achievements
Points

.../social/groups

Groups

The Group path is the only one that does not show (correctly) any social buttons as the path itself is wrong for someone who is not logged in.

I assume all the above should always go to ../social for any menu item using the EasySocial 'Dashboard' layout and ../login for any menu item using the EasySocial 'Login' Layout or perhaps ../login for all of them is the best option.

Ref my earlier post:

In summary, the minor issues are:

1. Buttons not in 1 line in the "Login to your Account" box in the Login Menu.

2. Text heading not visible in the Dropdown menu (for example Register/Login with Social Account)

3. A little bit more space between buttons if available within the forms.

Item 1 is now solved with v1.2.5, item 3 can be handled through custom.css but item 2 is still outstanding.

Ref my post above, I use the following set up:

1. Login/Register Menu with EasySocial Login Layout (Visible to Guests Only, disappears when logged in)
2. EasySocial Logout Action Menu (Visible to Registered Members Only, replacing 'Login/Register' in place on MainMenu bar when people login)
3. Social Menu with EasySocial Dashboard Layout with 'Display Login Screen for Guests' set to NO for Frosty in the Themes Section (Menu Visible to Public)
4. When a member logs in they are re-directed to the Social Menu page.
5. Member/Account information is available as a sub-menu to the Login/Logout menu.

Therefore visitors can see the stream with whatever public content members allow to be seen and login/logout is always available on the MainMenu.

It is perfectly feasible to use the Login Dropdown Menu Module and assign it to a position on the main navbar of the template, but the above works for me and means I only need all the social menu items in my post above to go to the ../login path but others may have a different set up so pick the solution for my above post that you believe is best for everyone.

Hello,

Can you guys please create a new topic separately on the forums as this is getting very messy

New topic created here for social menu issues

Thank you Richard

@James and Mark

The original query raised by James in this thread is fixed, so to allow the thread to be marked Resolved/Closed (if James wishes to do so) I will move the remaining minor questions I raised to a new thread if they are still outstanding after upgrading to v 1.2.6.

The query raised by Eileen has been resolved in another thread.

Yes, please do create a new post in the forums. We're finding it hard to manage threads because it goes way too long and reading it requires a lot of patience (hehe, sorry no pun intended) but yeah, it's much faster if we get a clearer picture of the issue
