Just want to confirm OneAll login behavior for imported JR accounts
Using Jamroom
iLoveHouseMusic:So, I just want to make sure I understand this. I think I asked this before on the JR4 forum....
I have my JR4 site imported.
On Jr5 site, I will install and configure OneAll Module.
User clicks (say) Facebook login to login. The email they use on Facebook, is the same email as registered on the JR5 site.
1. The user will be asked to agree to TOS
2. The authentication process will see that the email address already exists in JR5, and will authenticate the user to their existing account, NOT create a new one. Correct?
Correct - as long as the email address matches.
Quote:Sorry if I sound like a broken record, I had a bad taste in my mouth w/ the Facebook Connect JR4 module, and I'm hoping OneAll is able to see the existing account.
I understand this, but please be prepared to have issues with OneAll as well - anytime you link up with FB in any way, there
will be issues. FB as a "platform" is just too big, and too unstable to be problem free. So just be prepared that:
- sometimes you will not get an email address for a user, even though one is configured in their FB account
- sometimes you will not get an image, even though they have a user image on FB
These are not even issues with OneAll, but are due to the security settings on FB's end. FB has added/modified/changed the security settings so many times, that many (I'd say the majority) of Facebook accounts have not been updated/modified, so they are "stuck" on old config's for their user accounts.
So just a heads up
