Linking auto a FB account to an existing WP account

  • Hi,

    I have seen that when a WP account is existing with an email
    and when a user connect with a facebook account attached to the same email
    The plug-in is not linking them together and worse :
    it creates a new account attached to the Facebook but having no email stored in the WP profile because this email is already used in the other existing WP account.

    In that case it would be necessary to associate the newly created account associated to the Facebook account to the the existing WP account which have the same email and not create a new account in WP

    Can you send me a fix for that and include that fix in next version ?

    Thanks

    Jean-Regis

    Hi!

    This connect by email feature is implemented in the plugin. Please open
    \nextend-facebook-connect.php

    Find this line:
    $ID = email_exists($user_profile['email']);

    And add this line of code after the quoted line:

    var_dump($ID, $user_profile['email']);
exit;

    Then delete that user which has no email address and try to log in again.

    It should write out two variable, the first contain the $ID of the user which has that email address. If it is null, then WordPress was unable to locate your email address. Second one is the email address what was checked. Please verify if it is the same what you are using on your site.

    If the ID and the email seems find, please write here and we can continue the debugging.
