Probably FAQ #26.

Nothing with their API, but yes, they annoyingly/randomly seem to change their URL scheme without warning.

Ah gotcha. Based on what you describe, it sounds like this is a question much more suited for the Elementor folks – they should provide some hook/filter that they invoke before updating, which you could then use to force their plugin to re-check post_content & pull it into elementor_data. Alternatively, if they don’t provide such a hook/filter (which I think is unlikely, but just to cover all bases) you might be able to use one of the standard core hooks that occurs before saving content to i.e. clear elemetor’s post_meta for that post, which seems like their plugin would then see as ‘blank’ and then fetch the original post_content again. Again though, this is really a question for them as it pertains to how their plugin is functioning, rather than mine ??

Sorry, I’m really not familiar with elementor or what would be needed to make them work together, but if it’s a relatively small/non-impactful change & you’d like to submit a patch, I could definitely commit it to the main plugin so you don’t have to worry about it getting overwritten by future updates ??

This has nothing to do with Facebook. As it states, none of those 8 pages have a valid gallery tag.

I repeat: specifically, what is the behavior you’re seeing? Step by step, what do you do and what is the result

(I have multiple test sites and none of them are exhibiting any issues. I just checked in with another user, and he also doesn’t see any issues. I’m not sure how you may have determined that “facebook has changed something,” as from what I see in their changelog, nothing has been deprecated for several weeks. Basically, without clear steps there is no way for me to reproduce your issue – “nothing is displayed” is unfortunately just too vague to be actionable).

Please elaborate – specifically, what is the behavior you’re seeing? Step by step, what do you do and what is the result

My bad – sorry about that! Just committed another update that fixes it.

Hi; this is answered in the documentation – please see the section “Custom Login Buttons” (php function: jfb_output_facebook_btn()).

Fair enough.

For what it’s worth, I have had several dozen new user activations since this was reported, & still no other mentions of activation issues. I’ve also activated it on a few more sites myself. So it seems pretty clear that the above 2 cases were isolated, my guess is caused by something like a 3rd party browser addon or some nonstandard browser settings that broke the Facebook login cookie. In any case…glad you found another solution that wasn’t affected by whatever those settings were.

Thanks to Raval’s direct submission, I understand what this issue was trying to refer to. Added a FAQ in the plugin documentation to address it:

@orgassist: what do you mean by “get kicked out of the site”? Which site? What’s actually happening?

Have you (both) tried a different browser? Again, it’s still working for me, and I’ve tested it on 2 separate PCs and with 2 separate Facebook accounts, once of which has never used this plugin before (to simulate a first-time setup).

Please submit a support request via the support page, including all the requested information. The above is far too vague for me to even guess at what’s going on.

That can happen if the Facebook user changes/deletes their profile photo, or if Facebook themselves change their overall URL scheme (sometimes they don’t for a very long time). There’s a feature I implemented in the premium addon to counter act that (it will download the photo locally to your server, and use the local copy, so no matter what changes on FB or no matter how long the user don’t login, it will remain as their most-recent profile photo until the next time they login).
