Google Chrome not working with Facebook Connect [Solved] | Forum

Dear Sir/Madam


I have noticed that if you are using the browser Google chrome, Facebook connect on my website does not work, members have contacted me also stating that they cannot connect using Google chrome why is? and is there a fix for this issue, since most of my members use Google Chrome?


Kind regards


Stan Junior

Jospeh, on your site FB connect worked in Chrome for me.

Stan, on your site FB connect doesn't work for me at all ( tested in Chrome and Firefox).

1. So only some members can't log in on your site?
2. Can you test with a totally new member? ( the one who never loged in via FB)
3. Can you test with a member that used to log in before?
4. Enable DEBUG mode
5. Check your server's error logs.
6. This issues started only recently? Have you done any changes before you got the first report from your members? ( installed plugins, added custom html code...).

Sorry for so many questions. At this stage it is not clear why FB connect is not working on your site. Any additional info is appreciated.

Stan, no luck. Is not working for me.

Is it working for you now?
When did you add "Powered by Google Translate" to your site?

I deleted the local pluging powered by Google but the facebook connect still will not work, this is confusing, as when I click on facebook connect using Google Chrome on my computer it lets me in, but everyone else seems to have an issue with theres, so basically I cannot test the debug as it lets me in, unless you can test it for me, I really need to try and get this sorted out as most people use Google Chrome.

I added the local a while ago probably about the time that Google Chrome stopped working with Facebook connect.

It may well be that some members need to clear there catch on there web browser Stan . Things have not worked for me before ,then I have cleared my web browser catch and everything is ok .It was just a thought as some people can log in and some cant ,so its working ,so it has got to be something simple why this is happening .

That is so weird Stan,you can log in ,but othere members cant ,maybe some members need to update there google chrome ,or it might well be the opp system that some people have on there computers ,it has to be something like that.Its working Stan because you can log in ,its got to be something simple that is causing you this problem,if it was not working ,nobody would be able to log in.
