:sad:
On the ODUDE pages I see

COM_ODUDEPROFIL E_NAME instead of the real Text.
I removed it now, as it seems not to work at all, when a user logs in with a NON facebook user to my site.
I didn't find an ALWAYS working facebook login for my site. Once working, then not working, then no logout, no login.
thanks for instruction
Dino


Did you install ODude Profile 2.3.5 which has fixed issues related to language files.
Facebook login depends on javascript which may behave indifferently.

Hi, I have followed all instructions and double checked. When I logon to Facebook and select "profile" from the menu link I made to your component, I get the error message: Only for Registered Members.

Set the parameters at ODude Profile and click on SAVE at least once.
