Password and Access rights - Facebook was created by myaviation

Just trying to figure out this new and cool feature..

So if I implement this new plugin.. and a new user can use there FACEBOOK account to access my site..

Do they get registered as a user then?

ie if i have 1000 users and 10 new ones use the facebook login (not users before) do i now have 10 more users and i can see them in my USERS...
As I run a JOB posting section and say a new biz comes in wanting to post a job.. But they signed in with there facebook account - Can I then merg there facebook user to there JOB account.. Also to i have SOBI2 running as well can I do that as well with a user to manage there stuff on my site

Password - where does the users change there password? Does anything get stored on my site? Hope not..

Do i need to do anything with facebook - do i need a special page with them? or an account to do this..

Thanks for your info..

Yes.

Yes.

Not sure I understand, merge their Facebook account with their existing CB account? No, you'd need to take their Facebook ID from their new account and place it on their existing account then delete their new account. If the user wants to "Link" the accounts they must first sign in as normally then via Facebook.

Password - where does the users change there password? Does anything get stored on my site? Hope not..

The user is given a randomly generated password, of course the user is stored into Joomla/CB. User can change this password at anytime of course and still login via Facebook perfectly fine.

Do i need to do anything with facebook - do i need a special page with them? or an account to do this..

Of course you need a Facebook account, you need to create a Facebook application which is used in conjunction with the plugin; Please see instructions in documentation.

Ok thanks for you comments..

Is it hard to make up a "Of course you need a Facebook account, you need to create a Facebook application which is used in conjunction with the plugin; Please see instructions in documentation. "

Do you need to be a programmer or something?

As i just want the user to connect wiht there facebook account.. thats all..

The instructions in the documentation are very detailed and should be easy to follow.

You do not need to be a programmer.

Please note that we do not 'per say' sell the Facebook Connect plugin, but we offer it along with 12 other CB Team addons as a thank you to our CB Documentation subscribers supporting further development of our FREE Community Builder suite. As of March 19th, the CB Documentation subscription fee will be increasing by 10 euros. Just giving you a heads up so you don't miss up on the opportunity to save this 10 euro amount.

Even at 35 euros (new price), the 13 extra addons you get would still be a bargain.

End of sales pitch
