Hi, I have been struggling with trying to get Facebook login to work with my website. I originally tried to use fbLogin rc2, but it would not install from the package manager, giving me a "package could not be found" error every time. So I manually installed the fbLogin rc1 and gave it a shot and configured it per the read me instructions. What happened with rc1 was when a user would click the connect to facebook button, the site would go into an infinite redirect loop and would no longer load until the snippet call was taken out of the template. But it did create and add the user to the ModX user database.
Frustrated that I could not figure out how to stop it from doing the infinite redirect loop, I tried to install rc2 again, and this time it successfully installed. I believe it had to be something to do with having rc1 installed already that solved the install issue before because I had been trying for over a week to get rc2 to not fail installation. Anyway, where I stand now is with fbLogin rc2 configured properly per instructions of the readme and
http://www.hyper-typer.com/news/facebook-login-modx is that when a user clicks the facebook connect button, if they are not logged in to facebook in their browser, it will bring them to the facebook login page but when they click Login it will bring them to a white page that contains only the facebook connect logo button under my site url. Instead of redirecting them to the page id specified in the system settings. And if the user is already logged into facebook and clicks the facebook connect button they are brought to the same white page with the facebook connect button. The id that is linked to the facebook connect button click (after a user is logged into facebook) is one of the hidden pages created by the fbLogin installer, I do not know which one it is because they are hidden to me in the resource tree and I am not sure if there is a way to show hidden resources (this is my first website using ModX). But I can say it is the third hidden page, I know this because the id was 50 but then I unistalled and reinstalled fbLogin and the id changed to 53. It is still creating the users in the ModX user database also.
My php skills are very limited, so looking at the php files I am unable to come up with a reason as to why this is happening. I only changed the system settings via the installer all of the actual php code is unchanged.
Note: I have the Login addon configured and working properly with a dedicated login page, update profile page, and logout page. I configured the Login addon to work with the Personalize addon as well. My ModX version is: MODX Revolution 2.2.0-pl2 (traditional)
If you want to see for yourself, the site url is

So I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem or is having this problem. Any help with this issue would be much appreciated!
