I would be very grateful :) BTW, the Facebook buttons doesn't work in IE8?

Offtopic - I'll soon contribute many plugins and some tutorials. Like: youtube importer, how to make youtube gallery from pages, featured content slider using nivo slider (and page avatar plugin), custom filter in lists, etc. I just have to finish my current work and correct some bugs. Cotonti is great :)

I have to test it somewhere. This site doesn't use that plugin currently.

Hi,

Did anybody solve the problem with logouts?

I have to click the facebook logout button twice in order for it to logout. Can this be something about javascript?

FaceBook actually uses HMAC. It protects the auth data from getting sniffed and decomposed. But I need to investigate if it helps from XSS, because an XSS attacker does not decompose anything, he just uses the cookie as it is.

Even if does not protect from XSS, it might be a good improvement because it is more reliable than current mechanism based on random session identifiers.

Something what we forgot of:

Wikipedia:
Another mitigation present in IE (since version 6), Firefox (since version 2.0.0.5), Safari (since version 4) and Google Chrome, is a HttpOnly flag which allows a web server to set a cookie that is unavailable to client-side scripts. While beneficial, the feature does not fully prevent cookie theft nor can it prevent attacks within the browser.

We've been using HttpOnly flag for quite long time. So, I think that for most sites ipcheck can be disabled by default and enabled on sites where security is much more important than user comfort (e.g. banking, e-stores, etc.).

Another thing to allow logins from multiple devices is using HMAC instead of random session keys (because such random keys are often changed).

I'm pretty sure it's IP check. On other sites I have it disabled and there it works fine.
Strangely it usually works fine when tethering mobile's 3G to my notebook, using the notebook for browsing, but on mobile itself, or on iPad (3G) it mostly keeps logging out. It differs though, because sometimes it works fine on mobile as well. I guess it's just a matter of what mobile broadcasting station I'm connected to. As long as it's the same one the IP doesn't change. At least that's my explanation. This morning I was on a train so it makes sense that the IP keeps changing.

A collegue suggested looking into HMAC for authentication, which doesn't require a DB query, but maybe that only works for always-running scripts like Python.

That probably might be caused by IP changing frequently. It would be nice if we knew for sure if these logouts are really caused by IPcheck. I have uploaded a fix for this redirect problem, let me know how it works now.

Just wanted to say the facebook thing has an issue. If I'm on mobile (which would normally mean I'd keep logging out), the FB plugin apparently logs me back in every time, but it always redirects back to the last page I was on. The effect of this is that I can no longer visit any page except that one page, because if I visit another page, I will be logged out, logged back in again by FB connect, and redirected back to the page I was on before.

Try this:


{HEADER_DOCTYPE}






http://www.cotonti.com" />




{HEADER_HEAD}
{HEADER_BASEHREF}


{HEADER_COMPOPUP}
{HEADER_TITLE}




    
        
            
                

	                 
                    {PHP.L.Login} • {PHP.L.Register} • {PHP.skinlang.header.Lostyourpassword}
                    {PHP.skinlang.header.Welcome}
{FB_LOGIN}
	                

	                
                    {HEADER_USER_LOGINOUT}
                    {HEADER_LOGSTATUS}
                    {HEADER_USER_ADMINPANEL} | {HEADER_USERLIST} | {HEADER_USER_PROFILE} | {HEADER_USER_PFS} | {HEADER_USER_PMREMINDER}
{HEADER_NOTICES}
	                

                
                
                    {PHP.cfg.menu1}
                    {PHP.L.Home}

But it won't work anyways because you have not registered your site as FaceBook application and have not filled AppId config.

You have inserted that tag into . What I meant is editing the existing tag on top of the template by adding the {FB_XMLNS} part to it.

In header.tpl make sure you have XML namespace set:

and don't forget the actual login button {FB_LOGIN}. There are several other tags depending on what kind of buttons you want to use or construct yourself. More button options may be found in FB developer docs.

It logs you in automatically if it finds an existing facebook connection linked to your Cotonti account.

Added 8 hours 23 minutes later:

Well, guys, current version is ready for testing. You can grab it here.

What this plugin enables your visitors to do:

Login to your site using their FaceBook account
Register new account on your site with some fields prefilled by FaceBook
Link existing account with FaceBook account
Logout from both your site and FaceBook (separate logout is not technically possible if accounts are linked and logged in)

Notice that you have to register your site as FaceBook application in order to use it. FB developer docs are located here. Apart from installing the plugin and filling the configuration (AppId, Secret), don't forget to put tags into your header.tpl.

Logging out from Facebook should fix that.

I wonder if using FBconnect also fixes the issue of getting logged out when using a mobile phone connection.

Trustmaster

Di, 18 Jan 2011 17:17:38 -0000

Yes, this is because fbconnect logs you back again when you logout with Cotonti. I'll fix it a bit later.

Since the plugin is here on the site, I can't logout.
If I click logout, I get to the homepage BUT still logged in.

It is actually FaceBook Connect plugin which I'm currently developing and testing on this site. Built with latest FB API, it will be finally available for download after I complete it.
