How does one request extended permissions? Adding a :perms key to the hash <%#= authlogic_facebook_login_button :text => 'Login with Facebook', :v => 2, :perms => "email,user_birthday" %> causes the FBML to render as <form id='connect_to_facebook_form' method='post' action='/user_session'> <input type='hidden' name='authenticity_to...
Authlogic, by itself, seems to be too active record centric for MongoDB (specifically mongomapper) as per: http://github.com/binarylogic/authlogic/issues#issue/15. However, there's an interesting authlogic plugin for mongo that looks pretty awesome, and simple. Has anyone used this, or have any experience/recommendations for an authlo...
I use authlogic to authenticate users. In my controllers I use current_user, defined (as documented) as follows: def current_user_session return @current_user_session if defined?(@current_user_session) @current_user_session = UserSession.find end def current_user return @current_user if defined?(@current_user) @cur...
I'm using Authlogic as the login system. Everything is working correctly except that it never updates the failed_login_count field when I purposely type in the wrong password. I am using the email as the login item. In the database there is no 'login' column. Is there something that I need to change or add to make this feature work? ...
I have a section in my main layout like the following. I am starting to use memcached and wondering if this portion can be cached somehow becasue the current_user call makes a hit to the database for every page load and by nature of the plugin (authlogic) thats behind it, it actually updates the user record (i.e. the perishable token). ...
In my controller i have an action which does not have a corresponding view. Precisely: the upload action for uploading images. However, i require the current users id to store the image url. But the current_user method always returns nil, as the action by itself does not have a view. In such scenarios how do i fetch the current_user? I a...

Hi. Everything seems to be working fine with my implementation of Facebooker with Authlogic (using the authlogic_facebook_connect plugin) except for one thing. After the initial authorization of the application (by clicking OK on the Facebook pop-up) I still remain on the login page. There is no redirection. However, once I refresh the...
I have successfully integrated facebook connect in my rails app with authlogic. The problem is that if try to update the profile details of the facebook user there is a validation error that the password field cannot be blank.

I've got a rails app with a functioning restful_authentication system but I need to add password reset (never got around to it before...). Also I'm going to be probably adding things like invitations and some features that don't require login. And to be honest I was never completely happen with the way that restful authentication invaded...
Good morning, I'm trying to figure out the best way to manage this user situation I've got. I have users and affiliates. There is already a HABTM relationship between the two of them, because users can sign up for affiliates, and affiliates can reach out and touch users, in order to get various data points. Now I need to set up a new...
I implemented authlogic for my authentication system. I was hoping if there was a method to log in users by "username" OR "email" . The solution provided here http://goo.gl/Ato1 doesn't work as I don't have a "login" field in the database. So is it that, I am missing the "login" field in the db? OR is there any other way of handling it?...

I figured out this config option acts_as_authentic do |c| c.require_password_confirmation=false end When I do this, it ignores password_confirmation during...
Hi, I'm trying to follow the tutorial at http://github.com/kalasjocke/authlogic_facebook_connect#readme and getting stuck at the $ script/generate xd_receiver line. It gives an error: Couldn't find 'xd_receiver' generator I read up on similar issues, which said to install the typhoeus gem. I did that and I also made sure that my fac...

I can not get a :include_blank => true or a :prompt => true t...
This question is specifically for the user holden, but of course if anyone else can answer that works too.. Using the example at: http://github.com/holden/authlogic_openid_selector_example Is the openid code required to get the facebook connect working or are these parts of the example independent? I'm trying to get the kalasjocke fa...
