    Thumbs Up IT Guy - Forums and Facebook

    Just within the past months or so haven't been able to log into the EAA forums without first logging out of FB.
    Keep getting the error - "too many redirects". Cleared ALL the cookies as required for the error. Still a no-go.
    After logging out of FB then coming back here it asks to log in via FB?
    I close the window then try again, it then brings me to the forums main page where I can log in normally with my EAA credentials.

    Another thing noticed. I "can" get to the forums main page and any sub forums while logged into FB. It's when I click on a topic that the errors occur.
    No sense going to a forum if one can't read anything.

    Looked all over the settings and maybe I'm missing something - Is there a way to turn off FB integration here?

    TIA for any help.

    EDIT - Finally found the setting (I hope) - Settings | My Settings | My Account | Edit Connections
    Turned that bugger off!
    Just FYI - there's still something wrong though if FB connections are used.

    EDIT Again - Waited over night for things to propagate. No, still doesn't work.
    Found that an easy workaround is to use the "Incognito" mode. (Chrome)

    I just noticed this same problem. I was using Chrome, jumped over to Safari (MacBook Pro) and had no issues logging in BUT I don't use Facebook on Safari.

    Any ideas?

    I am using Firefox for both these forums & facebook & haven't had any problems. As near as I can tell this site doesn't know I use facebook, but I only come here on my PC. I have Firefox set to not accept 3rd party cookies.

    This issue should be fixed! Please let me know if there are still any issues.

    Glory,

    The Facebook bug seems fixed - Thanks!

    Now,,, could you hop over to Webs.com and fix that. LOL
    Since the 1st of the year it's been under multiple server maintenance down times.
    I believe the servers were transferred to some new cloud server farm in Illinois. (forget the name, reviews not good)
    Since the newest maintenance (19Jan17) sitebuilder is super slow or fails and most time the resulting site doesn't load completely if it doesn't throw a 503.
    Maybe patience is needed for propagation. ( FB comments from others )

    Just venting.
    Thanks again!
