Dolphin Social Connect

Dolphin Social Connect is a great module and I realize they have their own client ticket submission services.  This forum was created to address and troubleshoot issues with the module to help build on it.

I purchased the Dolphin Social Connect module and Modules2Buy was kind enough to install it on my website.

After installing the Facebook and Twitter API keys I wanted to try out logging in with my same email address I use for both my Dolphin website and LinkedIn.  I received the following error message:

"Email is exist.  Please try again!

Please enter your email address to sign up:"

This error message made me wonder:

1. Why did Dolphin Social Connect not recognize just connect the LinkedIn account to the Dolphin member? 

LinkedIn verified the email and password so there is not concern about a user account being hacked. 

Dolphin Social Connect should have recognized the current Dolphin website member and have a message similar to:

"Are you USERNAME?"

I would also like to suggest changing the error message to:

"There is an existing account associated with this email.  Forgot your password?"

Forgot your password should redirect to the password recovery part of Dolphin.

Hope this helps.

did ya ever get it figured out since it been quite some time? ...

maybe you can help me with this, where did i go wrong with this easy installation? This is when you use the facebook log in on the *social connect* and it logs the member facebook page in and gives the message ...

Error
An error occurred with (my site name). Please try again later.

can anyone tell me where i went wrong here?

 The person who posted this thread hasn't posted here in over a year so I doubt he'll see this. You might have better luck with the mod author. The mod info page says he has a ticket system on his website (modules2buy.com) or his email address is info@modules2buy.com

At the time of my original post I was using IBDW's Special, but the Dolphin Social Connect was not compatible and the author of the Dolphin Social Connect module let me know the intention was for the module to work with the standard version of Dolphin and not a heavily modified module [like IBDW's Special].  

IBDW's Special worked great for my 7.0.8 website, so I shelved the Dolphin Social Connect module because I felt at the time that the interface Dolphin needed more help than how people would sign up.

At the moment I am still not confident on spam protection on my Dolphin site so I have it set to invite only.  I have followed the spam forums on here for the past year (not commented because I had nothing worth contributing to the conversation).  Perhaps once I feel like the spam issue has been resolved I will open up the website for people to join however they prefer.  Until then I will continue to use 7.1 as an invite only and will not use the Dolphin Social Connect module.

I hope this helps.

thanks, i appreciate ur input :)
