Why do I need to create an account when I sign-in via FB?

To sign up.... we do

1) http://www.foodrubix.com/register 2) click Login with Facebook 3) walk through the instructions on allowing FB apps with permissions 4) should direct to http://www.foodrubix.com/<>

but now... the flow is 1 ~ 3 the same 4) show 'create account' page (with most of the things filled in except the password 5) http://www.foodrubix.com/<>

basically, I would thought that if I choose 'Login with Facebook', it does something what we called 'OpenID' and does not need to create a password for this foodrubix site, one less password to type/remember (even though they might be the same)

This is not needed but I thought that would be needed for being able to sign in using the normal way. I thought about it as well when I implemented it but thought that if people registered with Facebook and then later on wanted to log in using the normal way (username + password) then they couldn't because they wouldn't have a password registered in the site. I could just skip this extra step but then people will always have to log in using Facebook (or use the recover password page). If this is fine with you then I will remove that extra step.

So right now they can sign up with FB and also log in? Do you think it's better to have it both ways?

loicginoux commented 11 years ago

Yes right now they can log in with both methods. I thought it was better to have it both ways when I implemented it, but it's true that it is a bit redundant.

OK - let's leave it as is and revisit later to see if we think we should change it
