Facebook login to JT

[Keith Clements]

Some members complain about the difficulty of logging into JT.
Yes you need to register and perhaps you find that a bit complicated, but once that is done you can then use your Facebook account to log into JT by clicking the Facebook button on the login page of JT.

But you do need to allow that facility in your JT profile by going to Manage external account associations.
Do this by clicking on User Control Panel in the menu that drops down when you mouse over your name in the top right. Then chose the Profle tab, and then the Manage external account associations panel.

You will then see this in the address bar of JT .

Click on the Link button to create your Facebook link. JT will contact Facebook to identify you which will remember the link and send an authorization token to JT.

You see that JT has remembered the token that it will send to Facebook the next time you click the Facebook login button.
When you next go to the JT Login page and click the Facebook button, Facebook asks you for permission to link to JT .

If you click Continue then Facebook, you will enter the Homepage of JT. Voila!

Subsequent clicks on the Facebook button on the login page may not ask this again, so it becomes a one click login and you do not have to remember any credentials.
