I would like the users on my DNN website to associate their accounts with their Facebook account. Once this is done, they should be able to login with either the website UN/PW or Facebook.

I currently have Facebook login integrated on the website using a 3rd party module. But the way it works is, that it creates a new user whenever a new profile is used for login. Instead of that, I'd like current users to specify their Facebook profiles in some way and then use it for login if they wish.

I am not sure if this is even possible. Any input appreciated!

I was going to suggest third party module but you already using one, but i guess there's third party module do what you need and even better I guess such features will be included in coming version of dotnetnuke as it will be more social.

Thank you Haythem Hassan, unfortunately I could not find a 3rd party module to do what I need. All the modules that I found creates a user when a person logs in with Facebook the first time. The next time this user logs in with the same FB a/c info, the associated user information is used. What I would like to do is that let my existing users associate their FB a/c with the website user a/c. Once they do this, they should be able to use either info to log in.

I would appreciate if you could quote the module you think that can do this, since I couldn't find one myself. Yet :)
