FB.getLoginStatus returns status unknown

Question

When calling FB.getLoginStatus using a valid Facebook App the response status is always unknown. Exact response is {authResponse: undefined, status: \"unknown\"}.

Answer 1

This was happening for me in Chrome, and was because Chrome was configured to block third-party cookies and data.

Once I made that configuration change, FaceBook is able to log me into my app without a problem.
