I think you need to disable Facebook plugin and the Open Id and then re enable the Open Id one first.

I have read that Facebook uses a combo of OAuth and Open Id and there may be conflicts.

Try to disable all the plugins and then enable Open Id before you enable any other login api type of plugin.

no joy still the same

OpenId plugin started up first then facebook login, no other plugin running

I encountered that issue when I developed my Steam SignIn plugin. In my case, the code to change was the one described in this post.

Some of these authenticators will not hand over emails. I believe twitter doesn't give you an email.

In the case of OpenID the provider doesn’t have to return information it doesn't want to.

That is correct. There is an issue with the core OpenID plugin, though, which causes the email address to be wiped after the user entered it. That is, the User would enter the address, submit it and the site would ask for it again.

well they are trying to get the email from the provider, rather then from what is entered.

There is some issues with using with emails for account linking, which is why additional steps are needs.
