login user without password

[Frank Vèssia]

Hello guys I've been searching for a way to login users without password (after they login with facebook button), I've found some api functions that seem to be working but I still have some issue.
What I do is:

$checkUser = $users->get("login_facebook_id=$uid");
if($checkUser->id){
         $users->setCurrentUser($checkUser);
         $user = $users->getCurrentUser();
         $session->_user_id = $user->id;
         $session->redirect("/",false);
 }

 

The code looks working because after setting the session the current $user->id returns the user I found, but after the redirect $user id back to guest (40)...any idea why ? Thanks
