Social Auth

[dimabuko]

Hi!

I want to use any plugin for social login/sign up on my site with SMWP but not sure is it possible?
I found that post: https://simple-membership-plugin.com/forums/topic/any-way-to-use-social-login-plugins-with-this/ and it said that I can use any plugin.
Also that post: https://simple-membership-plugin.com/forums/topic/id-like-to-use-this-plugin-with-social-login/ and it said that it’s impossible.

So is some plugins for social login were tested?

Hi, I have not tested this myself. So I guess you could try one or more social login plugins. Then you could report back with your findings.

Thank you

Hi.

I tested your plugin with WordPress Social Login. It works but not correctly.

After login with social network (for example instagram) you are logged to site as WordPress User but not logged as a Simple Membership User (you haven’t access to posts etc.)

May be I need to do some tricks after normal wordpress authorisation to force SMWP auth?

Hi, can you provide more information about the login process you are currently using with the WordPress Social Login plugin?

Thank you

Hello.

Today I tested SMWP with some other social auth plugins. And all of them have the same issue and don’t works.

So now I’ll describe this issue.

Every social plugin insert social login buttons in http://your-site/wp-login.php below the Default login form.
Also many of them propose a short code to implement these buttons in your templates or pages.

For example, it could looks like here:

Here I added instagram login below the default SMWP form (it is customised with css, but it is really default SMWP login form, url — http://lililove.me/membership-login/).

Then you create app on Instagram (Facebook, etc, doesn’t matter) and try to log in with your social profile.
And it works but partly.

Here is a screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/emzsyh62r2ndw07/Screenshot%202016-07-27%2015.03.18.png?dl=0
As you can see there looks like user is logged in, because there is black wordpress admin panel on top (and username is displayed). So that is user is logged in. I can do anything like wordpress user, I have admin rights.

But when you try to get access to any protected page or post, or to page Edit Profile for SMWP it says to you that:
You are not logged in. Screenshot (but in Russian): https://www.dropbox.com/s/1d78q0zbkliwbw3/Screenshot%202016-07-27%2015.03.24.png?dl=0

So there is a problem. Looks like wordpress user is logged in, but SMWP user is not at the same time.
I tested a lot of Social plugins and they all have the same issue.

I don’t know why it works that way, because when I login by username/password on http://lililove.me/wp-admin then I will be authorised like wordpress user and also as a SMWP user too.

Hi this is same with us. we have used Social Login WordPress Plugin – AccessPress Social Login Lite (https://wordpress.org/plugins/accesspress-social-login-lite/). When we are doing registration then working is fine. but only one problem that user record not same into SMWP dashboard or Member table. so please suggestion.

Thanks!

@anil, currently there is no integration with the Social Login WordPress Plugin. This is something the developers will have to investigate further your request.

Thank you

We just added a new feature for it. The latest version of the plugin has a new feature that will solve this. You can now use that feature in the advanced settings menu of the plugin to connect to social login type plugins.
