Social login as a core feature
I agree. Tried the plugin here: https://github.com/userfrosting/UserFrosting-OAuth but got 500 error immediately after installing. No way of knowing whether the plugin is still compatible, so would be amazing to have this as a core feature.
Thanks for clarifying that Alex. Is there any alternative plugin you are aware of?
We're looking into using https://github.com/thephpleague/oauth2-client to implement social login. If you want to fork the develop branch and take a crack at it, it would be a great start!
Thanks Alex. Now I know it doesn't already exist as a plugin, and is not currently in development, I will consider it.
@sagudev mentioned https://github.com/hybridauth/hybridauth over at #845. Seems to have good out-of-box coverage, and for what isn't supported, the OpenID adapter it comes with seems to simplify things a fair amount. No idea how it compares with PHP League for OpenID though.
I am waiting for hybridauth 3 stable and then i will write hybridauth 3 plugin for UserFrosting. If i will have time.
I’d be interested in seeing Hybridauth 3 implemented. I will look into how hard it would be for me to do.
hybridauth 3.0 was already released stable back in May.
Any ETA on when this might get implemented? Thanks
It's going to be a while yet... we have started work on it but there's still a lot to be done. I'm sorry I can't give you any exact timescales at the moment.
It's currently in a branch in my fork
I would be interested in using LinkedIn login in UserFrosting. Any of you have been able to do it? Thanks!
The thought was to add support for hybridauth. LinkedIn is on their list of compatible providers (https://hybridauth.github.io/providers.html), so it should work.
Unfortunately I've been inundated with other work at the moment so I haven't been able to do much with it recently, but hopefully I'll have some more free time after June.
