Social Connect functionality don't work

ricardodepaula · November 2010

Hi, I activated the plugins and put the IDs keys, but I can´t login via social network - Twitter and Facebook, in Facebook login, he show the errors: "Provider is required" "Unique ID is required" "the connect data has nor beem verified".

Heya - you need to configure the providers in your vanilla dashboard.

Try following this howto: http://vanillaforums.com/blog/help-tutorials/how-to-add-facebook-twitter-google-and-openid-to-your-community/

It's not as simple as just enabling the plugins.

ricardodepaula did you find the solution ?
I think I have the same problem.

@Carlo_13 Did you follow the guide that jbhewitt linked to?

Carlo_13 · November 2010

Yes, I have even deleted all plugins and re installed them, none of them are working.

It is really weird, I followed the guide step by step.

I am sorry to bother you guys, but I really want to use the facebook and twitter for my forum.

Thanks Lincoln for you help.

Seems this is an issues?
I have a completely fresh install (done today) and I cannot use any other method of logging in, simply doesn't work :(

any fix released yet?

Carlo_13 · November 2010

Hello,

Just wanted to ask if somebody could send me his PHP file for the facebook plug in.

Maybe the error comes from this file in the plug in ? Because I think my facebook app is fine.

I'll try to replace it, and see what happens....

Thanks

Hi - I keep getting "Bonk" error with all social connectors

I've successfully approved with both facebook and twitter but the "bonk" errors continue whenever I try and sign in with the connectors ?

Awesome feature - but doesn't work :(

andy231 · November 2010

ps - the error i am getting is

The error occurred on or near: /nfs/c03/h01/mnt/47345/domains/**domain.com**/html/library/vendors/Smarty-2.6.25/libs/Smarty.class.php

Smarty error: the $compile_dir '/nfs/c03/h01/mnt/47345/domains/**domain.com**/html/cache/Smarty/compile' does not exist, or is not a directory.

creating this directory --- /cache/Smarty/compile ---

This SOLVES the problem - think this is a bug ?

Carlo_13 · November 2010

Hello ricardodepaula,

I went to your forum and I see your facebook login works ?

How did you do that ?

Thanks

ricardodepaula · November 2010

@Carlo_13 i just replaced the php file http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/131863/#Comment_131863

@andy231, creating that /cache/Smarty/compile folder does indeed fix a bug in the code, but is unrelated to the Facebook/Twitter plugin problems.

ricardodepaula linked to the correct fix for the social connect problems. Sorry about this guys. The fixes are in our unstable branch of Vanilla, but I wanted to get the fixes up to you asap.

Here are the links to the files. You'll see that you can unzip them and replace them into their appropriate plugin folders.

Does anybody still have these files?

Alibaba31337 · February 2011

They are not available for download :(

Todd · February 2011

Ah. This problem should have been resolved in the current version of the software.

chuckD · February 2011

Anyone have the latest files? I would like to try the download as well since we're still having problems. See post below.

I am trying to set up twitter login, have entered the 2 required codes and activated, but user gets error message in popup : "Failed to validate oauth signature and token".

(free) forum at http://grouponclones.vanillaforums.com/

any clues?

clonediscussion · May 2011

Similar with facebook, went thru registration process and entered the requested App ID and App Secret codes, ensured they were saved and the function activated, but user gets error message in popup:

{
"error": {
"type": "OAuthException",
"message": "Invalid redirect_uri: Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration."
}
}

Howdy, Stranger!
