Login with social networks

Popular p

Introduction

Frontend Access Control, Facebook integration, Auto Login, Google Profiles, Site Access

Enable users to create their account quickly and easily without having to set a username and a password, just with their Facebook or Google account. Once a user has created an account, he can log into your website with a single click.

For Facebook, developers who have implemented Facebook Login in their apps have seen dramatic increases in the number of people logging into their apps, higher levels of engagement, and continuing increases in the number of people using Facebook Login.

Ease of use

Very easy and simple to setup and use.

Support

It's free! You shouldn't expect support when you are GIVEN such an effective plugin.

Documentation

Just follow the 9m video on the developers website. What else is needed?

I used this to: Logging and registering users with their FB and Google account. What else? :) Just one little snag: if you have user custom fields DON'T place the buttons ABOVE the form fields (setting in manage plugins "User Social Networks"). The values users type get saved but not displayed.

Setting up APIs is not documented, this can make some issues in initiating the module.

I used this to: Login and registration with facebook and/or google profile at my site.

Functionality

Does what I needed - provide ability for users to register and login using FB or Google accounts

Ease of use

The extension is simple to use, the issue is that setting up FB app is not obvious, and extension help could be a bit better.

Support

Developer responded quickly to a question although I was not expecting her to as it is free and she has a proper job as well.

Documentation

Almost doesn't need documentation, but if you are not familiar with FB (I hate it and don't use it) then setting up the FB end is not easy.

I used this to: Allowing users to register and login with their Facebook or Google IDs if they have them. Need to warn them that if they do they will also be logged in to FB/Google and logging out of the Joomla site will not log them out of FB/Google - might be an issue for some privacy users
