Facebook and Twitter SSO

[shinyidol]

I have found both the Facebook and Twitter SSO plugins, but I can't find any instructions on how to actually set them up. Are they even legit?

Yes, they are very legit. Just follow the links to the social network's developer site for instructions. For non-devs, I do think there should be an easy to follow, step-by-step guide on how to set them up.

The problem is that there aren't links that contain instructions.

I've auth for other apps using Twitter API and Facebook App IDs before, but neither of the links above even have 'go here to start'. Just npm and done.

The links should be in the plugin's pages in the ACP, that is, NodeBB's management dashboard.

oh. I have found it. Probably got stuck someplace in a restart.

Thanks!

[shinyidol]

Hmmm. Looks like neither is saving...

@shinyidol I had this issue earlier on, I rebooted my VM and the API keys were there as they should be. So either manually reboot nodebb or your server to see if it helps. If you manage to get the plugin talking with Facebook and Twitter, could you outline the steps you used. I'm currently stuck at creating the API, getting connection errors, twitters seems to point to a timestamp issue, Facebooks is a URL issue. Both outside of NodeBB though, so the plugin does what it should.
