Support Forum
I've just set up a new site, I've installed Simple Press which is working nicely and I've also installed the plugin wp social login so that visitors to the site can easily log in to post comments etc with their twitter/facebook/tumblr account. This plugin works fine for general site login and also for posting comments on the site however when trying to log in via the forums there seems to be some kind of redirect problem which results in the user being given a blank page.
You can test this via using one of the twitter/fb/tumblr login buttons you see on our forum page here http://slingerstv.com/forums
what plugin is that??? and why not just use the third party login stuff (janrain/rpx) that comes built into SP?

it's called wordpress social login http://wordpress.org/extend/pl.....cial-login
I would prefer this over the one built into SP because this one allows people to easily comment on WP posts in addition to just via the login or forums. it gives you the buttons you need right on the post comments page. Basically, I just want to make it as easy as possible for people to participate on all areas of the site rather than just the forums.
Eg. you can see here it's got the nice simple "connect with" buttons right on the comment section http://slingerstv.com/slingers.....omic-tease
ETA: Janrain also doesn't use Tumblr and SO many people are using that these days I'd like to have that option
are these the same: https://simple-press.com/suppo.....al-logins/
or at least work the same?
did you disable the forum inline plugin then?

The one you linked to doesn't seem to support tumblr either. As for whether or not they work the same I can't say because my level of knowledge doesn't allow me to understand everything about how plugins work, if I did I'd probably just write my own plugins
As for "disable the forum inline plugin" I'm not quite sure what you're referring to, I can't find anything in the forum settings that resembles that.
Some further info that may help. The actual authorsation works fine, when the user is supposed to be redirected back to the site however is where things get stuck, the URL is http://slingerstv.com/wp-conte.....vider=true
which shows up as a blank page, but the source of that page is as follows.
No idea if that might help explain anything to you or not...
<html> <head> <script> function init() { window.opener.wsl_wordpress_social_login({ 'action' : 'wordpress_social_login', 'provider' : 'Twitter' }); window.close(); } </script> </problem-with-post-edit-buttonead> <body onload="init();"> </body> </problem-with-post-edit-buttontml>
All that script is doing - as far as I am aware - is running a function from within the plugin called wsl_wordpress_social_login against the source page and then closing the window. Actually looks a bit odd to me with that window.close on the end. I believe the actual redirect is supposed to happen after this as a result of that function call. Unless I am misunderstanding of course.
So you probably need to find out what that function is supposed to do and what is supposed to happen next.

do you have an forum login redirects active? could be block admin or forum - components - login and registration... maybe redirects are conflicting...

that is what I suggested you try in post #4... in your sp theme, the spHead.php template file, just remove the inline login form... you could replace it with a simple link if you wanted...
