Mobile devices login Fix

  • Hello,
    I found a issue when login from mobile devices, and I applied a quick fix to it, so I am posting it here. I am running WordPress 3.9.2 and WordPress Social Login 2.2.3

    When trying to login from a mobile device, a new tab (pop up) was openning with one of the url parameters called “undefinedprovider”, and a 404 error was shown. On the back, the site loaded correctly the login of the social network.
    So, what I did, in “widget.js”, just after the line popupurl = $( '#wsl_popup_base_url' ).val(); I added an “if” checking if there is actually any value in “popupurl. So the code would be the following:

    popupurl = $( '#wsl_popup_base_url' ).val();
if (popupurl) {
	provider = $(this).attr("data-provider");
	var width  = 1000;
	var height = 600;
	var top    = ( screen.height / 2 ) - ( height / 2 ) - 50;
	var left   = ( screen.width  / 2 ) - ( width  / 2 );

	window.open( popupurl + 'provider=' + provider, 'hybridauth_social_sing_on', 'location=1,status=0,scrollbars=0,height=' + height + ',width=' + width + ',top=' + top + ',left=' + left);
}

    That avoids the unnecesary pop up in mobile.

    That’s all!
    P.D: Anyone detected the same problem? Seems strange it is happening only to me…

  • Hi,

    I also have problems with mobile login. It just doesn’t work. When I click one of the social login icons, the page reloads, nothing happens… Seems another problem.

    Problem solved: changed the Authentication Display setting to “In page” instead of “Popup”.

    The “in page” logic is what the plugin defaults to in mobile devices even if you configure it as “popup”. I think this is good, because opening a new tab in mobile devices is a bit painful. For desktop scenarios though, I prefer the “popup” behavior.
    My problem was that the defaulting to “in page” logic for mobile devices it wasn’t working ok, thus the fix that I posted ??

    Thanks @juanbp, You saved my day. I had same problem. Thanks for this helpful post.

    Thank you very much. Waiting to see this in the plugin default setting.

    Is plugin author looks for this plugin, any more ?

    Hello,

    Thank you JuanBP for the fix, I confirm it is working and does not use pop up page for mobile devices.

    Regards
