Nextend for Existing Users

Hi @engrrajonahmed!

You could use a shortcode like this:
[nextend_social_login login="0" link="1" unlink="1"]
to display social login buttons for these users. It will allow them to “link” or “unlink” their accounts from your social providers. Here:
https://nextendweb.com/nextend-social-login-docs/theme-developer/#shortcode
you can read more about the parameters you can use with this shortcode.

Hello Team NSLR,
Is it possible to link existing users with social media providers through your plugin’s REST API?

Thank you,
Gábor Bitter

Hi @b992

No. The REST API:
https://nextendweb.com/nextend-social-login-docs/nextend-social-login-rest-api/
can only be used to check whether there is a user in your site that has already registered with the currently used social account or not.

The actual registration process can only be done by your own custom codes, and we’re not able to provide support for any kind of custom coding.

The only way existing users can link their own profile with Nextend Social Login is to use the link="1" and unlink="1" parameters in the shorcode, as Gabor wrote above.
