[geeklog-devel] login using linked in does not file a email adres

[Tom]

Geeklog does allow plugins to interact when a user is created but obviously you would need some to code for this

 

http://www.geeklog.net/filemgmt/index.php/541 (see coments for extra variable needed)

 

Here is a custom registration example. The thing is though you are probably right about remote user account creation bypassing these hooks, I would have to double check to be sure. (so this may not be much help)

 

I did have a plan for user registrations but I have been dealing with other things lately and it is on the back burner for now. I wanted to update the way plugins interacted with the User Page and the My Accounts Page, and get a custom user creation plugin going, but adding a hook for remote users would be a great idea as well so you could gather other information for remote accounts right away.

 

Why don’t you put a feature request into the Geeklog Bug Tracker.

It is difficult to insert a step. GL creates a account silently for remote users, and this creation should return the privacy setting page. 

First, I don't know where in the code this happens, and second, it should occur only once on creation.

Of course I can send ppl to their profile page every time, but that is nasty.

Hi Wim,

 

I know this is probably not the solution you are going for, but would it be possible to add an intermediate step?
When the visitor is logging in using linkedin or twitter you could ask them for their email before redirecting to the log in page?

 

best,

ben

Hi Wim,

 

I did a quick check and as far as I can see both LinkedIn and Twitter do not allow us to retrieve the email password of a user account through OAUTH (Facebook does though). This was a privacy issue decided by them. Hopefully this will change in the future.

 

Do you know how people are emailing these users causing these errors (what page) as if the email is blank this ability should be disabled?

After login using LinkedIn, a user is created in remote_users without using the submission queue.

This user does not have a email adres at all.

When somebody tries to email him/her, I get the error email.

 

I need to have the email address in the database. So, logging in using LinkedIn should copy the email address.

At first login, LinkedIn even acknowledges that the email address is handed over.

 

Attached a screen shot.

I can't remember if LinkedIn user permissions allow the emails to be passed
to Geeklog or not. If they are not a blank should be stored in the db. What
do the email addresses look like?

Re: http://project.geeklog.net/tracking/view.php?id=1659

I get more and more users without a email address, due to the linkedIn
remote login.
What can I do, to correct the problem?
Or help me by pointing to the module where this bug is located?

Thanks,
wim niemans ri
