HybridAuth for Backdrop

HybridAuth Social Login bundles the HybridAuth library (v3.7.1) and allows your Backdrop site users to login and register using:

• Facebook
• Twitter
• LinkedIn
• Google
• Yahoo
• Windows Live
• Foursquare
• AOL
• OpenID
• Github, LastFM, PayPal, Vimeo, Disqus, Instagram, Tumblr, Vkontakte, Mail.ru, Yandex, Odnoklassniki, Twitch.tv, Steam and more.

Advantages

• Doesn't depend on any external service
• Doesn't load any external CSS or JS files - blazingly fast widget rendering
• Relies on third-party open source PHP library HybridAuth (provides communication with authentication providers; no need to support them in the module code) developed and supported on GitHub by broad community of contributors

Installation

• Install this module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions

Usage

After installation please go through the configuration settings and grant your users permission to use HybridAuth:

• anonymous users - to login using HybridAuth widget
• authenticated users - to add more HybridAuth identities to the account

HybridAuth library requires php-curl extension.

If you need additional providers support like Mail.ru - then you need to copy needed additional providers to the library and clear Backdrop caches. For instance, to get Mail.ru provider working you need to copy additional-providers/hybridauth-mailru/Providers/Mailru.php to hybridauth/Hybrid/Providers/Mailru.php, clear caches, and you are good to go. After that you just need to configure your application ID, private and secret keys at module configuration pages. See issue 3 for potential changes to this.

Recommended additions:

Other potential modules:

• Rules - to map HybridAuth data to user profile fields and other great stuff. See the wiki for an example.
• Real name - as it caches display names and improves performance of your site.

Issues

If you have an issue with any provider not working - please check provider documentation - just click on the provider name and read the instructions related to registering your application at the provider's site and configuring this application settings.
