BuddyPress

Hi,

is there a solid solution for buddypress to let users register and login with the facebook or twitter credentials while having a local username that is added on first login/registration via one of these services?

Thanks for helping!
Frank

This sort of thing doesn’t need to be BuddyPress specific; find a WordPress plugin that does it, and it should work.

I didn’t find one so far. Thought somebody here should now it as it should be somewhat often used in communities… that’s at least what i thought

Sidenote: any chance to get a notification when someone answers my forum posts here?

Facebook book login integration can be done with the WP-FB-Autoconnect plugin. I have tried it myself and it is a solid plugin, however FB avatar support is a tad wonky.

Really will depend on what your needs are. I am actually looking for answers to mapping profile fields between FB and BuddyPress so that I can roll my own integration.

@Helmi as Paul said, any plugins for wordpress will (should) work. and their IS alot of them (about 177 plugins come up with a search – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=facebook+connect & http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=twitter+login)

Their is also a premium facebook connect plugin designed for Buddypress – http://buddydev.com/plugins/buddypress-facebook-connect-plus/

hello everyone,
i just installed Buddypress, it is up and running only for a minor hiccup. if i click on the “log in” link at the upper part of my screen, i receive page not found. but if i fill out the login form on the right side of the page, i get logged in. can anyone help out with this problem. i expect the “log in” link to display the login form, instead of the ‘page not found’ message it is displaying
