Bit Bayou Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I needed something similar recently, so I thought I'd share. I feel it's not yet a complete plugin because it does not allow for Blesta account creation through Facebook graph information, but it is a working addon to allow Blesta clients to login by connecting through Facebook. This addon requires the Shared Login plugin. You will need to either create a new Facebook App or have the APP ID and APP SECRET of an existing one. You can manage your Facebook apps at https://developers.facebook.com/apps Once set up Clients will first be redirected to Facebook to authorize the app to view their email address. If the email address registered with their Facebook account is also the username of their Blesta account, the client will then be redirected back to your Blesta Portal automatically logged in to their account. Quick Instructions Download facebook-login.zip Edit facebook-login/index.php via Notepad or other text editor Upload facebook-login/ folder (does not need to be in the Blesta plugins folder) Link to facebook-login/index.php for client login Complete instructions can be found at http://docs.bitbayou.com/blesta/facebook-login flangefrog, eversmile_host, hostingboss and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Do you have any pictures mate what it looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bit Bayou Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Well it essentially has no look... Once installed, you'd add a Login with Facebook button to your website, and link it to the included facebook-login/index.php The user will then either see the Facebook authorization page or your Blesta site (either login page or client main page).

Bit Bayou Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I apologize for the double post, but would like to point out the Gist on GitHub @ https://gist.github.com/c0nfused/10970679 because it may help explain a little further as well. The file is essentially a few redirects, that's it. The code itself doesn't change the look of anything. I do hope to complete this very soon, and create a full plugin for account registration too! Will keep you updated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this still operational? I followed your steps and the buttons are still greyed out on the login page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
