I’ve added the Login with Google plugin and integrated the correct Google Cloud Console settings. I’ve set the allowed redirect URLs to match the login page, but the Login with Google option is not on the /my-account/ page. Please let me know how we can add this onto the account dashboard.

It is possible ? very thanks….

Sure! Here’s how Reddit’s auto-login works: 1. Initial Login

When a user logs into Reddit by entering their credentials, Reddit’s servers verify the information. If the credentials are correct, Reddit generates a unique session token associated with the user. 2. Authentication Token

This session token acts as an identifier that Reddit uses to recognize the user. Reddit creates this token and sends it to the user’s browser as a cookie or a JSON Web Token (JWT). The token is stored on Reddit’s servers and also saved in the user’s browser. 3. Session Cookie

Reddit uses a cookie (often named reddit_session or similar) to store the session token. This cookie is set to expire after a relatively long period (weeks or months, for example), allowing the user to stay logged in without having to re-enter their credentials frequently. 4. Automatic Login

Each time the user visits Reddit, their browser sends the session cookie back to Reddit’s servers. The server checks the token:

• If it’s valid and not expired, Reddit recognizes the user and logs them in automatically.
• If the token is expired or deleted (for instance, if the user cleared their cookies), Reddit will prompt the user to log in again.

5. Token Refresh

In some cases, Reddit may refresh the session token (e.g., by generating a new one) to extend the session without the user needing to re-login. This refresh process happens in the background and is seamless to the user. Security Measures

• Reddit secures cookies and tokens with encryption and security flags, such as HttpOnly (which blocks JavaScript access) and Secure (which ensures cookies are only sent over HTTPS).
• Reddit also offers two-factor authentication (2FA) as an additional security layer. If enabled, Reddit will require a second factor (like a code sent to the user’s phone) along with the password, especially on new devices or if suspicious activity is detected.

Ending Auto-Login

If a user logs out manually or deletes their cookies, Reddit will invalidate the session token, and auto-login will stop until they re-enter their credentials.

This system makes logging in seamless while also ensuring good security for the account.

Awesome plugin. Best Google connect I’ve used as I am having a nightmare with others. However, I need to also grab the Google profile image to use as the profile image for WP. Anyway to do that with this plugin?

Can we also have user Display Picture with google login ?

Suddenly I am not able to login with google. Error I am getting is “Could not retrieve the access token, please try again.” And below errors are coming in console
403 error for GEThttps://accounts.google.com/gsi/status?client_id=XXXX&as=WXLPnwhQ9l7SVBimta1lKg
[GSI_LOGGER]: The given origin is not allowed for the given client ID.

i installed plugin and completed all api integration but in my account page login with google is not visible and also if unregistered user goes to my account page it is showing last logged in user name

Hi Plugin Developer,

Can I request to provide some guidelines to setup this plugin in multisite?

How do I set this plugin for each individual site in a multisite network?

I have followed the steps, but I still cannot see the Google login option on the main domain login page after adding the keys to the dashboard.

Is its working with multisite please confirm.

https://prnt.sc/lPdY32xvQ3hz

Many Thanks!

All of the steps were basic and easy.
I checked everything, and even waited a full day.
Unfortunately, when trying to login it says “Registration not allowed”.

Thank you.

Great App!! I have seen a few alternatives come and go over the years but this one is my go to one. I have two suggestions though (not urgent) that might make it a bit more complete without making it more complex:

• Populate the wordpress user last login date (upon a succesful) login. I am sure there are many folks out there that use the ‘Last login column’ in the wordpress users admin panel to see what users never login (and can be removed) or who was the last one in there in the case of admins.
• Ability to completely remove the default wordpress user and password login entry fields. It doesnt matter how often I tell users to use their google credentials there are always some that try to login using the default wordpress fields. This i think should have an option in the plugins settings as there maybe sites that use both google oauth an standard wordpress users.

Anyway, even if these suggestions never see the light of day I still think its the best plugin for this out there!

Best, Ronald

I apologize as I’m not an expert, can anyone help me? where can I put this $auth_url = plugin()->container()->get( ‘gh_client’ )->authorization_url(); I use peepso and would like to add the button! I think the plugin is working well ?? thanks!!

We noticed a bug where when we try to login with our gmail with the One tap login (the popup window that appears at the top right corner for the first time visit), after logging in with google, it redirects you back to the wp login page with error:

‘The username field is empty’
‘The password field is empty’

then when you try to login again with google, then it will work.

Can you look into this issue?

Thanks!

I’ve been able to get the login-with-google plugin working on my mutli-site WordPress installation by entering the client_id and secret in the Settings UI for each of the wordpress sites in my multi-site deployment. This was needed because I was unable to get the wp-config.php configuration settings to work.

I added this to my wp-config.php

/* https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/login-with-google/#description */
define('WP_GOOGLE_LOGIN_CLIENT_ID', '7935-REDACTED-nbfu.apps.googleusercontent.com');
define('WP_GOOGLE_LOGIN_SECRET', 'Tk-REDACTED-nh');
define('WP_GOOGLE_LOGIN_USER_REGISTRATION', 'false');

And I can confirm that the plugin is able to see these values because when I login using username/password and go to the login-with-google Settings UI, these 3 fields are greyed out and can’t be set, and the values that I’ve put in my wp-config.php are present in the fields in the Settings UI.

The problem is that the plugin doesn’t seem to use these values if they’re configured in wp-config.php, only if they’re configured in the Settings UI.

I’ve tested configuring the client_id in wp-config.php and found that the “Log in with Google” button on the login page, which is a link to start the OAuth flow, has an empty client_id value. This obviously causes the OAuth login to fail.

I’ve also tested by setting the client_id in the plugin Settings UI and the secret in wp-config.php. In this case, the “Log in with Google” button is correct and has the client_id but the OAuth flow fails because the plugin isn’t aware of the secret.

I’ve read through the code and am assuming that this relates to the utils/GoogleClient.php and the __construct method in the GoogleClient class. This sets the $this->client_id value using the $config array that’s passed in.

The array that’s passed in when the object is instantiated is in src/Container.php in the define_services method of the Container class. I’m not familiar with the details here but I have to assumed that it’s only reading from the values set in the UI settings and ignoring anything set in wp-config.php

This should be reproducible on your side, just set the client_id and secret in wp-config.php and see if you can login.

If indeed you’re not able to reproduce this, let me know and I can share more details about my setup.

Hello! I got a Googe OAuth app, I entered client ID and secret, I added Authorized redirect URIs, what now?

Hello. I installed the version Login with Google 1.3.1 for the very first time on WP 6.1.3 and I am getting the following error on any page of my site:

I’d like to enable automatic user registration by using the Create New User checkbox on, and need to set new users to be administrator, without changing the default setting of WordPress. How is that possible?

Hello, ive been using the plugin, and i was wondering, if there is a way to redirest the user to a custom url, only if he registered (not if he previously had an account)

Thank you in advance

ive seen the shortcode addition

1.1

• Feature: Add shortcode [google_login] with optional attributes: [google_login button_text="Login with Google" force_display="no" redirect_to="https://example.url/page"]

but i was wondering, what link should we use (if possible, otherwise a php function) to redirect the user in the source page. For example, if he tries to login/signup while in checkout, redirect him to checkout after signup/login.

Thank you in advance

Hello, and thanks for creating this plugin! I recently received this notice from Google and wanted to know if it’s going to impact my users’ ability to log in. Thanks!

Hello Google Developer,

We’re writing to let you know that we detected the use of an embedded webview in requests to Google’s OAuth 2.0 authorization endpoint in the past 120 days associated with one or more of your OAuth client IDs listed in this email.

Any affected authorization endpoint requests will be blocked with a disallowed_useragent error starting July 24, 2023. Affected requests to our authorization endpoint will display a user-facing warning message starting in May until July 24, 2023.

What do you need to know?

Embedded webview libraries are highly customizable, which can expose Google’s login and account authorization pages to potential “man-in-the-middle” attacks. Google’s OAuth 2.0 “Use secure browsers” policy helps us protect users from these and other types of attacks.

Examples of affected embedded webview libraries include android.webkit.WebView on Android and WKWebView on iOS or macOS.

What do you need to do?

• Review our June 2021 Google Developers blog post, Security changes to Google’s OAuth 2.0 authorization endpoint in embedded webviews, to determine potential next steps.
• Consider how enterprise and educational users might be impacted by embedded webviews in your app(s).
• If you are able to modify the authorization requests of your app, you can choose to test your application for compatibility with our “Use secure browsers” policy after making the necessary changes.

Note: Suppression of the user-facing warning message is not supported.

How can I get the access and refresh tokens to save as user Meta? I’ve been using chatgpt to help me try and figure it out but I can’t find where your plugin is storing the access and refresh tokens for custom scopes.

I did already manage to create a custom plugin that hooks in with your plugin to ask for the scope permissions when the user logs in, but I need to be able to use the tokens in another script.

The plugin generates the following PHP warnings:

PHP Deprecated:  Return type of Pimple\Container::offsetExists($id) should either be compatible with ArrayAccess::offsetExists(mixed $offset): bool, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in /wp-content/plugins/login-with-google/vendor/pimple/pimple/src/Pimple/Container.php on line 133

PHP Deprecated:  Return type of Pimple\Container::offsetGet($id) should either be compatible with ArrayAccess::offsetGet(mixed $offset): mixed, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in /wp-content/plugins/login-with-google/vendor/pimple/pimple/src/Pimple/Container.php on line 98

PHP Deprecated:  Return type of Pimple\Container::offsetSet($id, $value) should either be compatible with ArrayAccess::offsetSet(mixed $offset, mixed $value): void, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in /wp-content/plugins/login-with-google/vendor/pimple/pimple/src/Pimple/Container.php on line 79

PHP Deprecated:  Return type of Pimple\Container::offsetUnset($id) should either be compatible with ArrayAccess::offsetUnset(mixed $offset): void, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in /wp-content/plugins/login-with-google/vendor/pimple/pimple/src/Pimple/Container.php on line 143

Hi, does this plugin support the latest version of Google Sign-In which has been changed to “Google Identity Services”?

I have another plugin that is able to do this, but i find this plugin well better maintained.

I would like to add google user image to the wordpress avatar automatically, I have another plugin to use this with, but its an extension of their current plugin.

How can we make this together?

Hi there!

Good plugin, i like its simple, I migrated away from other plugins for that reason. I miss one key feature though the ability to automatically redirect to Google from the login page. It can be very confusing for people to see both login fields (user / password) and a login with google box. In our case everybody logs in with google so it would be great if there was a setting so you could jump directly to the google account chooser page. No fields, no buttons.

Other small suggestion is to grey out the domain white list field in settings when registration is disabled. Maybe put the domain white list field right underneath the new registration check box.

Thanks, keep up the great work!

Ronald

We see the following error when trying to login via google with chrome:

Could not retrieve the access token, please try again.

Getting this error when i click on login with google button. Where do i set the redirect uri in the plugin config?
redirect_uri_mismatch

We are using a shortcode on another page. We don’t need it to appear on the /wp-admin page. I’ve tried using CSS with display none on the element but that did not work.

Hello – I’m trying to use this plugin but both options in the instructions aren’t available to me:

“Input these values either in WP Admin > Settings > WP Google Login, or in wp-config.php using the following code snippet…”

WP Google Login is activated but not showing up in Settings, and I’m also using a child theme that doesn’t contain wp-config.php.

Any ideas on what to do?

Is it possible with this plugin to allow all members of a specified Google Group to log into the WordPress site? If not, this would be a very useful feature in a volunteer project I manage. We’re using Google Groups as the source of truth to onboard people to the project management systems, but we have to set them up with user accounts in a WordPress site separately. Would be great to eliminate this WordPress account creation step.

Hello! Installed the plugin, and configured it. Everything is exactly as you have in the description. But registration does not happen. Writes “Cannot register with this email:” and the user’s email. Please help me solve the problem.

Can we check an email address before an account is created, for example if email address is this, this and this, create an account, otherwise show an error message. Thanks
