WP Requests Email Address on Redirect

  • Hi,

    Not sure if this is a bug or intended behavior. After authorizing Twitter, I am redirected to the login page of my site with the instructions to enter my email address and a password will be sent to me. This seems wrong as connecting via Facebook is fully automated. Is this the intended behavior or do I possibly have my Twitter app misconfigured?

    TIA and thanks for the great plugin!

    As far as I can tell this is actually a shortcoming (or feature) of the Twitter API. They don’t reveal the email address associated with the account since, in their words, there is no guarantee that the entity behind the account is actually a person with an address (or something to that effect).

    HTH,

    Hi,

    1/ Any news about this?
    I have installed the plugin today and I am still “redirected to the login page of my site with the instructions to enter my email address and a password will be sent to me”.

    On Apps Twitter –> Application Settings & Access Token = Access Level set to Read, write, and direct messages
    In additional permissions –> Request email addresses from users : checked.

    Any way to avoid the “enter your email” step?

    2/ An other point.
    The image profile generates mixed content. I have “WordPress Force HTTPS” installed. Everything fine with Nextend Google & FB Connect.

    Many thanks

    Did you find the solution because I’ve also the same problem. When I authorize as user then it’s redirecting me again on siteurl/wp-login.php?loginTwitter=1 and asking email address.
