What it does
Long signup forms and yet another password to remember are common reasons people leave a registration page. This add-on gives visitors a shorter route: they pick a social account, approve the connection, and the plugin pulls their details from that profile to set up the account. Because the user data is imported automatically, new members can be created without typing in the usual fields, and returning users can log in the same way.
The plugin works alongside the User Registration plugin, so you build your registration and login forms there and add social buttons to them. You decide which platforms appear, choose one of four icon designs for the buttons, and control whether first-time social users are registered automatically or added only when you allow it. It suits any WordPress site where visitors create accounts, such as community sites, sites with gated content or sites that rely on user profiles.
Best for
- Community sites that want quicker account signups
- Sites using the User Registration plugin for forms
- Sites with gated content that require user logins
Features
Four social login options
Visitors can sign up and log in with their Facebook, Twitter, Google or LinkedIn accounts, which removes the need for a separate username and password.
Automatic profile data import
User details are pulled from the connected social profile, so fewer fields need to be filled in when an account is created.
Auto-registration for new users
First-time visitors who log in with a social account can be registered automatically, creating their account in a single step.
Auto-registration on or off
A setting lets you turn auto-registration on or off, so you decide whether social users are added as new users right away.
Choose your platforms
Pick which social networks appear as login options on your site, so the buttons match the accounts your audience actually uses.
Four icon designs
Style the social login buttons with one of four icon templates to fit the look of your site and its branding.
Works with User Registration forms
Social buttons combine with forms built in the User Registration plugin, giving you customizable registration and login forms with social sign-in included.
