As of Now I can log in with both my facebook and Google accounts so those that kept getting forbidden errors hopefully that is gone for you as well. Our paid membership program had a Social plugin i turned on thinking it should work with the company that built it. BUT NOT. it got all my accounts flagged for security changes. All fixed guys I am removing that companies ability to mess us up shortly.
For years we have used the social logins Google, Facebook even LinkedIn. Well the world wants more information from me. Information they already had but for some reason I need to verify I am still me after 15 years owning some of these accounts.
The Annual Memberships have been having an issue all separate from login issues since the application page for a paid membership doesn’t include social logins. Specifically if you don’t already have a free account its not letting you create an account. So I am going to leave that option up for a bit longer while we try to fix it, but its a liability to me to do so if we don’t resolve that issue quickly.
We found some bogus date codes and that can cause issues. Last login date being 51 years ago, For those that don’t know that is DeC 31st 1969 a Linux default date so we are looking for that issue now.
FACEBOOK and GOOGLE both have all my personal information, blood samples, Biological passport and clear pictures of my rectum to verify the social logins once more.
My concern was I was not getting notified of errors. Google started giving people problems when they noticed I updated my LOGO. Facebook apparently updated TOS to put my Drivers license and Passport on file. zero errors well I personally saw the error cause i couldn’t log into my own site without using email. We want the social login because you don’t have to provide your email and with the news yelling security breech every 10 seconds by a company using 1980’s technology(oh do they forget to mention that part) still it makes people nervous.
So while troubleshooting my problems i found the social login issues by blowing up my old cookies. So don’t do that to yourself but if you have done it. Use the Email login for a week or so and we should be back on track to black helicopters circling over my compound
