Facebook, Twitter and Microsoft Livre login on IPS4

Featured Replies

Posted

I want to upgrade from 3.4.8 to 4.0, but my board accepts login using Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft Live because of some 3rd party plugins.

I know that IPS4 wont import any 3rd plarty plugins... So what will happen to users that use those tools to login? They won't be able to login anymore?

The login handlers built in to IPS4 are:

Standard
External Database
IPS Connect
Microsoft
LDAP
Facebook
Twitter
Google
LinkedIn

So you would need to enable the ones you want to use.

Thank you!!

im not really sure but clearly if he enable the login handlers after the upgrade and if other people login with facebook or steam .....etc again it will create a new user at forum because there is already a registered email address they used to login before.

they will probably need to login at his website using the same user name and password they have, and if they dont know their passwords they can simply recover it through their facebook, steam....etc email address :)

I just don't want people to lose their accounts. Even if some of them need to recover their password, I don't think it will be a huge problem.

I think maybe a third of all members use Facebook to login, so I really want to be sure that they will be able to keep loging in after the upgrade.

no worries you wont lose any accounts i also had facebook and steam logins before i upgraded
