Last updated: 29 Apr, 2019

Social Sites authentication allows you to integrate social login systems with KBPublisher. Configuration requires only a few simple steps.

Steps to enable Social Login

Quick summary of the process

  • End user goes to site.
  • User clicks a button, such as "Login via [Google]".
  • Popup appears with Social Site login form or, if already logged in, goes to the next step.
  • Social Site Authentication checks for valid user credentials.
  • KBPublisher authenticates the user.

Tracking logins

You can see how your remote authentication works in the KBPublisher login logs, located under Logs > Logins.

For debugging, the most recent remote login is logged to a file called last_remote_login.log in the KBPublisher cache directory (APP_CACHE_DIR in admin/config.inc.php). For example: /home/username/kb_cache/last_remote_login.log
