Adding Google Login

  • Log in with your Google credentials if you are not logged in.
  • If you don’t have a project yet, you’ll need to create one. You can do this by clicking on the blue “Create Project” text on the right side! ( If you already have a project, then in the top bar click on the name of your project instead, which will bring up a modal and click “New Project“. )
  • Name your project and then click on the “Create” button again!
  • Once you have a project, you’ll end up in the dashboard. ( If earlier you have already had a Project, then make sure you select the created project in the top bar! )
  • Click the “OAuth consent screen” button on the left hand side.
  • Choose a User Type according to your needs and press “Create“. If you want to enable the social login with Google for any users with a Google account, then pick the “External” option! Note: We don’t use sensitive or restricted scopes either. But if you will use this App for other purposes too, then you may need to go through an Independent security review!
  • Enter a name for your App to the “App name” field, which will appear as the name of the app asking for consent.
  • For the “User support email” field, select an email address that users can use to contact you with questions about their consent.
  • Under the “Authorized domains” section press the “Add Domain” button and enter your domain name, probably: localhost without subdomains!
  • At the “Developer contact information” section, enter an email address that Google can use to notify you about any changes to your project.
  • Press “Save and Continue” then press it again on the “Scopes“, “Test users” pages, too!
  • On the left side, click on the “Credentials” menu point, then click the “+ Create Credentials” button in the top bar.
  • Choose the “OAuth client ID” option.
  • Select the “Web application” under Application type.
  • Enter a “Name” for your OAuth client ID.
  • Under the “Authorised redirect URIs” section click “Add URI” and add the following URL: https://yourdomain/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=st_googleplus
  • Click on the “Create” button
  • A modal should pop up with your credentials. If that doesn’t happen, go to the Credentials in the left hand menu and select your app by clicking on its name and you’ll be able to copy-paste the “Client ID” and “Client Secret” from there.
  • Currently your App is in Testing mode, so only limited number of people can use it. To allow this App for any user with a Google Account, click on the “OAuth consent screen” option on the left side, then click the “PUBLISH APP” button under the “Publishing status” section, and press the “Confirm” button.
  • Finally, copy and paste your Client ID and Client Secret on Theme Settings > Theme Options> Social Option
