About WooCommerce Social Login WordPress plugin 2.5.3
WooCommerce Social Login adds social account sign-in to a WooCommerce store, so a customer can register or log in with an existing social profile instead of choosing a new password. Fewer forms at checkout and on the My Account page usually means fewer abandoned sign-ups.
The listing doesn't state which providers are supported or how they are set up. Social login normally needs a developer app and keys created at each provider, such as Facebook or Google, and entered in the plugin settings. Check the documentation in the package for the provider list and steps.
The version on file is 2.5.3, released April 21, 2018. Social network login APIs change often, so test every provider on a staging site before relying on it.

- 2

Setup: using WooCommerce Social Login WordPress plugin 2.5.3
- Activate the plugin on staging. Make sure WooCommerce is active, then activate the plugin.
- Open the settings. Find the social login options in the WooCommerce settings or admin menu.
- Create an app at each provider. Register an app and copy its ID and secret into the plugin.
- Enter the redirect address. Copy the callback URL the plugin shows into the provider's allowed redirect list.
- Test log in and registration. Use a new account on the login page, My Account page and checkout.
Common problems and fixes
The provider shows a redirect URI mismatch or invalid app error
- Why it happens
- The callback address in the provider's app settings differs from the one the plugin uses, including http versus https.
- How to fix it
- Copy the exact callback URL from the plugin into the provider's app settings and make sure your site uses https.
Login works on staging but not on the live site
- Why it happens
- The provider app is limited to the staging domain or is still in development mode.
- How to fix it
- Add the live domain to the app's settings and switch the app to live mode.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.
“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”
- Why it happens
- The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.
“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”
- Why it happens
- Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
- How to fix it
- Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.
Licence or “updates unavailable” notices
- Why it happens
- The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
- How to fix it
- Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
