Paradox Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Currently looking at a means of allowing people to login to the site using their Facebook/Twitter/Google+ credentials. I think the same functionality would also allow users to post comments on here, with an option to automatically share to Facebook, etc. This would hopefully create greater exposure of the posts, and hopefully greater interaction as a result.It takes a bit of work thought, so wanted to get a idea of people's thoughts on this.I can do a poll later perhaps, but for now, a 'Yes' or 'No' if you are interested in this will do.

Vinnie Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 It'll maybe attract new users and hopefully they may post.But Im happy logging in the way I do. As long as thats not affected and as long as I dont have to link to my FB page or others, then Im easy-osie either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabino Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 I refuse FB, Twitter and even G+.But, as long as I can still log in as now, and it brings more traffic; great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExxyJj Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Don't think it'll have any impact on folks who are already members, unless they desire to have the nonsense they post shared on Facebook I don't personally use my social media accounts to log in to other websites, but if it generates more traffic then fire in!

Deutsch Par Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 From what I understand you have the option to log in either traditionally or using your social media details (if you have them) and it's your choice whether or not to link your post to social media.

SanguinePar Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Good idea, although I'd probably just keep my usual login. Using those online identities though is a great way to get people to join as it's virtually frictionless, rather than having to enter a whole bunch of info.

Vinnie Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 Now that this has been added, it seems to log you out of the site more frequently? Is this to be expected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
