Creating applications for authorization through social networks in joomla

Attention! Many social networks are domain www and without www, as different domains, so we recommend to decide on this matter in advance and set the preferred domain, as well as set up redirects to avoid further problems.

All settings of social networks are carried out through plug-ins. Settings can be found, Manager of extensions => Manager of plug-ins => group of plug-ins "slogin_auth".
