Comment sign-in update

  • blog

Status Report 09.02.11 1911: Lots of you have reported continual problems with the WordPress Social login plugin, so I’ve decided to try deactivating it and enabling the Jetpack comment sign-in, instead. If I did it right, you should be able to sign in for commenting with a WordPress account, Twitter account, or Facebook Account. I hope this helps improve your commenting experience.

2040: Well, turns out that there are some settings here that don’t play nice with each other, and lots of you are still having trouble. I’m getting too old for this shit, so I’ve gone back to the WP-Social setup that was working for 90% of you, instead of the new way that seemed to be failing for 95% of you.

    Hey, wow, it didn’t even ask me to sign in. Success?

      The NSA logged in for you. Just one of the many “services” they provide.

    You’re so good to fix this for us on a holiday.

    On a side note, how’s your wrist?

    It worked with my google account! I was one of the ones who had problems with the WP auth not letting me use reasonable passwords before, so as long as I can sign in, I don’t care! 😀

    This setup appears to work signing in via twitter.

    Cool! Thanks for working on this, but do go easy on your wrist until it’s healed.

I get a ton of junk email, like we all do. I have aggressive filtering, like most of us do. But something gets through every day, because reasons.

I asked Spotify to play me some rock. It's horrifying how well you know me, I said, but do what you do so well. I may as well make the most of this Faustian bargain.

The thing is, I was totally going to write today.
