We have a system whose frontend login is handled by auth0. When a user creates an account using our auth0 popup, a joomla user is created and an ES user also.

This works great. We redirect social users to their profile edit page where they accept terms and conditions, and we're done.

The problem is however, we need for socially registered and created users to be able to select their own profile type.

I've read elsewhere that ES developers have been asking for subscription integration with ES that would allow users to move from one profile type to another. That would also solve our problem as we could have a simple default profile type and then have users move on to select the appropriate one for them

So my question is, how can we reveal the "Select a Profile Type" function to socially registered users. Manually registered users already see it.

We would be VERY interested i knowing your progress with subscription integration and ES
Hey Bernard,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

I've read elsewhere that ES developers have been asking for subscription integration with ES that would allow users to move from one profile type to another. That would also solve our problem as we could have a simple default profile type and then have users move on to select the appropriate one for them

May i know where you read this?

By the way, currently we do not have Easysocial own subscription feature yet, but you can use Payplan 3rd party extension to integrate with Easysocial to achieve this.

So my question is, how can we reveal the "Select a Profile Type" function to socially registered users. Manually registered users already see it.

If you wouldn't like to set default profile type for your auth registered user. you can remove your default profile type from backend > Easysocial > settings > Facebook > Default Profile - select A profile, so that when the user register via Facebook, they can select which profile type they want to register in.

You can refer on my attached screenshot.

Our auth0 setup is creating a social login for Facebook, Google and LinkedIn. We want also to add twitter. How does ES manage that?

I would recommend to use Jfbconnect extension integrate with Easysocial.
