I Configured and enabled the google login under social in easysocial 4 but its not showing up as an option for registration or login on the frontend
Hello Greg,

while we're talking about the google sign in, it looks like the wording is on the wrong line.
- It seems like a template issue. I have created a ticket for this.

so does that mean the plugin didn't install properly with the beta or was I meant to download it somewhere?
- There was some error in our installer that prevent the plugin from being installed. I have fixed this internally.

Hello Greg,

Have you installed this plugin? https://stackideas.com/apps/item/3460-google-onetap . This is needed to use the Google login feature.

oh i see, that wasn't clear in the settings, i wasted half a day trying to find a switch to turn it on after taking the time to configure it.

if an option requires an addon to work the settings should be hidden until the addon is installed or it should be clear that the option requires the addon, having the form for google authentication makes it seem like its a built in function. there was no indication that it was a paid addon leading to a bad day for me.

It might also be helpful to put together a bundle with all the easysocial addons rather than making customers buy them individually.

Hello Greg,

I am sorry for the confusion earlier. I thought you were saying about Google One Tap feature. You don't need that plugin to enable the Google login. Means something that prevent the google login from showing on your login page.

Seems like your site is missing Easysocial Authentication plugin. I have helped you install the plugin and you should be able to see the Google login on the frontend.

I've added two images, how it is now and what I believe it should look like.
