Social Login Error Auth0 403

Hello everyone,

I've installed an extension to my WordPress website. The extension is working correctly as does work without any problem with different social. I've configured the App on the Google Developer Cloud following the guide and everything seams working correctly.

I can log in as you can see from the screenshot below:

I've contacted again the Hivepress community (plugin) they are pointing to the server. The server is unmanaged so VPS so no restriction there. And I've already tried the following:

https://www.hostinger.com/tutorials/what-is-403-forbidden-error-and-how-to-fix-it (this applies mainly for hosting space but I did it) nothing changed.

any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi @riffermusic,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

Based on the information provided, it appears that you are encountering a 403 error when attempting to use the social login feature on your WordPress website with the Auth0 extension. This error can occur when the server is unable to authorize the request due to a lack of permissions.

Possible causes for this error include:

  • Incorrect configuration of the Google Developer Cloud App
  • Incorrect setup of the Auth0 extension on your website
  • Misconfigured server-side settings, such as incorrect permissions on the server

You have already tried some troubleshooting steps, such as checking your hosting space for possible issues, but it seems that the problem persists.

I would recommend to check your Auth0 extension settings, double check that the Auth0 application is configured correctly in the Google Developers Cloud Console, and also check that your server has the necessary permissions set up.

Additionally, you can check the Auth0 logs to see if there are any error messages related to this issue that can help you troubleshoot the problem.

The Google Developers Cloud Console provides detailed documentation on how to set up and configure Google Cloud projects and APIs. Here are the main steps you need to follow to configure a Google Cloud App:

  1. Go to the Google Developers Cloud Console: https://console.developers.google.com/
  2. Create a new project: Click on the project drop-down, and select or create the project for which you want to add an API.
  3. Enable the API: In the API Library, find the API you want to enable and click on it. Then click on the "Enable" button.
  4. Create credentials: In the API Dashboard, navigate to the "Credentials" tab, and then click on the "Create credentials" button. Select the "OAuth client ID" option.
  5. Configure the consent screen: Fill out the required fields, then click on "Save".
  6. Download the client secret json file.
  7. Configure the Auth0 plugin in your WordPress website by adding the client ID and client Secret.
  8. Add the authorized redirect URI in the Cloud Console.

You can find more detailed instructions and information on each of these steps in the Google Developers Cloud Console documentation, which can be found here: https://developers.google.com/console/help/new

It is important to follow the instructions carefully and ensure that all the required fields are filled out correctly to avoid any issues with configuring the Google Cloud App.

Thank you
