Was there any further tips to resolve the “failed to obtain access token” error? I haven’t been able to figure it out thanks and apologies for the bumping of a topic.

julian Kind of new to NodeBB and not entirely sure how to find the output stuff, sorry. Here’s debug and oauth logs from MediaWiki though.

Ah okay. I installed the extension and sso-oauth2-multiple and created the app. filled in the information on MediaWiki and NodeBB but I don’t see anywhere to test the OAuth. How can I make it show up on the login/register area?

EDIT: Got it to show up on the login screen but I don’t know how to connect it to the MW extension.

I don’t think the base install does but there is a popular extension OAuth to implement an OAuth server.

Hey there I want to use NodeBB as a forum to a MediaWiki install. I want to allow users to login/SSO with their existing MediaWiki account. How could I accomplish something like this? Thanks in advanced
