My answer to "Why social buttons are not displaying on local lampcms"

This is my answer to a Question on Support site for LampCMS project


You need to configure each one of the services, for example, to enable login with Twitter you need to register with Twitter developer account. Same for Facebook.

The buttons are only going to appear for services that you enabled - you must have special user accounts for each one. For example, to enable LinkedIn button, find the section [LINKEDIN] in your !config.ini and setup your own OAUTH_KEY and OAUTH_SECRET
Once set, the button will appear.

Also you will need to logout and log back in because I think the block with the buttons are cached in session for performance reasons.

Instructions are in the !config.ini file.
