Dear Akeeba Support Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I selected Admin Tools as the Category as there was no option for Social Plugin. I am writing with urgent matter regarding a bug occurring in the Joomla Social Login plugin. We have integrated the plugin to allow LinkedIn-based account creation; however, we seem to be experiencing critical issues when users attempt to register normally (i.e., without the LinkedIn feature).
The error we are encountering is "Call to a member function getParams() on null". While the account verification from the backend is successful, users are still greeted with this error upon completion of their registration or following their verification link. Notably, this issue arises immediately when 'New User Account Activation' is set to 'Self' and post-verification when it is set to 'None'.
The primary issue seems to arise at the point of user verification after registration, particularly when someone chooses to register without using LinkedIn. When the plugin is disabled the problem is no longer there so we've confirmed it's caused, in part, by the plugin.
This issue is creating a significant bottleneck in the registration process, causing confusion and frustration amongst users.
We realize that troubleshooting these complications requires a substantial effort. Therefore, I want to provide as much information as succinctly as possible to facilitate the investigation process.
The relative path highlighted by the issue is:
1. () JROOT/plugins/system/sociallogin/src/Features/ButtonInjection.php:158
2. Joomla\Plugin\System\SocialLogin\Extension\SocialLogin->getReturnURLFromBackTrace() JROOT/plugins/system/sociallogin/src/Features/ButtonInjection.php:68
Should you require any further information or clarification regarding this issue, please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to your speedy response.
