Fixed register_connected_account doesn't seem to correctly apply the _xfRedirect field

[Jake B.]

Affected version

2.2.8

When logging in with Google/Twitter/another OAuth provider for the first time you are prompted to choose a username. After this, you get redirected back to the register confirm page rather than the page you were on previously even though $redirect is being passed into the template with the correct URL. It doesn't seem to be getting passed into the <xf:redirect /> tag, so it just defaults to the index page

Actually, it looks like that redirect input is completely ignored on register anyways

Connected accounts seem completely broken.

I can't log in with Google on XenForo.com...

Thank you for reporting this issue, it has now been resolved. We are aiming to include any changes that have been made in a future XF release (2.2.9).

Change log:

When registering with a connected provider, correctly redirect to the specified return URL

There may be a delay before changes are rolled out to the XenForo Community.

I realize this is set for 2.2.9, but this has become a massive issue. people cannot login.
for over a month.

we need a hotfix for this.

The issue I reported wouldn't prevent anyone from signing up, they'd just get redirected to the incorrect place after

hrm, i'm seeing this after having google logins up for many years...

That's an issue on your end you've configured the wrong redirect url in your Google developer console when setting up your oauth app.

Thanks, somehow my client ID info was deleted in google tools.
made a new id and put in the new keys and it's working.

very strange.
