Unable to "login" via twitter API - wordpress

I have implemented a twitter login for my site, using a plugin called "Simple Twitter Connect".
Now what this plugin does is create a twitter login function for my site above the the comments section which allows users to use their twitter details rather than filling out name and email boxes.
Now the problem I am having with it is when it gets to the authorize page on twitter.com, after entering the details and then going back to the site it loads solicialize.gigaya.com page.
On the contents of the page it says
Failed connecting. Please try again later
I initially thought it must simply be something wrong with the plugin, however I have contacted the plugin author and he as said that gigya has nothing to do with his plugin nor does his plugin link to it.
I havent signed up to gigya nor implemented any of their functions on my site, so I'm not sure how this site gets into the equation.
If anyone wants to recreate the issue, the click here and login via twitter.
Can anyone suggest what the issue may be?

After the successful OAuth-Login you are redirected to the Callback URL associated with your Consumer key. The Callback URL can be configured - here's how you do it:
Log in to https://dev.twitter.com/apps
Select the application which you are using in your blog
Go to the "Settings" tab and you'll find the Callback URL under "Application Type"
Set the URL to your blog base directory (where the index.php is).

Wordpress ERROR :reCAPTCHA verification failed. Please Try Again

I'm new to wordpress, literally the first time using it, and now i am frustrated because i cannot even get in on the page even as an admin because of the error on the title.
So here's how it went :
i wanted to add social login for my web
i install nextend social login and use the google platform for it
i did every step right (i made sure of it, there's a list of steps in the nextend i just simply follow it)
i copy the secret id and cope, i verify it and i wanted to test it out
so i log out of my user, and i don't even see the google button to login (maybe because i haven't add it (i thought it's automatic))
and so i went to login using user and password turns out it gives me an error
ERROR :reCAPTCHA verification failed. Please Try Again.
i have searched at google, youtube and nothing seems to work, please help
Note : i cannot get into my account
Option 1: Examine what other plugins you have installed.
Perhaps one of them is interfering e.g if you have cache plugin, you might want to clear your browser cache and try again and/or disable the cache plugin entirely
Option 2: Disable and re-install
If you have access to the host account, you can disable and re-install the plugin via phpmyadmin or ftp as shown in the following article.

Go to your hosting login to WP through there to your admin panel.
Go to your google reCAPTCHA account get keys and paste them to your reCAPTCHA plugin on Wordpress again.

Contact form wp-json missing

I'm using Contact Form 7 plugin to display a contact form on my Wordpress site.
When I open the page with the contact form on it, the console shows a 404 error like this (where /contact-us is the page URL):
https://www.example.com/contact-us/contact-form-7/v1/contact-forms/32/refill?_locale=user (404) from api-fetch.min.js.
This isn't a valid Wordpress ajax URL - the correct URL should be:
https://www.example.com/wp-json/contact-form-7/v1/contact-forms/32/refill?_locale=user
All ajax calls used by the plugin are wrong, including the form's submit URL, so when contact form is submitted, all it does is refresh the page.
Can anyone provide any help?
Thank you.
I have the same problem, & it went away when I disabled another plugin - Litespeed Cache.
If you have any caching modules, or any modules that intercept the contact form functions, disable them all & see if the problem goes away. You should be able to identify the culprit relatively quickly.
[ETA] LiteSpeed-specific fix:
In Wordpress admin, under LiteSpeed Cache / Page Optimisation / JS - disable "Javascript deferred" and "Javascript combine".
(Answer found at
https://theme.co/forum/t/contact-form-7-not-submitting-recaptcha-3-issue/53371/5)
Firstly, Once the user submits the contact form, It will automatically reload the page as it uses POST method where it sends the data entered by the user to the database or sends an email. So the page will be reloaded and if you dont want it to be reloaded then you can check online on how to make a form using AJAX. In wordpress, there might be plugins for it.
For the Error:
Please go to your FTP server and then delete the plugin you are using for the contact form and download it again. If it doesnt work then you can rollback to the previous version(maybe this can fix it)

Always showing cookies error for a first time visitor trying to login

I am using WPBrigade plugin "LoginPress" and has a login page which is created from file: wp-login.php.
If a new visitor is logging into the site, it displays an login_error with the following warning:
quote Error: Cookies are blocked or not supported by your browser. You must enable cookies in order to use WordPress.
If the user tries to login again without clicking on the link provided by the error message and do not adjust browser settings regarding cookies the login works fine and the user is logged into the site. If they click on the link they are redirected to wordpress official site regarding cookies. If they then return to the site it works fine (since it's a second attempt like in the first case).
My problem is that I want the user to be able to login without having this warning that disturbs the user experience. The login process is now 2 steps with a mandatory second try that works. I want it to work the first time. I can't seem to find the solution plugin documentation, and niether on wordpress site.
Check the issue by enabling the debugging in WordPress

WordPress “wp-admin” redirecting to a user account login

I’m getting a very strange error. When I try to log in to the back-end of WordPress at the address mysite.com/wp-admin, to access the back-end, I am automatically being redirected to mysite.com/login.php... as if I were trying to log into an account as a regular user or a customer.
I’m a novice with WordPress, and I can’t seem to figure this out. Please help.
I have a website which allows some of the users to post available jobs around the block and others apply through it.
Thank You
I'm not using any plugin to implement the front-end at all.
I tried to login using the regular admin credentials and it didn't work.
A way to login the back-end so i can customize the site
It sounds like you have a theme redirect. Try logging into your site using the login page it should function the exact same way. If not try seeing if the theme has any documentation about its redirect. and if you are able to get to the admin section i personally like having ithemes installed which lets me set my own url for the backend. You can also try /wp-login.php as well.

Link on my website to facebook message a page

I would like to embed a link that will open site visitor's browser with their facebook account in "New Message" writing mode with the "to:" field already pointing to my Facebook page.
Is there a way to do this?
It's a wordpress site, so if there is already a plugin that can do this I'd be happy to know which (without asking the visitor for permissions to a facebook app).
Thanks!
You could try to use the FB.ui send dialog:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/send/
There is a parameter called "to" where you could try to add the ID of your Facebook Page. Although i am not sure if it works for Pages, but it´s worth trying.
