Locker pop-ups to increase user engagement.
AI-generated summary
A discussion on Content Lockers - using pop-ups was started by vinothkannans, who shared a plugin available on GitHub to increase user engagement through locker pop-ups. The plugin has two types of lockers: Social Locker and Guest Locker, both of which were showcased with images.
vinothkannans received positive feedback from kuyashi, who requested the option to remove the “Wait until 0 seconds” label from the bottom of Sign Up and Log In forms. vinothkannans acknowledged the issue and promised to check it.
However, several users reported compatibility issues with different versions of Discourse. Bikramjit_Bhangoo and sinertex reported that the plugin doesn’t work on Discourse 1.8 and 1.9, respectively. hunterxx222 reported issues with OAuth via Facebook or Google on Discourse 2.0 beta6.
vinothkannans acknowledged the issues and welcomed community contributions to fix them. criticalh and Alankrit_Choudh inquired about the status of the plugin, and vinothkannans confirmed that the social login buttons in the locker pop-ups are not working and moved the plugin to the #plugin:broken-plugin category due to lack of active development.

Great idea and nice implementation !
- Could we have the option to remove the
Wait until 0 secondslabel from the bottom of Sign Up and Log In forms as below ?
It should be removed. Maybe a recent bug. I will check it.

@vinothkannans Does not work on Discourse 1.8. Does it work only on the latest version of Discourse?
I didn’t tested it with Discourse 1.8 yet. It may have some ember issues.
Is it possible to edit the popup text?
It doesn’t work on v1.9, is there any chances for an update?
Thank you!

It is working for me. Did you enabled it in site settings? Are you receiving any error in the browser console?
The plugin works on Discourse 2.0 beta6, but somehow I couldn’t get OAuth via Facebook or Google works. The Login with Facebook / Google buttons don’t open new popups like the usual login window. Do I miss anything or is it a plugin’s bug?
You can take a look at my site
It looks like js code strategy for social account logins are changed. I welcome PRs from community to fix this issue.
Has this been fixed please ?
Is it difficult to fix ?
Hello @vinothkannans i am just curious to know if it is working with the latest discourse as i see the commits on the plugin are 1 year old approx.
I moved this to #plugin:broken-plugin category since it’s not in active development. I can confirm the social login buttons in the locker pop-ups are not working.
