Description

HybridAuth 3 development has stalled. In order for CB Connect to progress HybridAuth needs to be replaced or rewritten specifically for CB. If replaced look into using strictly OpenID Connect and only supporting social sites that will work with it.

OpenID Connect doesn't support enough providers. Mainly Facebook. Major work on HybridAuth will need to be done instead.

Implement a CB Connect class per provider as Provider/Facebook.php for example with namespace CB\Plugin\Connect\Provider structure. Then use Guzzle for the token exchange process with standard HTTP requests.

HybridAuth is officially being replaced with my own implementation. Both Facebook and Twitter fully functional meaning an oAuth2 and oAuth1 implementations are done making it easier to implement others.
