"Sign in with Apple" button's height

Hi.

I am using the “Sign in with Apple” plugin, and the button’s height does not seem to be rendering properly.

Has this button been tested with the new responsive engine?

These are the width and height setting I am using.

Could you please help?

Regards.

Hello, @miguel
Thanks for reaching out.

Please note that currently, the “Center-align” mode is under fixing by our development team, so we know about an issue with the alignment of the element.
However, I need to highlight that according to our documentation and field descriptions Height and Width are working only for Left-Align mode:

In order to display correctly this button on your side, please use “Left-align” mode and play around with the height and width of this element.

Best regards,

Ok thanks.

Another thing I am seeing is that when I change the mode to sign-up, it doesn’t update the button’s text. It still says “Sign in with Apple”. Shouldn’t it say “Sign up with Apple” instead?

Thanks.

Hello, @miguel
Thanks for the question.

Please note that the button’s text is not changed after signing up. It is due to the library we use for our plugin.

Best regards,

Thanks.

I don’t mean that the button’s text should be updated after sign up. I mean that when I set the button to sign-up mode, the text in the button still says “Sign in with Apple” when it should really say “Sign up with Apple”.

Another question: is there a way to add query strings to the url that the user is returned to after he has signed in/up with Apple?

Right now, it seems that the return url is set in the Backend API “applesignin”, specifically in the “redirection on success” dropdown list. My problem is that the user is coming from a url that has query strings (which define a user’s state), so when the plugin redirects the user, there’s no query strings and therefore the user’s state is lost (my app is a SPA). Is there any way to overcome this problem?

Also, if the user is redirected to the url specified in the “Redirection on success” dropdown field, what is the field “Redirect URL” in the step “Apple Signin” used for then?

Thank you.

Hello, @miguel
Thanks for the question.

Let me provide you with answers to each of your questions:

Actually, the text “Sign in with Apple” is provided by the official Apple library. So, the mode is called “sign-up mode”, but the title of the button is still “Sign in with Apple”.
It could not be changed.

Actually, here you can find all the pages of your application, where your user could be redirected after successfully signing in with Apple. You can’t add query strings to the URL.
I may not fully understand your idea, in which case I will need more details from you.

This redirect you set in your Apple developer Console. This is a Redirect for Apple, which is used for redirecting users from the Apple authentification page to exactly your application.

Also, please note that currently, we are working on improving this plugin. Thus, in our next release, we will remove Backend Workflows. I will notify you once it would be ready.

Best regards,

Hello. I have upgraded this plugin and it stopped working.

I have seen that the backend action doesn’t exist now. Did you remove it with the upgrade? If so, I thought you were going to notify me…

Can you please tell me what I need to do now to make the plugin work as before?

Thanks.

Hello, @miguel
Indeed, the plugin was upgraded not so long ago.

Now, you don’t need to configure the backend workflow, only the button, and Apple Console. Thus, plugin became faster and easier for use.

We notified all of our users in the official threads for this plugin :slightly_smiling_face:

Please note that we updated the documentation for this plugin and you can follow it in order to configure it, but it will be really easier since you don’t need any Backend Workflows.
