How to use

Enable the extension
Create a new Member section with only a email field (no password)
- Optionally, create a input/textarea/textbox field for the Twitter handle
Set the required configuration values:

                
###### MEMBERS_TWITTER_LOGIN ######
'members_twitter_login' => array(
    'key' => 'REPLACE ME',
    'secret' => 'REPLACE ME',
    'twitter-handle-field' => 'REPLACE ME with a field id if you want to save the twitter handle',
),
########

Create a page and attach the Members: Twitter login event on it
Create the login form:

                
<form action="/twitter/" method="POST">
    <input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="/twitter/" />
    <input type="hidden" name="members-section-id" value="<Your section id>" />
    <input type="hidden" name="member-twitter-action[login]" value="Login" />
    <button>Log in with Twitter</button>
</form>

This form will redirect the user to twitter and then twitter will redirect the user your redirect url set in your twitter app setting.

Add another form to handle the actual log in process when the user comes back from twitter. This form can be auto-submitted

                
<xsl:if test="string-length(/data/params/url-oauth-token) != 0">
    <form id="twitterform" method="POST" action="{$current-url}/">
        <input type="hidden" name="oauth_token" value="{/data/params/url-oauth-token}" />
        <input type="hidden" name="oauth_verifier" value="{/data/params/url-oauth-verifier}" />
        <button>Validate</button>
    </form>
    <script>if (window.twitterform) twitterform.submit();</script>
</xsl:if>

If everything works, the user will be redirected to the ‘redirect’ value, just like the standard Members login.
