 * I use your shortcode [firebase_login button_text=’Signin’ redirect=’/’], and 
   occasionally while using, I get [firebase error] as the error message. Looks 
   bad, and I don’t want my users seeing that when the site goes live. Is there 
   any way to customize or suppress that kind of warning?

 * Hi [@mmw562](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mmw562/), the error message 
   is there in case the user enters the wrong information.
 * Can you provide more information:
 * – version of the plugin
    – snapshot of the error

 * I was trying to duplicate this morning and couldn’t get the same error. I just
   don’t want that showing up in the front-end errors. A formal message looks much
   better – and I don’t want them knowing I’m using firebase.

 * I think the best way is not to use the default `[firebase error]` shortcode. 
   Is it the error that you see in the console log or on the frontend?
 * It will be tough to hide that you are using firebase. It’s inside the network
   anyway, in case someone wants to inspect your site.

 * Dale Hi,
 * I ran into this again this morning. The error says this:
 * [Firebase] – <p>There has been a critical error on this website.</p><p>[Learn more about troubleshooting WordPress.](https://wordpress.org/support/article/faq-troubleshooting/)
   </p>
 * If not the [firebase error] what would you recommend?

 * Hi [@mmw562](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mmw562/), I’m not sure. Can 
   you send a link or images?
 * Which steps lead to the error?

 * The only steps that lead to the error are trying to log in. It’s inconsistent–
   doesn’t happen every time. I’ve gotten different error messages that I don’t 
   want shown to the user. I have attached the error I’m getting – exactly as it
   looks on the front end. I am currently using the [firebase_error] shortcode, 
   which you recommended against? In its place, what would you recommend?

 * Which authentication shortcode that you’re using? Can you send me your login 
   page? I can run some tests with it.

 * Hi [@mmw562](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mmw562/), if you can remove 
   the error shortcode if you don’t want to show them any. Or try with the social
   login shortcode.

 * I tried to log in with a new account, haven’t received the error yet. Not sure
   how it’s triggered.

 * Hello Dale,
 * I DO want to show them errors such as ‘User not found’ or something like that
   if they are not entering the right email, etc. What I DONT want is the ugly errors
   like the one I shared. Is there a way to customize or use some other way to return
   errors that doesn’t look like my database/site has crashed?

 * Hi [@mmw562](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mmw562/), the login can be updated
   in order to improve the message. It will take a bit of time. I will add this 
   to the backlog.

 * [@mmw562](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mmw562/) meanwhile, you can try
   the Email login of firebaseui. It has its own error features + multilingual, 
   so you can remove firebase_error shortcode.

 * Hi [@mmw562](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mmw562/), I updated the plugin
   with new error handling. Can you give it a try?
