Title: Google Authentication Problem Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Google Authentication Problem * Resolved [claridgematt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/claridgematt/) * (@claridgematt) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/) * Hi, * I’ve just installed this plugin and when trying to complete Step 1 of the setup, to authenticate with Google, I am receiving this error: * The page you have requested cannot be displayed. Another site was requesting access to your Google Account, but sent a malformed request. Please contact the site that you were trying to use when you received this message to inform them of the error. A detailed error message follows: * The site “[http://co.uk”](http://co.uk”); has not been registered. * Google reports that this authentication method has been deprecated. * Is there a way around this problem? I don’t particularly need access to private albums, so this step is probably not required, but the plugin demands it… * Any help would be appreciated. * Thanks Matt * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/pwaplusphp/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pwaplusphp/) Viewing 15 replies - 31 through 45 (of 110 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/2/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/?output_format=md) [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/2/?output_format=md) 3 [4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/4/?output_format=md)… [6](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/6/?output_format=md) [7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/7/?output_format=md) [8](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/8/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/4/?output_format=md) * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618900) * hi, I follow all the steps but images are not showing, I reset token but still nothing. any idea? * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618901) * it works now. first time I use a google developer account which was different from the google account I use for Picasa, now google developer account and picasa use the same google account. * [FeliciaRS](https://wordpress.org/support/users/feliciars/) * (@feliciars) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618902) * Hi Scott, Unfortunately, I do not see any message. But when I run on one side[ pwaplusphp], the other galleries are displayed again. Without “refresh token” to use. Uses [pwaplusphp] perhaps a function that [pwaplusphp album = “Album Name”] does not call? After 1 hour is gone everything. I do not want [pwaplusphp] use, since there galleries are that should not be publicly visible. * Thank you for your work. * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618903) * 2 hours later… all pictures are goned! * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618904) * I reset token and it works again! it’s not really good if I need to reset token everytime!!! * [rjdougan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rjdougan/) * (@rjdougan) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618905) * I have remove the old version and reinstalled 0.9.10 After a period of time the images finally are showing. Will continue to monitor to make sure they don’t disappear. * Thank you for addressing this issue. * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618906) * disinstall version 0.9.10 and reinstall this version will solve my problem too? * Plugin Author [smccandl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/smccandl/) * (@smccandl) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618907) * [@jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/), please give it a try. If not I will need to send you a special debug version of the plugin to help figure out where the problem is. * Scott * Plugin Author [smccandl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/smccandl/) * (@smccandl) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618908) * [@feliciars](https://wordpress.org/support/users/feliciars/), both types of shortcode are setup to refresh the token automatically if it has expired. I will need to post a debug version of the plugin for you to use. * Scott * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618909) * I uninstall 0.9.10, delete all files and then install again. I key in the client ID and client secret, finish all the steps and it doesn’t work. I request again the token and this time it doesn’t work too but I have this error message : Warning: substr() expects parameter 3 to be long, string given in /home/naruwan/www/wp- content/plugins/pwaplusphp/showAlbumContents.php on line 286 * you can see it here: [http://www.naruwan.fr/taipei-metro-zhongxiao-fuxing-feng-jan-huang/](http://www.naruwan.fr/taipei-metro-zhongxiao-fuxing-feng-jan-huang/) * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618910) * sorry, it’s just warning message, I see the images after the list of warning messages. but before this warning wasn’t show, why it appear now? * I add this line in config.php: define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false); * but warning still appear 🙁 * [jroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jroy/) * (@jroy) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618911) * ok I also need to add this line in config.php: @ini_set(‘display_errors’, 0); * maybe it can helps. * now I will wait for 1 or 2 hours to see if my photos disappear again! * [wildnaturephotos](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wildnaturephotos/) * (@wildnaturephotos) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-authentication-problem/page/3/#post-5618912) * To give some positive feedback, I just installed version v0.9.9 (first time install) on a single site using the new Google token system and it went quickly and easily without a hitch.
