Title: [Plugin: Flattr] Cannot authorize with application Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Flattr] Cannot authorize with application * Resolved [berinder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/berinder/) * (@berinder) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/) * Hello, * I’m working thru the Advanced setup and is stuck on step 7. I have filled in my key and secret but nothing happens when i click Authorize. * I have tried to confirm it using step 8 but i get nothing. * If i instead try to use teh reauthorize option on the bottom i get a message saying: “An error with the sent parametrs occurred.Go back”. * Not sure if problem is located in plugin or at the flattr-api, obviously. * Regards, Leif Ershag * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/flattr/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/flattr/) Viewing 15 replies - 16 through 30 (of 62 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/?output_format=md) 2 [3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/3/?output_format=md) [4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/4/?output_format=md) [5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/5/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/3/?output_format=md) * Plugin Contributor [Michael Henke](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aphex3k/) * (@aphex3k) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922898) * so, your running wordpress 3.1 and flattr plugin 0.9.22.2 ? * Thread Starter [berinder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/berinder/) * (@berinder) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922899) * Yes and Yes, First try was with 3.0.5 and tried again with 3.1 today. * I have also tried to remove the old app and registred a new one with no success. * Plugin Contributor [Michael Henke](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aphex3k/) * (@aphex3k) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922900) * I’m sorry, I have absolutely no idea why it’s not working… * Thread Starter [berinder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/berinder/) * (@berinder) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922901) * Thanks for the try, will have to settle without autosubmit and rss-buttons then. * Thanks for the effort! * Plugin Contributor [Michael Henke](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aphex3k/) * (@aphex3k) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922950) * Do you think there might be a problem with your webserver communicating with flattr.com? (e.g. firewall rules for outgoing traffic invoked by php curl module) * Thread Starter [berinder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/berinder/) * (@berinder) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922951) * I’m planning on running some debug-sessions soon, see if i can find the problem. the curl-settings is very possibly a hinder. I’m not in control of the server and the settings so it sounds like a proable cause. * [Jan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jan/) * (@jan) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922982) * I have the same problem.

Because that’s the URL that is used for the callback. * If the callback domain is not the problem, then I don’t know, sorry. Fixing the domain solved the issue for _me_, but maybe in your case it’s a different issue. * [Numendil](https://wordpress.org/support/users/numendil/) * (@numendil) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922997) * Thanks for the answer * So, when I’m in the admin panel (so logged on, in the editing options for the Flattr plugin), i’m still on [http://pixellibre.net/wp-admin/admin.php?page=flattr/settings.php](http://pixellibre.net/wp-admin/admin.php?page=flattr/settings.php). * So, I’m on the domain, even if I’m on the wp-admin pannel, right? * In all case, there’s one thing i don’t understand : the plugin seems to work cause when i publish a new post, this post is also created on flattr. I can click on the Flattr Button, then log in into flattr and all theses thing BUT, when i’m logged into flattr, theses topics are not in my account… it like if the pixellibre’s posts are (and aren’t in the same time) mine. * Jan, thanks for your help, I’m gonna wait & see if me or someone else is able to find an issue 🙂 * Thread Starter [berinder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/berinder/) * (@berinder) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/2/#post-1922998) * What happens is that the first time you are flattred the item is created in flattr. com. * What you don’t have is the automatic creation of flattr-items at the time you publish your blogpost. * I still have the same problem btw, can you confirm that when you click (re-)authorize on the application the token part of the url are empty? * This is how my looks: oauth_token=& * //LE Viewing 15 replies - 16 through 30 (of 62 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/?output_format=md) 2 [3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/3/?output_format=md) [4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/4/?output_format=md) [5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/5/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/3/?output_format=md) The topic ‘[Plugin: Flattr] Cannot authorize with application’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/flattr_fafafa.svg) * [Flattr](https://wordpress.org/plugins/flattr/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/flattr/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flattr/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flattr/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flattr/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flattr/reviews/) * 62 replies * 11 participants * Last reply from: [Gwyneth Llewelyn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gwynethllewelyn/) * Last activity: [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-flattr-cannot-authorize-with-application/page/5/#post-1923104) * Status: resolved
