 * Interesting issue here:
 * I’m looking in the function sgc_oauth_catcher():
 * in sgc-base.php there is the following check
    `if ( !empty( $_REQUEST['state']))`
 * Now, checking the URL returned by google, there is a state=popup_profile_connect–
   but strangely the $_REQUEST[‘state’] is null.
 * If I replace the final redirect in sgc_oauth_catcher():
 * `wp_redirect(home_url());`
 * Which should obviously never be reached, with:
 * `do_action('sgc_state_popup_profile_connect', $oauth );`
 * which would be called if $_REQUEST[‘state’] wasn’t returning null it works fine.
 * So… any ideas why $_REQUEST[‘state’] is returning null to php when I can clearly
   see it in the url, and why $_REQUEST[‘code’] is returning the correct value (
   which is also visible in the url)?

 * lol – ignore me, it was an issue with the redirect being included in the variable.
