Please add wechat support

[frannnnk]

Can you possibly add the support to login via Wechat?

Wechat is the top1 communication and social platform in China and some other Asian countries which covering +90% of the smartphones in China and seen as people’s daily life tool. This will also enable developers to reach more than 549 million users. ( as you know Facebook and Twitter is not accessible in China).

Thanks a lot

Thanks, I'll have a look as time permits.

@nraboy are you currently looking into this? Otherwise I can try to take a look as well as I have a use case for this,

[nraboy]

Given my limited availability I only contribute bug fixes and enhancements to the project. I have been relying on the community for new features.

Given that information I encourage you to add the feature and submit a pull request.

I thought this is the appropriate place to comment this;

I'm looking for a way to implement an SNS that's not on the list(if successful, contribute it here of course), but have no clue where to get started since I have almost never modified public plugins.

If your time allows you, could you tell me where to start or any specific tips on this plugin?(Although I think I'm supposed to look into source code and figure out by myself..)

[nraboy]

The plugin is very modular. If you look at the source code and see how the other providers were implemented, I have confidence that you'll be able to figure it out.

Best,

I did indeed! I'll clean it, make it more generic(not specific to my project) and make a pull request. Thank you for reply!
