I've developed a wordpress plugin for social login using facebook.
I'm using the facebook graph API /me
to retrieve the user details, What my problem is for some websites when installed a facebook login plugin i'm just getting user id and name only
Array
(
[name] => John doe
[id] => 398463877009801
)
but same code is working well for some websites as well.
Array
(
[id] => 398463877009801
[email] => something@gmail.com
[first_name] => John
[gender] => male
[last_name] => Doe
[link] => https://www.facebook.com/app_scoped_user_id/398463877009801/
[locale] => en_US
[name] => John Doe
[timezone] => 5.45
