This extension implements a link at the end of the popup auth flow of Flarum that will make it possible to finish the login/registration in the new tab instead of going back to the original tab.

This workaround is required for embedded mobile browsers that use tabs/windows in place of popups and didn't implement the popup `opener` web API.

This problem affects multiple Flarum auth extensions, most notably FoF OAuth but also KILOWHAT Wordpress Integration and others.

This is meant as a proof of concept / temporary workaround until this gets properly fixed in Flarum directly.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

This extension is under **minimal maintenance**.

It was developed for a client and released as open-source for the benefit of the community. I might publish simple bugfixes or compatibility updates for free.
