For the Facebook part it says:
You are using a display type of 'popup' in a large browser window or tab. For a better user experience, show this dialog with our JavaScript SDK without specifying an explicit display type. The SDK will choose the best display type for each environment. Alternatively, set height and width on your window.open() call to properly size this dialog if you have special requirements precluding you from using the SDK. This message is only visible to developers of your application.
For the Google it's using the legacypeople API instead of the current People API...

Nothing happens if you try to register via Facebook or simply click on the Facebook button

Update: The developers did proactively reach out to help debug the issue after I had settled on another solution. Much appreciated.
1. When logging in with a FaceBook account, no login, no error, no partially registered account. nothing.
2. The "Tutorial On how to setup and get started : link" leads to 404 page.
3. Support seemed limited.
I am willing to change my review if any issues are addressed. I gave three star and not one/two because I did not try to contact support. Three other Social login plugins were tested prior to this one and functioned correctly, so the App ID and Secret were operational.
