Sign In Module not showing openid/oauth providers?

I'm trying to implement a landing page that requires users to log in before they can see the content.

I've been informed of how to use the module settings to hide the content and the sign in module appropriately for whether the user is logged in or not.

However, I don't see the openid/oauth login methods when looking at the Sign In Module content.  If we have registered users who've used that method, that means they aren't able to log into the page.  Is there support for openid in the Sign In Module?  Otherwise I'll need a different solution for sign-in.

Thanks.

I think this will be a feature request to add the alternate login methods to the sign in module.

But as a workaround, instead of using the sign in module, you can use an HTML instance with a link to

/Secure/Login.aspx?returnurl=/SecuredLandingPage.aspx

This way they will be able to use whatever sign in method they need, and once signed in they will be returned to the landing page.

Thanks Jamie.  That will do fine for now.

Just wanted you to know that it works great.

I have another question though...when the user logs in, I'd like to present them with a chance to update their profile information.  Something like showing them their "My Account" page, but with a message asking them to please make sure their information is current.  I'd then like it to continue to the page in the returnurl.  Any idea how I might accomplish this without resorting to a custom module?

I want this to happen when they come in through my special url, but not every time they log in in general.

Well, you could blindly direct them to My Account after sign in by changing that returnurl parameter, but I don't know of any way to make a roundabout redirect with custom message like you're describing.

Maybe you could just show a nice prominent link or image in one of your protected modules on the landing page that says "Please make sure your account information is current".

Yeah, that sounds like the best bet.  Thanks.
