How To Create a Social Login Form

Step 1) Add HTML:

Use a <form> element to process the input. You can learn more about this in our PHP tutorial. Then add inputs or social media links for each field:

Example

<div class="container">
<form action="/action_page.php">
    <div class="row">
      <h2 style="text-align:center">Login with Social Media or Manually</h2>
      <div class="vl">
        <span class="vl-innertext">or</span>
      </div>

      <div class="col">
        <a href="#" class="fb btn">
          <i class="fa fa-facebook fa-fw"></i> Login with Facebook
        </a>
        <a href="#" class="twitter btn">
          <i class="fa fa-twitter fa-fw"></i> Login with Twitter
        </a>
        <a href="#" class="google btn">
          <i class="fa fa-google fa-fw"></i> Login with Google+
        </a>
      </div>

      <div class="col">
        <div class="hide-md-lg">
          <p>Or sign in manually:</p>
        </div>

        <input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Username" required>
        <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password" required>
        <input type="submit" value="Login">
      </div>

    </div>
</form>
</div>

<div class="bottom-container">
<div class="row">
    <div class="col">
      <a href="#" style="color:white" class="btn">Sign up</a>
    </div>
    <div class="col">
      <a href="#" style="color:white" class="btn">Forgot password?</a>
    </div>
</div>
</div>

Step 2) Add CSS:

Example

* {box-sizing: border-box}

/* style the container */
.container {
position: relative;
border-radius: 5px;
background-color: #f2f2f2;
padding: 20px 0 30px 0;
}

/* style inputs and link buttons */
input,
.btn {
width: 100%;
padding: 12px;
border: none;
border-radius: 4px;
margin: 5px 0;
opacity: 0.85;
display: inline-block;
font-size: 17px;
line-height: 20px;
text-decoration: none; /* remove underline from anchors */
}

input:hover,
.btn:hover {
opacity: 1;
}

/* add appropriate colors to fb, twitter and google buttons */
.fb {
background-color: #3B5998;
color: white;
}

.twitter {
background-color: #55ACEE;
color: white;
}

.google {
background-color: #dd4b39;
color: white;
}

/* style the submit button */
input[type=submit] {
background-color: #04AA6D;
color: white;
cursor: pointer;
}

input[type=submit]:hover {
background-color: #45a049;
}

/* Two-column layout */
.col {
float: left;
width: 50%;
margin: auto;
padding: 0 50px;
margin-top: 6px;
}

/* Clear floats after the columns */
.row:after {
content: "";
display: table;
clear: both;
}

/* vertical line */
.vl {
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%);
border: 2px solid #ddd;
height: 175px;
}

/* text inside the vertical line */
.inner {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
background-color: #f1f1f1;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 50%;
padding: 8px 10px;
}

/* hide some text on medium and large screens */
.hide-md-lg {
display: none;
}

/* bottom container */
.bottom-container {
text-align: center;
background-color: #666;
border-radius: 0px 0px 4px 4px;
}

/* Responsive layout - when the screen is less than 650px wide, make the two columns stack on top of each other instead of next to each other */
@media screen and (max-width: 650px) {
.col {
    width: 100%;
    margin-top: 0;
}
/* hide the vertical line */
.vl {
    display: none;
}
/* show the hidden text on small screens */
.hide-md-lg {
    display: block;
    text-align: center;
}
}
