VK - velruse.providers.vk

The VK (ex Vkontakte) provider authenticates using the OAuth 2.0 API with the VK API to obtain additional profile information for use with user registration.

To use the VK authentication, you must register a VK application for use with Velruse. You can do that by using the following links to learn about and create said application. Once you have done so, you will be supplied with a consumer key and a consumer secret specific to VK.
