[bipinchandra92]

Hi any one has implemented social login for posting comments ( for that components only not for site login)  in AEM6.1. Please share document if any..(with step-to-step)

Also if any one has integrated disqus with AEM 6.1 for comments or there any other options available?

You can try integrating linkedin social module authentication (OAuth2.0) to validate the user,

Refer:  https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/oauth2

Hi Bipin,

Are you licensing the AEM Communities capability?

If so, it would be easiest to use the Communities Sites console to create a site.  In this way, the infrastructure for logins, profiles, moderation, and translation are established for you.

All website content, other than Communities features that require login, remains accessible to anonymous site visitors.  The Communities features that require login are those that allow signed-in site visitors (members) to post "user generated content" (UGC).  Typically, you will want to moderate UGC and AEM 6.1 has improved the performance of UGC as well as the ability to moderate from the publish environment.

Further, with AEM Communities, you are able to create sections of the website accessible only to members using the Communities Groups feature.

The Geometrixx samples do show a sample login and use of Communities features not setup through the Communities Sites console.  The addition of a Comments component to an AEM site is described here.  I don't have, at hand, the references to other login examples.
