      I used Google button to create my account with the Social Login feature and I saw my new account created but then I logged out and I tried logging in with the standard login form (above the social login) it wouldnt let me, I logged in using the Social Login with Google button and it logged me in, but then I tried again, I logged out and when I tried logging in with the standard login, it kept saying I had the wrong password.

      So I clicked on Password Reset and it sent me an email message to my mailbox to reset the password.  I reset it to my same password I use on my Google account and now I could login using both the standard login form and the Google button in the Social Login block.

      I dont understand why it would not recognize my password until I reset it.  Can someone offer an explanation?  Thank you.
