[Apple only] workaround for localhost

Apple Sign In service does not work with localhost, http or IP-only domains, so if you develop on local host, so follow below steps:

STEP 1
instead of localhost you will need to invent some placeholder domain (anything except example.com) e.g. site.com and use that domain instead of localhost in Apple Redirect-Back urls. Then, to redirect site.com to your localhost, use either (A) or (B) choice:
– (A) Use redirection extension (like this or others) in browser to redirect queries from site.com to localhost, and then jump to STEP 2 below.
or
– (B) Add virtual local domain name e.g. site.com (except example.com) pointing to 127.0.0.1. See the 1-3 lines about “How to setup virtual host”: https://gist.github.com/ttodua/b5f54429c00dad6e052b6ccbda08dcb0#file-readme-md . However, if you are not able to change your wordpress installation domain from localhost at this moment, then use this code from STEP 2

STEP 2
Add this code somewhere (eg. functions.php) to replace the redirect back url for Apple specifically:
add_filter(‘siwe_redirect_back_uri’, function ($url, $provider) { return ($provider === ‘apple’ ? ‘https://site.com/AUTH_RESPONSE_SIWE‘ : $url); }, 10, 2);
