When creating a new application, select Web Application as the Application Type.

Enter the Redirect URL provided in the Yahoo tab of the plugin settings.

Under Permissions, select Relationship (Social Directory) and choose Read/Write. Also enable OpenID Connect and select both Email and Profile permissions. Then click Create App.

Note: When entering the website URL in the Home Page URL field, make sure it exactly matches your actual website URL. For example, if your website URL is http://www.domain.com, enter it with www. If your website URL is http://domain.com, enter it without www.
