Wiki: Github authentication does not work
Actual behavior
When a user logs in with github, he is presented with the error "You have not been authorized to login to this site yet. Oops, something went wrong"
Expected behavior
The user is successfully logged in
Steps to reproduce the behavior
I configured github authentication as documented here. The 'login with github' button correctly appears and I'm asked to verify the login at github, but then I'm redirected back to 'https://smartlab-wiki.herokuapp.com/login/github/callback?code=XXXX' (with a 'real' code instead of XXXX) and the above error is shown.
What could I do to track down this issue?

This is the standard behavior. A user is not given access via social login unless its first authorized. To authorize a user, go into Settings > Users and click Create / Authorize User. Choose Github as the provider and enter the email address.
If you want any user to be authorized (read access) by default, you must fork this repo and modify the wiki/config.yml file to set the defaultReadAccess property to true. Then simply install wiki.js to Heroku from your fork.
