Django allauth Faceook authentication: Reverse for 'facebook_login_by_token' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found

Question

I have looked everywhere on the internet for an answer to this problem but cannot find anything. I run into this issue whenever I try to access /accounts/login/

I have added the ID and secret key to my django admins page and added localhost:8000 to my Sites model as well as my Facebook app.

I do not only run into this problem when developing custom applications. I also run into this issue when I clone the allauth repo from github and follow the installation steps with the example application. Help would be much appreciated.

I just cloned the allauth repository, entered client id and secret key in the admin site, and added localhost to my sites. I logged out of admin and tried navigating to accounts/login/ but got the response below:

Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://localhost:8000/accounts/login/
Django Version: 1.10.5
Exception Type: NoReverseMatch
Exception Value:
Reverse for 'facebook_login' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found. 0 pattern(s) tried: []
Exception Location: C:...\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\lib\site-packages\django\urls\resolvers.py in _reverse_with_prefix, line 392 Python Executable: C:...\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\python36.exe
Python Version: 3.6.0

My installed apps are:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'django.contrib.admin',

    'allauth',
    'allauth.account',
    'allauth.socialaccount',
    'allauth.socialaccount.providers.facebook',
    'allauth.socialaccount.providers.openid',
    'example.demo'
)

The template that gives me this response when rendered is snippets/provider_list.html.

{% load socialaccount %}

{% get_providers as socialaccount_providers %}

{% for provider in socialaccount_providers %}
{% if provider.id == "openid" %}
{% for brand in provider.get_brands %}
<li>
  <a title="{{brand.name}}" 
     class="socialaccount_provider {{provider.id}} {{brand.id}}" 
     href="{% provider_login_url provider.id openid=brand.openid_url process=process %}"
     >{{brand.name}}</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
<li>
  <a title="{{provider.name}}" class="socialaccount_provider {{provider.id}}" 
     href="{% provider_login_url provider.id process=process scope=scope auth_params=auth_params %}">{{provider.name}}</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}

More specifically it is the url in the second list element:

   <li>
  <a title="{{provider.name}}" class="socialaccount_provider {{provider.id}}" 
     href="{% provider_login_url provider.id process=process scope=scope auth_params=auth_params %}">{{provider.name}}</a>
</li>

It seems that "{% provider_login_url ... %}" is the issue.

I would also give you the urls.py and views.py files but I have only used the {% url "name_of_url" %} format to reference urls and not the format above so I do not even know what {% provider_login_url %} is doing necessarily.

I have not changed any of the code. Everything is exactly from the files cloned from allauth.

Please provide an example of some code where you are trying to access this URL. — ChidG, Mar 08 '17 at 02:31
