I'm working on an app that uses Yahoo OAuth. The OAuth had been working fine but I just registered my domain with Yahoo and now it will not let me use the OAuth when I develop locally because "Custom port is not allowed or the host is not registered with this consumer key."
The issue is because my call back URL is to a domain that is not registered with Yahoo (http://localhost:8080/welcome).
I'm not sure what to do. I'm also new to development so if you could be specific with suggestions that would be awesome! Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yahoo Oauth support in Mailbird – Mailbird. Yahoo is trying to increase security with their email client, that is why it will soon be mandatory for users to use Oauth to connect to Yahoo Mail if they are using an email client. Before that happen, Mailbird anticipated this by supporting Yahoo oAuth.
Yahoo API Steps:In the 1st field ("Yahoo API"), if you have a Yahoo account already, enter your account name, otherwise create a new account. 3. Where asked to select a radio button for "Authentication method", select "Generic, No user authentication required" and proceed futher - you'll manage to get your API key.
OpenID Connect is an authentication mechanism built on top of OAuth 2.0. Web, mobile, and JavaScript Clients can use OpenID Connect to verify the identity and obtain basic profile information of users.
The Yahoo Ad Platform uses OAuth2 and a JSON Web Token (JWT) to authenticate users and allow easy and secure access to protected services. Use your provisioned OAuth 2.0 credentials and follow the steps below to generate the JWT that is required to sign requests to our API.
Hiii... yahoo works on localhost :).. what you have to do is while registering for a yahoo consumer key and secret key, the registration page asks you what type of application is yours. I guess it gives you two options , website and the oder one as stand alone app. Choose stand alone app as in your case. Then it will give you a pair of keys, and it will work on localhost :). Enjoy!

It looks like Yahoo! doesn't want you to do this. Some answers from similar questions might be helpful (or not):
EDIT: more evidence Yahoo! doesn't support this: http://developer.yahoo.net/forum/?showtopic=6496&cookiecheckonly=1
