WordPress SSO Integration

[[R] NuclearGeneral]

This hook will enable Single Sign On integration between your IP.Board and WordPress installs. In short, if users are registered and logged in to WordPress on your website, and they then visit your forums an account will be made behind the scenes and they will automatically be logged in. Similarly, forum users can sign into WordPress with the username and password they use on the forums.

 

Why have users log in twice with two separate accounts when they can have one seamless experience?

 

This purchase entitles you to free updates.

 

New in 1.1.0: Users can now log in on IP.Board side with their WordPress accounts instead of having to visit WordPress first, allowing you to use the more advanced IP.Board login/registration methods over WordPress. Also, I have completed the integration WordPress side - users can sign into WordPress with their IP.Board accounts!

 

Key Features

• Highly configurable, no need to mess about with files - can be controlled via your IP.Board Admin CP.
• Can choose to sync usernames, or allow new users to pick their own display names upon first visit to IP.Board.
• Can choose to sync administrators from WordPress, making them administrators in IP.Board.
• Can choose the default user group that WordPress members are put into.

Requirements

• Requires at least IP.Board 3.1.4
• Requires at least WordPress 2.5
• Requires the WordPress Root Cookie plugin, to enable the WordPress cookies across your whole site so IP.Board can access them.
