The only requirement is your PHP needs CURL with https (ssl) support, which many servers have or can easily add ie. via cpanel's rebuild PHP (check your PHPINFO to be certain).</p> <p>I finally got an old openid 1.1 framework working with openid 2.0 so this makes it possible to use it with all the newest providers: aol, <a href="http://openid.yahoo.com/">yahoo</a>, <a href="http://dev.live.com/blogs/devlive/archive/2008/10/27/421.aspx">microsoft</a> and now <a href="http://google-code-updates.blogspot.com/2008/10/google-moves-towards-single-sign-on.html">even Google</a> (as a "consumer", not as a server).</p> <p>The biggest problem was making it work without extra libraries like the complex math support and even DOMXML which is not available on many shared hosting PHP4 servers. But found a way around that too ;-) I'll eventually add fsockopen support with ssl so even CURL is not a requirement.</p> <p><a href="http://amazon.com/paypage/P2FBORKDEFQIVM">Donations highly recommend</a> if you are interested in the continuation of this plugin!</p> <p>ps. OpenID on Wordpress.com needs to be fixed to offer a secure login when a cookie is not present like every other provider. This is annoying :-( </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/hiring-a-plugin-developer#post-20162 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 16:56:47 +0000 earcos 20162@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hello, I'm looking to hire a developer to create a OpenID login plugin for bbpress, which I really need for my community. I know there has been several discussions about this topic but I really believe OpenID for bbpress is important and necesary. </p> <p>So I am looking for someone willing to create a plugin. If anyone is interested, please send me your inquiries to: <a href="mailto:e@arcos.cc">e@arcos.cc</a> -- I would really like the plugin to work on 0.9.x and 1.0.x versions of bbpress which I understand are quite different. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/login-using-facebook-connect#post-19344 Sat, 20 Sep 2008 10:06:53 +0000 inztinkt 19344@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>The facebook connect system will be launched shortly, could we use this to login to bbpress and thus integrate with an already 'connected' wordpress site? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wanted-openid-for-bbpress#post-13643 Tue, 05 Feb 2008 19:52:50 +0000 _ck_ 13643@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I've now made an early 0.0.1 openid plugin available:<br /> <a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/openid" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/openid</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wanted-openid-for-bbpress#post-13638 Tue, 05 Feb 2008 14:53:15 +0000 benbeltran 13638@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>@ __ck__: I was planning on tackling this, since I just love OpenID.

It didn't work for me. I had the plugin activated on my WordPress site and was able to login and create users just fine, but bbPress didn't know about the credentials and wouldn't login.</p> <p>I need to get more familiar with how the integration is working - I thought it would work fine since it created a normal Wordpress user record. But it kept saying the userid was unknown... Will probably dig into it later. The WP plugin is great - the persona fill in stuff is very cool. Only quirk was my 'Display As' defaulted to the userid even though a name was included. But I digress. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wanted-openid-for-bbpress#post-9791 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 14:06:31 +0000 Null 9791@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>A plugin would be best I think. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wanted-openid-for-bbpress#post-9790 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 13:56:05 +0000 sambauers 9790@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>There are some very specific requirements to claim one of those OpenID bounties. bbPress doesn't have enough users to qualify.</p> <p>Currently I can't imagine bbPress getting native OpenID support, so a plugin is your best bet.</p> <p>I'm happy to help with the plugin, I'm pretty familiar with bbPress' authentication routines. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wanted-openid-for-bbpress#post-9789 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 13:13:41 +0000 so1o 9789@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>If you integrate bbpress and wordpress.. you can use openID plugin for google on bbpress as you will be sharing the users from wordpress on bbpress.. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wanted-openid-for-bbpress#post-9784 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 07:12:27 +0000 _ck_ 9784@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Too bad Google also has it's own API and doesn't do openid (yet?)<br /> But in theory bbpress could be made to use google identities... interesting....</p> <p><a href="http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/Authentication.html" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/Authentication.html</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wanted-openid-for-bbpress#post-9783 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 06:56:49 +0000 _ck_ 9783@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Apparently there is a $5000 bounty for putting openid into a project?
