Are you finding that you can't remove openid's from your account?
Because it works for me. What version of php are you using?
intval is correct - it wants an integer number from the string (or zero) - strval would be a string, but maybe $user->openid is not being stored as an array in integers like I am expecting?
The session clearing is a valid point, I added the sessions as a last minute compromise to get the new account registration finally finished and it's not polished at all.
I'm using 0.0.2. I've been getting a 403 error on account registration (register.php) and login(bb-login.php) - both. any help is appreciated. By the way mine is a test site (without any other plugins) so feel free to play around. http://forum.binaryturf.com.
Your contribution and development is very appreciated.
The openID plugin is preventing me to launch my forum. I hate phpbb. Maybe I should just pay up and go with VBulletin. BBPress and openID needs some serious support.
If openid is critical to you, you should buy a commercial solution like vbulletin.
Not critical don't have a million dollar community either. But I did get it to work. And yes vbulletin doesn't have openid.
So finally I'm at a point where I can start hacking around and make the registration better. I'll send you a url if I get it fixed.
By the way openid should be an integral part of any good forum. http://allinthehead.com/retro/309/why-your-forum-software-needs-openid
Also I don't think BBpress needs to be left out in favour of any commercial solution. Developers like you and me (I'm a dev too) give them a competition. I love BBpress and I'll be migrating from phpbb in just a week. Keep up the good work! :)
wrt the issue pixelfreak was having clearing the session I noticed a similar concern. When I sign in using an openID provider and check their box "keep me signed in", the session of the openid provided never gets cleared and thus even if you logout from bbpress, the openID provider's session is still there.
This throws Firefox into an endless loop "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete..."
Anything we can do on our side to stop redirecting back to the login-page (which I think is the case).
I'm not into php development, but just want to add my +1 and say that it would be really good to see well developed openid support in bbpress.
The google openid doesn't seem to work... the others work I think... the only one I've tried is the aol openid, which did work. But if I go to my profile, click on edit, then enter google.com into the open id box... it goes to google but says "invalid page".
Any ideas?
Google tampered with their interface a bit, give me an hour or two or make and test a fix.
Okay try 0.0.3 when you see it posted here and let me know, thanks.
Works, thanks!!
I am having the same problem everyone else is having with logging in from bb-login.php. Firefox causes an endless loop. It works fine if I login from the sidebar. I'm using google to login and it also works fine if I make sure I'm logged out of google first. But, if I've already logged in once, then I log out, then try to log back in, the endless loop occurs. It must be because google or whatever openid service you use wants to re-direct back to bb-login.php, but I guess bb-login.php doesn't like that :).
Anyone have any suggestions?
Let me try some things, I should probably clear the session on logout.
Can you try replacing this file and let me know if it fixes it for you
http://plugins-svn.bbpress.org/openid/trunk/openid.php
Thanks for helping me out. That doesn't appear to work though... still getting re-direct loop error. Only when logging in from bb-login.php and only when already logged into google.
It's ok though, I'm just going to make users login via the sidebar if they want to use OpenID.
Sorry, I'll have to investigate it some more.
What's the current status? Does it work with Google OpenID?
Yes it should work fine with google.
My *.mp OpenID is not working with BBPress, any thoughts?
ERROR CODE: OPENID_NOSERVERSFOUND
ERROR DESCRIPTION: Cannot find OpenID Server TAG on Identity page.
I would need to know the service you are trying to log into.
Note that this plugin only allows you to use other providers as an OpenID service.
It does NOT make your bbPress into an OpenID provider.
I am trying to log into my bbpress forum with laurel.mp which is my OpenID. Does that answer your question?
I just tried entering laurel.mp into a test install with my openid plugin and it seems to work, it takes me to https://secure.mp/s/laurel.mp/login - do you get that far with your tests? Or does it fail later on, like after you login in there...
update: I created an account to test and I can see there is some kind of problem I will have to work out with their servers...
