Authenticate with Wordpress?

posts: 1

Hi everyone - new user here and I am really liking TikiWiki. I have been building a business interest group and first tried with DocuWiki but found it to be far too difficult to use. It has been daunting getting TikiWiki configured but so far so good.

One thing I am hoping is possible though, is authentication through Wordpress. I am using their membership tools to tie together several other applications and plugins - specifically, Buddypress, which I realize is not perfect but is fairly stable and works well with other apps. Would it be possible to have my members join through a Wordpress/Buddypress form and then have them show up as TikiWiki users?

I know I can't possibly be the only one who wants this but the most recent posts on this are many years old, and didn't get answered after all this time. There must be some way to make that work. Does anyone know how?

Hi Rob

Welcome to Tiki!

Sorry, no idea if WordPress even offers an authentication service to other apps, Tiki supports quite a few methods, LDAP, CAS etc with varying levels of reliability, so maybe if WP uses one of them there might be a way... sorry can't be more helpful, just saying hi really! mrgreen
