<p>Discourse is a fantastic new forum that can add another layer to your WordPress community. This plugin allows you to create a fluid experience by using your WordPress installation as the authentication server, creating a single-sign-on (SSO) for your users!</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<ul>
<li>The Discourse option “Staff must approve all new user accounts before they are allowed to access the site.” needs to be disabled for this to work properly.</li>
</ul>
<p>Some Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Seamless integration into almost any WordPress installation.</li>
<li>Get setup within minutes through 3 easy steps. Anyone can do it.</li>
</ul>
<p>Coming Soon:</p>
<ul>
<li>Only allow access with certain capabilities or roles.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Credits</h3>

<li>Request processing adapted from Adam Capirola : https://gist.github.com/adamcapriola/11300529</li>
<li>SSO methods adapted from ArmedGuy : https://github.com/ArmedGuy/discourse_sso_php</li>

PrimeTime WordPress + Discourse SSO

Works exactly as it should. Make sure to check TWO checkboxes in the Discourse admin:

Enable single sign on via an external site (WARNING: USERS' EMAIL ADDRESSES *MUST* BE VALIDATED BY THE EXTERNAL SITE!)

Implement Discourse SSO provider protocol at the /session/sso_provider endpoint, requires sso_secret to be set



Works great

This plugin provides single sign-on capabilities for Discourse using WordPress user authentication.

<p>The WP Discourse plugin acts as an interface between your WordPress site and your<br />
<a href="http://www.discourse.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">Discourse</a> community.</p>
<h3>Use Discourse for comments:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Automatically creates a forum topic for discussion when a new blog post is published.</li>
<li>Associates WP author accounts with their respective Discourse accounts. Does not require DiscourseConnect.</li>
<li>Replies from the forum discussion can be embedded in the WP blog post. Select which replies to display<br />
based on post score and commenter “trust level” — see docs.</li>
</ul>

</ul>
<h3>DiscourseConnect</h3>
<p>The plugin also comes with optional DiscourseConnect functionality which lets you use your WordPress site as the<br />
DiscourseConnect provider for your Discourse forum.</p>
<p>This will override Discourse’s native (and powerful) login flow and is only recommended for use cases<br />
that strictly require such a setup, e.g. a site that is already using WordPress for large scale user management.</p>
<h3>Authentication from Discourse to WordPress</h3>
<p>The plugin allows you to use Discourse as an authentication provider for your WordPress site.</p>
<h3>Note</h3>
<p>The WP Discourse plugin requires PHP version 5.4.0 and greater. If >=PHP-5.4.0 is not available, the plugin installation<br />
will fail.</p>
