<p>New providers and features are being added regularly! See the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-oauth/changelog/" rel="ugc">Changelog</a> for details.</p>
<p>As a reminder, WP-OAuth is a still a pre-v1.0 release, which means some features may not work as intended or might change over time. Please report any bugs/issues to the support forum so they can be fixed as soon as possible. Thank you!</p>
<h4>Facts</h4>
<ul>
<li>With so many sites offering membership now, users may suffer registration fatigue and forget their passwords, or use the same password for several sites, increasing their security risk.</li>
<li><a href="http://www1.janrain.com/rs/janrain/images/Industry-Research-Value-of-Social-Login-2013.pdf" rel="nofollow ugc">56% of consumers</a> have at least one major social network profile they could be using for membership, registration and login purposes across multiple websites without having to maintain multiple accounts and passwords (2013).</li>
<li><a href="http://www.marketingprofs.com/charts/2012/7060/social-media-users-prefer-social-login-over-traditional" rel="nofollow ugc">40% of consumers</a> currently utilize social login (2012).</li>
</ul>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Free, unlimited, unbranded and white-labeled from the beginning. No upselling, no payment plans, no SaaS, no proxy authentication! WP-OAuth communicates from your WordPress site <em>directly</em> with the <em>trusted</em> third-party login providers.</li>
<li>WP-OAuth collects and stores ONLY the user’s <em>OAuth identity</em> in the WordPress database for future logins; no other user information is collected or stored.</li>
<li>Fully integrates with WordPress. Drops into existing WordPress sites and integrates with existing WordPress users.</li>
<li>Supports third-party authentication with Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, Github, Reddit, Windows Live, PayPal and Instagram via OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect. Providers can be enabled or disabled.</li>
<li>Automatic user registration if <em>Anyone can register</em> has been enabled under Settings > General > Membership.</li>
<li>Users can manage their third-party login providers via the standard “Your Profile” WordPress page. They may link more providers, or unlink existing providers.</li>
<li>Displays a message via Javascript to the user when they login or logout. This feature can also be disabled.</li>
<li>Add a custom login form to any post or page using the [wpoa_login_form] shortcode. Choose from 4 different layouts. See <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-oauth/installation/" rel="ugc">Installation</a> for details.</li>
<li>Customize the default login screen with a logo or background. Point the logo URL to your home page instead of WordPress.org. Hide the default username/password login form if you want. Automatically include login buttons for any providers that are enabled.</li>
<li>Supports cURL or stream context for the authentication flow, meaning the plugin should be compatible with a wide range of PHP servers.</li>
<li>The authentication flow was adapted from code samples provided by Google, Facebook and LinkedIn. It has been updated, rigorously tested and debugged for solid error handling. Provider implementations share much of the same code (very high code re-use) and the differences between the providers have been fully documented.</li>
<li>The user experience and on-boarding process was inspired by StackExchange/StackOverflow login system.</li>
<li>Extremely light-weight, optimized code base for high performance. Doesn’t require third-party OAuth libraries; everything is built first-class into the plugin. Previously, WP-OpenLogin required LightOpenID and Facebook-PHP-SDK, but this is no longer necessary. Keeps the bloat low and the performance high. Tested with P3 Plugin Profiler, WP-OAuth’s plugin overhead is around 0.001 seconds which is 6x less overhead than Akismet in the same run! That means there shouldn’t be a performance hit.</li>
</ul>

<h3>History</h3>
<p>This project is a continuation of <a href="http://github.com/perrybutler/wp-openlogin" rel="nofollow ugc">WP-OpenLogin</a> which was originally developed with OpenID in mind. We’re moving on; OAuth 2.0 is now the standard.</p>

<p>Login for Google Apps allows existing WordPress user accounts to log in to your website using Google to securely authenticate their account. This means that if they are already logged into Gmail – they can simply click their way through the WordPress login screen – no username or password is explicitly required!</p>
<p>Login for Google Apps uses <strong>secure oAuth2 authentication recommended by Google</strong>, including 2-factor authentication (2FA) if enabled for your Google Workspace (formerly known as Google Apps and G Suite) accounts.</p>
<p>This is far simpler to configure than the older SAML protocol.</p>
<p>Login for Google Apps is trusted by thousands of organizations from schools to large public companies. Login for Google Apps for WordPress is the most popular enterprise grade plugin enabling login and user management based on your Google Workspace domain.</p>
<p>Its plugin setup requires you to have admin access to any Google Workspace domain, or a regular Gmail account, to register and obtain two simple codes from Google.</p>
<h4>Support and Premium features</h4>
<p>Full support and premium features are also available for purchase:</p>
<p>Eliminate the need for Google Workspace (previously called “Google Apps and G Suite”) domain admins to separately manage WordPress user accounts, and get peace of mind that only authorized employees have access to your organization’s websites and intranet.</p>
<p><strong>See <a href="https://wp-glogin.com/glogin/?utm_source=Login%20Readme%20Top&utm_medium=freemium&utm_campaign=Freemium" rel="nofollow ugc">our website at wp-glogin.com</a> for more details.</strong></p>
<p>The Premium version allows everyone in your Google Workspace (Google Apps / G Suite) domain to log in to WordPress – an account will be automatically created in WordPress if one doesn’t already exist.</p>
<p>Our Enterprise version goes further, allowing you to specify granular access and role controls based on Google Group or Organizational Unit membership.</p>
<p>You can also see logs of accounts created and roles changed by the plugin.</p>
<h4>Extensible Platform</h4>
<p>Login for Google Apps allows you to centralize your site’s Google functionality and build your own extensions, or use third-party extensions, which require no configuration themselves and share the same user authentication and permissions that users already allowed for Login for Google Apps itself.</p>
<p>Using our platform, your website appears to Google accounts as one unified ‘web application’, making it more secure and easier to manage.</p>
<p><a href="https://wp-glogin.com/wpgoogledriveembedder" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Drive Embedder</a> is an extension plugin allowing<br />
users to browse for Google Drive documents to embed directly in their posts or pages.</p>
<p><a href="https://wp-glogin.com/wpgoogleappsdirectory" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Apps Directory</a> is an extension plugin allowing<br />
logged-in users to search your Google Apps employee directory from a widget on your intranet or client site.</p>
<p><a href="https://wp-glogin.com/avatars/?utm_source=Login%20Readme%20Avatars&utm_medium=freemium&utm_campaign=Freemium" rel="nofollow ugc">Google Profile Avatars</a><br />
is available on our website. It displays users’ Google profile photos in place of their avatars throughout your site.</p>
<p>Login for Google Apps works on single or multisite WordPress websites or private intranets.</p>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<p>One-click login will work for the following domains and user accounts:</p>
<ul>
<li>Google Workspace Starter</li>
<li>Google Workspace Business Standard</li>
<li>Google Workspace Business Plus</li>
<li>Google Workspace Enterprise</li>
<li>Google Workspace for Nonprofits</li>
<li>Google Workspace for Government</li>
<li>Google Classroom (Google Workspace for Education)</li>
<li>Personal gmail.com and googlemail.com emails</li>
</ul>
<p>Login for Google Apps uses the latest secure OAuth2 authentication recommended by Google. Other 3rd party authentication plugins may allow you to use your Google username and password to login, but they do not do this securely unless they also use OAuth2. This is discussed further in the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-apps-login/#faq" rel="ugc">FAQ</a>.</p>
