OpenID Login Working August 2
So after I went to a great deal of effort to compile a custom version of php on dreamhost to support GMP (long integer library) and jumped through several other hoops just to get openid support working I forgot to change the trust_root after I changed the URL. Anyway long story short openid logins are now working.
If you don’t know what that means check out a site like myopenid.com which will explain all about it. However, if you have a livejournal or other sixapart hosted blog you may already have your own openid. Google will reveal all if you ask.
Testing whether the OpenID login for WordPress works using Clamshell.
(Please delete if you like. Sorry for the inconvenience!)
No inconvenience at all. I tested it myself but I’m glad to see it works for others as well. I wish there was better support for alternative IDs (other than your url) so you didn’t have to change it in the manage account prefs if you want it to be different but I’m happy that it supports openid logins. Now I just wish there was good typekey support too (yes I know they also do openid but they seem to have a better supported system for things like the handle).
