Thanks in forward. </p> http://bbshowcase.org/forums/topic/openid-for-bbpress-and-wordpress-integration#post-102 Fri, 01 Feb 2008 09:08:40 +0000 _ck_ 102@http://bbshowcase.org/forums/ <p>I have now put together some basic code which successfully interacts with OpenID servers. </p> <p>Unlike other solutions it doesn't requires any other libraries or special languages/features on the server other than CURL support (with SSL) which is fairly common.</p> <p>Unfortunately during this time OpenID has upgraded to 2.0 and certain providers like Yahoo will only accept 2.0 queries and not 1.1 which is all the code can handle.</p> <p>But if there is any serious interest, I could get bbPress to accept openid from wordpress.com/livejournal/aol/etc. which continue to allow 1.1 </p>
