I have (hopefully) enabled OpenID for comments

April18

Please test it out if you have a chance and let me know if it works for you. I had trouble with this using my former software, but I am told this is quite stable in WordPress, and I would really like to allow people to do this.

Here’s hoping…

EDIT: just an update. The OpenID plugin seems to be working quite well. Feel free to use OpenID to make comments. :)

    Well, the OpenID option doesn’t seem to be appearing with this theme…I’ll play around a bit.

    Okay. It works using the default theme. I’ll play with themes later. For now, I’ll stay with the default until I have time to modify the theme I want and make it function how I want it to function.

    My blog is http://gwallgofi.com but you ask for OpenID in same field too and for that my OpenID is a subdomain…

    Otherwise OpenID does work :) Maybe I’ll move my OpenID to have the same URL as my website.

    What plugin did you use for wordpress to get openid working?

    Hi Pricey,

    I used WP-OpenID.

    The first theme I tried didn’t like it, but the other themes I have tried that are widget enabled all seem to work fine (don’t hold me to that, I didn’t try all of them).
