Introducing OpenID for phpWebSite

The OpenID module for phpWebSite allows you to enable users to login to your website using their OpenIDs. Your existing users can link their OpenIDs to their account. In addition, you'll be able to delegate your website to an OpenID, enabling you to use your site as your OpenID identifier. This release requires phpWebSite 1.2.0 or later.

Delegation allows you to use your own website as your identifier while still using a third-party OpenID provider. This feature has no special requirements. However, to enable OpenID login, your PHP installation must support SSL, XML parsing and HTTP Fetching.

This module was made possible by the PHP OpenID Library (http://www.openidenabled.com/php-openid/) by JanRain, Inc.

You can grab the OpenID module from phpwebsite-comm on SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=81360&package_id=83570&release_id=575522

If you have any questions about the OpenID module, please file a Support Request at the project site:
