Wordpress

As a popular and versatile content management system, Wordpress offers an array of authentication methods to ensure smooth access to your website or application

Set Up SAML SSO via WordPress

To integrate with our WordPress AD, you need a thirdparty plugin from Minioranges.

There are a couple of Miniorange plugins and the plugin you need is:

SAML & WSFED IDP (SSO using WordPress Users)

After installation you will have to setup the SAML connection in both Ideanote and in WordPress.
