Is "partial" SSO possible?

You know how when a user tries to log in/create an account they’re presented with the email/password fields, but on the right of that it gives them options to log in with Facebook, Google, etc? Could I simply have my site’s account be one of these options on the right?

It depends on what you mean by “SSO”:

• If you’re talking about Setup DiscourseConnect - Official Single-Sign-On for Discourse (sso), then you cannot use it alongside other login options.

• If you’re talking about OAuth2, OpenID Connect, or any of our other authentication plugins, then yes they can be used alongside each other, and alongside email/password login.

(like the invite features)

Good news on that front - we’ve recently added invite support for DiscourseConnect

And for other login methods:

These changes are live in the latest version of Discourse
