I have an existing Discourse forum with just over 100 users, and a Wordpress site with about 1150 users, some of whom will be the same people with the same email address. I’d like to use the WP Discourse plug-in to connect the two, using WP as my SSO provider, but am not entirely clear on what happens to existing users. Will existing WP users automatically get Discourse log-ins? Will existing Discourse users automatically get WP log-ins? What will happen to users who are already both on WP and Discourse? Thanks for any clarity you can give me on what will happen!

I am using OAuth now but it is messy and confusing to my users so I want to switch to full SSO.

What does your WordPress registration form look like? Is it similar to the screenshot that I posted above? If it is, then you are using the default WordPress registration system. For this case, there shouldn’t be any problems for existing Discourse users logging into their Discourse accounts. If you’re not using the default WordPress registration process, then there will be some issues to sort out for users who created their Discourse accounts prior to SSO being enabled.

I will have to expose a registration page because currently users sign up by subscribing to a membership on the site with a form that takes their email, etc. I will have to add a way to register without a subscription for users who have legacy discourse accounts. Will I have to worry about current WP users if they signed up using a non-traditional (via Paid Memberships Pro plugin) registration?

PMP uses WordPress user accounts, there’s no problem there. Any users created via the PMP process will be accessible to Discourse SSO via WP-Discourse. Did you already find the code sample which allows PMP memberships to be reflected in Discourse groups?

I have not seen that sample, it would be very helpful!

[图片] dylanb: Will I have to worry about current WP users if they signed up using a non-traditional (via Paid Memberships Pro plugin) registration? Users who created their WordPress accounts prior to enabling SSO with WP Discourse will be considered to have valid email addresses. The only issue with using non-default registration systems once SSO has been enabled is that user’s email addresses will be marked as invalid. The plugin supplies a hook that you can use to validate your user’s email addresses. Using the hook requires adding a few lines of code to your site. There are details about how to use it here: How to turn off Discourse email verification?.

Dylan: Sorry, this is a bit of a tangent, but how do you find Paid Memberships Pro? I bought Memberpress (they don’t do a free or trial version) and whilst it’s functional, it is a bit clunky. I’d love to hear your experience of Paid Memberships Pro!

I’m not Dylan, but I have six clients running PMP between their sites/communities. It’s proven very effective for them, allowing them to extend their on-site offerings into the community with relative ease. There have been a few issues with membership based pricing and discounts being reflected when used with WooCommerce, but their support guys have worked pretty hard to resolve, in some cases going to far as writing custom code.

Oh, that’s good to know. I’ve no plans to use WooCommerce, so I guess the key thing is whether it’s possible to have the memberships connected to Discourse groups. My developer has connected the memberships in Memberpress to automatically attach a user to the Members Group in Discourse, so that I can provide access to a private set of categories. I assume the same thing will be possible with PMP.
