\nDoes it create new users in WordPress?\n\n

If a user logs in using their netFORUM Pro credentials and the user does not exist in WordPress, a new WordPress user will be created.

\nWhat should I consider when using this plugin for GDPR compliance?\n\n

The netFORUM Pro Single-Sign On plugin uses a cookie to save a GUID identifier for logged in users and stores the user’s email address from netFORUM as a WordPress user. This plugin does not store any additional personal information from netFORUM Pro.

\nHow do I reset user passwords?\n\n

Through this plugin, user passwords will remain in netFORUM Pro and will not be stored in WordPress. Password changes and resets must be done through netFORUM Pro.

\nI am getting a “Client credentials are required” error message. How do I fix this?\n\n

This error commonly occurs when the netFORUM xWeb credentials on the General plugin page are incorrect. To fix this, review your entered credentials.

\nHow can I create hyperlinks to netFORUM so that the WordPress user doesn’t have to login again?\n\n

The netFORUM SSO plugin saves the user’s xWeb SSO token in a cookie in WordPress which can then be appended to a netFORUM link. The token is located in the cookie field ssotoken.

We recommend installing a plugin like Insert PHP WordPress Plugin to add the below PHP code snippet to your pages or posts.

[insert_php]\n\nif(is_user_logged_in()){\n  echo 'netForum SSO Token is: ' .$_COOKIE['ssoToken'];\n}\n\n[/insert_php]\n

\nWould this plugin work with netFORUM Enterprise?\n\n

Since each implementation of netFORUM Enterprise is different, the SSO plugin must be customized for each Enterprise implementation. We offer the netFORUM Enterprise plugin as a paid commercial plugin. For more information, please contact us.
