hi there- just discovering wordpress and want to sell my music online directly to listeners. looking for wordpress theme that matches my album cover: http://www.catherinesmusic.com/images/wwg_cover.jpg

i could take the time to learn all of this, or i could just focus on having a life and hire someone to do it.

would love to get a quote from you on something really basic. you can check out what i’ve done so far at http://www.catherinesmusic.com/wp.

Works a treat.

Bear in mind that you must have CURL enabled on your web server. I had to reinstall the CURL library and recompile PHP using –with-curl to get this to work.

Hi there–

Tried the plugin in WP 2.3, with myopenid.com identity. A the dance with the provider worked fine, the user is created within WP, but then I’m left at

wp-login.php?extra=&openid.assoc_handle=…

containing only the text of

is_valid:true

I do not appear to be logged in. This happens both the first and subsequent login attempts.

Any idea?

I attempted to use your plugin on my test site today, and when I attempted to login with one of my OpenID logins, I proceeded to the verification page, and then when I confirmed the login and being redirected back to my site, I received a large number of errors regarding the header being sent already.

If you would be able to provide some information regarding this problem please let me know, should you be able to help me, I will provide a well written review of your plugin and as such hopefully encourage more people to use your plugin.

This is from Wikipedia:

“Two major identity providers online, AOL and Yahoo!, can currently be used with OpenID. AOL’s system, using openid.aol.com/username, is currently in beta. Yahoo has unofficial, third-party OpenID support at idproxy.net.”

Also, Flickr’s login is now merged with Yahoo’s, isn’t it? As such, it would seem to me that using one method or another, an OpenID can function for Yahoo/Flickr or AOL/AIM, killing two birds with one stone, as they say.
