| 21 | INSTALLATION |
|---|
| 22 | |
|---|
| 23 | To install this plugin: |
|---|
| 24 | |
|---|
| 25 | 1. Unzip the archive to your Movable Type directory. |
|---|
| 26 | |
|---|
| 27 | Each author who wishes to use an OpenID must then set up their profile |
|---|
| 28 | pages. To set up your OpenID: |
|---|
| 29 | |
|---|
| 30 | 1. In your author profile, set your Website URL to the URL you |
|---|
| 31 | wish to use as your profile. |
|---|
| 32 | 2. In the <head> section of that page, add the HTML tag: |
|---|
| 33 | |
|---|
| 34 | <link rel="openid.server" |
|---|
| 35 | href="<MTCGIPath>plugins/openid-server/server.cgi" /> |
|---|
| 36 | |
|---|
| 37 | OR |
|---|
| 38 | |
|---|
| 39 | <$MTOpenIDHeader$> |
|---|
| 40 | |
|---|
| 41 | If your profile page is a static HTML page, replace "<MTCGIPath>" |
|---|
| 42 | with the CGIPath to the copy of Movable Type where the plugin |
|---|
| 43 | is installed. |
|---|
| 44 | |
|---|
| 45 | To sign in with OpenID: |
|---|
| 46 | |
|---|
| 47 | 1. When presented with an OpenID signon form, enter the URL to your |
|---|
| 48 | profile page. If you are not logged in to Movable Type, you will |
|---|
| 49 | be prompted to log in. |
|---|
| 50 | |
|---|
| 51 | Try logging into LiveJournal with your OpenID at: |
|---|
| 52 | |
|---|
| 53 | http://www.livejournal.com/openid/ |
|---|
| 54 | |
|---|
| 55 | (You'll have to log out first if you have a real LJ account.) |
