25INSTALLATION
26 
27To install this plugin:
28 
29    1. Unzip the archive to your Movable Type directory.
30 
31Each author who wishes to use an OpenID must then set up their profile
32pages. To set up your OpenID:
33 
34    1. In your author profile, set your Website URL to the URL you
35       wish to use as your profile.
36    2. In the <head> section of that page, add the HTML tag:
37 
38       <link rel="openid2.provider"
39             href="<MTAdminCGIPath><MTAdminScript>?__mode=openid" />
40         
41         OR
42 
43        <$MTOpenID2Header$>
44 
45       If your profile page is a static HTML page, replace "<MTAdminCGIPath>"
46       with the CGIPath to the copy of Movable Type where the plugin
47       is installed.
48 
49To sign in with OpenID:
50 
51    1. When presented with an OpenID signon form, enter the URL to your
52       profile page. If you are not logged in to Movable Type, you will
53       be prompted to log in.
54 
55       Try logging into LiveJournal with your OpenID at:
56 
57           http://www.livejournal.com/openid/
58 
59       (You'll have to log out first if you have a real LJ account.)
60 
61       Or, to test OpenID 2.0, try logging into Fastladder with your OpenID at:
