WP-OpenID-SIU-UPM

A WordPress plugin to authenticate users via a OpenID Provider. This plugin is based on nicko170's wp-openid and it is adapted to work seamlessly with UPM's SIU.

The WordPress Login Page

Installation

  1. Download the latest release from GitHub Releases
  2. In WordPress, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin and upload the zip file.
  3. Activate the plugin.
  4. A new OpenID menu item will appear in the WordPress admin Settings menu.
  5. Follow the instructions on the Settings page to configure the plugin.

Setting up Keycloak

  1. If you don't already have a Keycloak instance, you can run it up in Docker

  2. Sign in to your Keycloak instance with your administrator account.

  3. From the Admin dashboard, go to Clients > Create.

  4. Enter the following values:

    • Client Type: OpenID Connect
    • Client ID: wordpress
    • Name: WordPress
  5. Click Next, and enable Client Authentication. You can leave the other options as their defaults.

  6. Click Save, and set your URLs:

    • Root URL: https://example.com/
    • Valid Redirect URIs: https://example.com/index.php?rest_route=/openid/callback
    • Admin URL: https://example.com/wp-admin
    • The other URLs can be left as their defaults.
  7. Click Save, and copy the Client ID and Client Secret values from the Credentials tab.

Configuration

The plugin requires the following configuration options:

  1. Metadata URL (e.g. https://example.okta.com/.well-known/openid-configuration or for Keycloak https://example.com/auth/realms/example/.well-known/openid-configuration)
  2. Redirect URI (e.g. https://example.com/wp-login.php?openid=callback)
  3. Client ID (e.g. 0oa1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j)
  4. Client Secret (e.g. 0oa1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0oa1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j)

You can set these options via the Settings > Okta page in the WordPress admin, or in your wp-config.php file if you don't want them to be editable by other users:

define('WP_OPENID_METADATA_URL', 'https://example.okta.com/.well-known/openid-configuration');
define('WP_OPENID_REDIRECT_URI', 'https://example.com/wp-login.php?openid=callback');
define('WP_OPENID_CLIENT_ID', '0oa1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j');
define('WP_OPENID_CLIENT_SECRET', '0oa1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0oa1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j');

Settings Page

Mapping User Attributes

You can map user attributes from your OpenID Provider to WordPress user meta fields using the Settings > OpenID page.

The following WordPress user attributes are supported:

  • user_login: The user's login username
  • user_url: The user's website URL
  • user_email: The user's email address
  • display_name: The user's display name
  • nickname: The user's nickname
  • first_name: The user's first name
  • last_name: The user's last name

The following OpenID Connect attributes are supported:

  • sub: The user's unique identifier
  • preferred_username: The user's preferred username
  • name: The user's full name
  • given_name: The user's first name
  • family_name: The user's last name
  • middle_name: The user's middle name
  • nickname: The user's nickname
  • profile: The user's profile page
  • picture: The user's profile picture
  • website: The user's website
  • email: The user's email address

This plugin will also add the upmClassifCode values to user metadata.

Attribute Mapping

User matching is performed by matching:

  • The sub claim from the ID Token to the openid_id meta field on the user
  • The email claim from the ID Token to the user_email field on the user
  • The preferred_username claim from the ID Token to the user_login field on the user

If you have remapped the email or preferred_username claims, your mapping will be used for user matching, before falling back to email and preferred_username respectively.

If a user is not found, a new user will be created with the attributes as mapped in the Settings > OpenID page.
