描述
Having a single login for every service is a must in large organizations. This plugin allows you to integrate WordPress with LDAP quickly and easily. Like, really really easy.
Contributing
This is a community project now. Most development is done by users like you who find bugs and fix them, or find new ways to make the plugin more powerful for everyone.
The easiest way to contribute to this plugin is to submit a GitHub pull request. Here’s the repo:

Features
- Supports Active Directory and OpenLDAP (and other directory systems which comply to the LDAP standard, such as OpenDS)
- Supports TLS
- Uses up-to-date methods for WordPress authentication routines.
- Authenticates existing WordPress usernames against LDAP.
- Can be configured to automatically create WordPress users for valid LDAP logins.
- You can restrict logins based on one or more LDAP groups.
- Intuitive control panel.
Architecture
Simple LDAP Login adds an authentication filter to WordPress that authentication requests must pass. In doing so, it makes several decisions.
- Can the provided credentials be authenticated against LDAP?
-
- If so, is the LDAP user a member of the required LDAP groups (if any)?
-
-
- Does a matching WordPress user exist?
-
-
-
-
- If so, log the user in.
-
-
-
-
-
- If not, is user creation enabled?
-
-
-
-
-
-
- Create the user and log them in.
-
-
-
This is high level overview. This should answer the philosophical questions about how the plugin works. If the plugin is unable to authenticate the user, it should pass it down the chain to WordPress. (Unless LDAP Exclusive is turned on, in which case it won’t.)

安裝
- Use the WordPress plugin directory to install the plugin or upload the directory
simple-ldap-login
to the/wp-content/plugins/
directory. - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Update the settings to those that best match your environment by going to Settings -> Simple LDAP Login
- If you don’t get the settings right the first time, don’t fret! Just use your WordPress credentials. They should always work
- Once you have the settings correct, you can toggle LDAP Exclusive mode (if you like).
- To make your life easier, consider using two different browsers (e.g., Chrome and Firefox) to do testing. Change settings in one. Test in the other. This will prevent any chance of being locked out.
常見問題
-
Other than WordPress, what does my system require?
-
Your install of PHP must be configured/compiled with LDAP support.
-
How do I know what the correct settings are?
-
I have tried to make the settings as self-explanatory as possible. If you are struggling figuring them out, you may need to speak with your LDAP administrator. I realize this is an obnoxious response, but there is no good, fool proof way to help you discover these settings. A good place to start, if you’re feeling daring, might be to use ADSIEdit for Windows and Active Directory, or GQ for Linux and OpenLDAP.
-
It’s still not working, what other things can I try?
-
If you are confident your settings are correct and it still does not work, it may be time to check for port or firewall issues. If your LDAP server is running on a non-standard port or an obsolete version of the LDAP protocol you are going to have issues. Port 389 is the port this plugin, and nearly every other LDAP enabled software expects. They are also expecting protocol version 3. If you are using an old version of LDAP or running a non-standard port you may need to modify the code that the plugin runs or update your LDAP installation.
Unfortunately I can’t be relied upon to assist with these types of requests. I chose not to support these scenarios because they are infrequent and because they confuse everyone else.

It’s still not working! How can I get help?

The easiest way to get help is to post a comment on my blog: http://objectiv.co/simple-ldap-login/. I’ll do my best to get you up and running!

修改日誌
Version 1.6.0

- Lots of new features from various pull requests from contributing users. Most of these focus on new settings for edge cases, and some general improvements.
- If we did our jobs right, nothing will break. But if it does, rolling back to 1.5.5 is the best place to start.
Version 1.5.5
- Fix syntax error.
- Don’t sanitize user info.
Version 1.5.4
- Local admins will always fall back to local WP password.
- Fixes bug where new users do not have name or other information from LDAP directory
Version 1.5.3

- Fixed a few bugs in the user creation code.
- Fixed bug with storing default user role.
Version 1.5.1
- Fixed a bug where the domain controllers are passed as a string.
Version 1.5
- Complete rewritten from the ground up.
- It’s Object Oriented, DRY and Singleton.
- The options have been overhauled to make configuration much easier. Focuses on individual features rather than “modes” that encapsulate several behaviors.
- Admin pages now use WordPress admin styles and behaviors.
- Tested with Active Directory. I recommend OpenLDAP users test carefully before implementing in their production environments.
- Added global on off switch so you can easily disable LDAP authentication without deactivating.
Version 1.4.0.5.1
- I broke it. Sorry guys! 🙁
- Downgraded adLDAP as some referenced functions no longer exist.
Version 1.4.0.5
- Updated adLDAP to version 4.x

- As always TEST this first. Don’t assume it works…I don’t have a testing environment to ensure it will work correctly.
Version 1.4.0.4
- Fixes nickname bug accidentally put back in in last version. (My bad!)
Version 1.4.0.3
* Reverts bug introduced in 1.4.0.2
* If you installed 1.4.0.2 and use OpenLDAP, please update as soon as possible and verify users cannot login with incorrect passwords (and vice versa).
Version 1.4.0.2 – Patches submitted by Jonas Genannt and Ilya Kozlov
* Updates adLDAP to 3.3.2
* Fixes issue with users in recursive OUs not being found.
* Fixes issues with different Base DN formats.
* NOTE: Please be catious in updating. As I don’t have an OpenLDAP install, I am unable to independently confirm these fix the problems. If you have issues, revert to 1.4.0.1 and e-mail me: clifgriffin[at]gmail.com. Likewise, If you can confirm these changes are effective, also let me know. 🙂
Version 1.4.0.1
- Fix for e-mail exists issue with WP 3.0+ for LDAP installations that don’t populate the e-mail address attribute.

Version 1.4
- First update in about a year. Thanks for your patience.
- Completely rewritten to support changes in WordPress 2.8+. Now fully supports WordPress 3.0.

- Made some minor wording changes to the admin panel.
