Manual Plugin Installation
There are a few cases when manually installing a WordPress Plugin is appropriate.
- If you wish to control the placement and the process of installing a WordPress Plugin.
- If your server does not permit automatic installation of a WordPress Plugin.
- If you want to try the latest development version.
Installation of a WordPress Plugin manually requires FTP familiarity and the awareness that you may put your site at risk if you install a WordPress Plugin incompatible with the current version or from an unreliable source.
Backup your site completely before proceeding.
To install a WordPress Plugin manually:
- Download your WordPress Plugin to your desktop.
- Download from the WordPress directory
- Download from GitHub
- If downloaded as a zip archive, extract the Plugin folder to your desktop.
- With your FTP program, upload the Plugin folder to the
wp-content/plugins
folder in your WordPress directory online. - Go to Plugins screen and find the newly uploaded Plugin in the list.
- Click Activate to activate it.
Configuration of users
Note: The (current) 1.0.* version only works with already registered WordPress users (who indicated their ID4me identifier
in the ID4me identifier profile field). Next versions will include a more complex user management.
To configure users to log in with ID4me:
- Go to the user’s Profile Page.
- Save your ID4me identifier in the ‘Website’ parameter.
- Click Update Profile.
This identifier parameter can be updated anytime; the ID4me process will follow on the changes.
FAQ
-
Is an ID4me Identity free?
-
Most providers of ID4me Identities supply them free of charge on top of their managed domains.
-
What must I consider to install the Plugin to also let my site visitors log-in using ID4me?
-
The Plugin works the same way for you, your users or to the visitors of your website. Everyone with an access to his own Profile page may then configure the ID4me identifier for himself. Current version of the Plugin does not yet support Sign-Up for new users though. This functionality including import of the needed data will come with one of the coming releases.
-
Can I still use my original WordPress Login Credentials?
-
Yes. ID4me is an alternative Login method, not a full-replacement.
-
Is the ID4me Login compatible with Two-Factor Authentication plug-ins?
-
The Plugin does not interfere with Two-Factor Authentication Plugin you may have installed to protect your regular WordPress login. Please note however, that 2nd Factor set up in the WordPress instance is not verified if Single-Sign On with ID4me is being used. Most of ID-Authorities offer however a possibility to set up 2nd Factor to protect the Identity on this level.
