الأسئلة المتكررّة
-
How does this plugin work?
-
The plugin intercepts login requests with a special action parameter and JWT token. It validates the JWT signature using public keys from a JWKS endpoint, extracts user information from the token claims, and creates or updates the WordPress user accordingly.
-
What JWT algorithm does this plugin support?
-
This plugin supports RS256 (RSA with SHA-256) JWT signatures only. This provides strong security through public key cryptography.
-
Can I use this with any SSO provider?
-
The plugin is designed to work with any SSO provider that can issue RS256 JWTs and provide a JWKS endpoint. You’ll need to configure your SSO provider to issue tokens with the correct audience and claims.
-
How do I configure the allowed issuers?
-
The plugin automatically configures allowed issuers based on the WordPress environment. In production,
https://sso.twelvelegsmarketing.comandhttps://wpsso.twelvelegsmarketing.comare allowed. In development/staging,https://localhost:8443is also allowed. -
What happens if a user doesn’t exist?
-
The plugin will automatically create a new WordPress user with the information from the JWT claims. The username is generated from the email address, and a random password is assigned.
-
How are user roles assigned?
-
User roles can be assigned in two ways:
1. Through thewp_roleclaim in the JWT token
2. Using the WordPress default role if no role is specified in the token -
Is this plugin secure?
-
Yes, the plugin implements multiple security layers including JWT signature verification, referrer validation, issuer validation, audience validation, and token expiration checking.
