Overview

The WP SAML Auth plugin provides seamless SAML authentication for WordPress by utilizing the OneLogin SAML library or SimpleSAMLphp. It acts as a bridge connecting WordPress with the chosen authentication library, making integration with services like Google Apps straightforward. Users can log in via a dedicated SAML button on the WordPress login page, redirecting them to the appropriate identity provider for authentication before being signed into their WordPress account. This plugin supports configurable options to alter its default behavior, such as forcing all logins through the SAML provider or disabling automatic user creation. Additionally, it includes WP-CLI commands for easy configuration and management, enhancing its flexibility and utility for administrators.

User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate this WordPress plugin for its effectiveness in integrating with various identity providers like Azure AD, Microsoft 365, and GSuite. The setup process is generally found to be straightforward and user-friendly, unlike other SSO plugins that can be complicated or require payment for basic functionalities. However, there are some drawbacks including missing library files, lack of instructions for configuration with specific services like Okta, and the inability to define the default role or disable logging out from the ID provider easily. Despite these issues, users find that the plugin excels in simplicity and functionality where others fall short.

Works great with Azure AD / Microsoft 365. Would be even better if the default role could be defined on the settings page. Could be useful having the option to disable logging out from the ID provider.

Right after installing and activating the plugin, I keep getting warning messages such as some library files are missing and the WP SAML Auth is not active. Also, the lack of any instructions makes it impossible to configure it with my Okta account. Just a waste of time! Deactivating and trying out other SAML plugins.
