CAS V4?

  • Hoping to implement this on the blog network for the community college I work for. It’s working in test, but when a user without an account logs in using CAS, and the plugin creates the user account, there is no name. Only the user ID.

    My server guys tell me we are using CAS v4.0.1. I tried tying into our old LDAP to get names, but that didn’t work either.

    Any chance CAS attributes are being added anytime soon so we can just get the first name, last name and email from the CAS response?

    Thanks for the great plugin.

  • If you just need CAS attributes, you could try my custom version of the plugin from https://github.com/reswild/cas-maestro.

    Thanks, @reswild. Now, if I could just figure out a way to bypass the plugin on the login page so certain users could login without going through CAS, I would be set.

    To bypass login through CAS, just add “?wp” after the login link.
    So “wp-admin?wp” or “wp-login.php?wp”.

    Thanks. I didn’t remember that this was the plugin that had that option. I’ll have to see if I can make that work.

    FYI, when I first enabled the plugin, I received some errors. Specifically, the default settings array values don’t seem to translate later on in cas-maestro.php. Once you get in and set the values for the plugin it works fine, but, for whatever reason, things like $this->settings[‘phpcas_path’] don’t work initially.

    Yeah, I’ll need to have another look at the initial setup. I think what is supposed to happen is that the plugin shouldn’t be active until you edit the settings page for the first time, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

    Thanks for reminding me about that.
