    Hi,

    It is said in the FAQ page that this plugin “must be activated network-wide for security reasons.”

    Could someone explain a bit more these security reasons and what could happen if we activated the plugin in only some subsites of a WP network ?

    thanks in advance

    Thank you for your question. Please note we are better able to offer support by email: [email protected].

    Anyway, here are some thoughts about multisite and security:

    First of all, please note that the plugin is configured so that it can only be activated in Network mode – i.e. it cannot be activated on individual sub-sites in WordPress, so you would not be able to try that out.

    The security reasons are essentially that if you can use Google to login to one sub-site, you may also be able to login to the other sub-sites via Google.

    That may not matter, depending on who your users are, and the privileges they are allowed on other sub-sites, but in general we decided it was safest to ensure multisite was “all-or-nothing” in the free version of Google Apps Login.

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Dan

    Thanks a lot for this clarification.

    I would post my own post but not sure how to tag your plugin.

    I am trying to work with a multi-domain network. I am trying to get the plugin to login to either of my four sites but it is only allowing me to allow access to one login plugin for one site instead of all four like I want.

    Is there any way around this? Thanks!

    Hi there!

    The WordPress support forum can be cumbersome, so email support is usually best. Please email [email protected].

    We have some notes on multisite networks in our FAQ here:
    https://wp-glogin.com/faqs/does-the-plugin-work-on-multisite-wordpress/

    But feel free to let me know more about your setup via email and I can help advise.

    Thanks,

    Dan
