    Same Issue with me. please send me updated version..
    Thanks

    However I found a major bug,
    wherein the plugin could authenticate newly created wordpress users. But it couldn’t authenticate users that were old/previously created.

    P.S: The email/username and password combination also was correct.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    you can’t send ‘&’ or ‘#’ characters in url. either send the info via POST method or change your password. Both of the these characters are use in url query for different purpose.
