So I finally got my OpenID plugin working. I've been running this site on the beta version of MODx Revolution for a while now. Revolution has a lot of great features including a comments component called Quip. Unfortunately one of the things that MODx Revolution still doesn't have is a sign-up form. And Quip requires a commenter to be logged in.
So I rolled up my sleeves and decided to write my own. I'd been wanting to dig a bit deeper into OpenID for a while so I decided this would be the perfect opportunity. You may have never heard of OpenID, however, there's a good chance you already have an OpenID whether you know it or not.
If you haven't tried it already, go ahead and give it a whirl and maybe leave a comment while you're at it. And be sure to let me know if you have any trouble. It's still a bit unrefined and probably has a few bugs that need to be ironed out.
P.S. I'm waiting for some of the Revolution packaging to get ironed out before I release it. But let me know if you'd like to get your hands on the code.
