    Hi Andreas,

    Thanks for your help clearing that up ! It is still not working but i need to have a look in greater detail in conjunction with the documentation and start a new post if needed.

    Thanks once again

    Hi Heiglandreas,

    I may have misunderstood but was your reply perhaps pertaining to the uid= in the Filter section ? My question was regarding the LDAP URI field that is higher up in the “General Server Settings” section.

    The example given is: ldap://uid=adminuser,dc=example,c=com:secret@ldap.example.com dc=basePath,dc=example,c=com

    I thought that the AuthLDAP plugin would simply take the username and password that the wordpress user had entered at the wp-admin login prompt and see if the same credentials successfully authenticated via the LDAP directory.

    So i still can’t see what i should replace the “adminuser” with in the example given above. Surely the user being authenticated should dynamically depend on the username entered in the wordpress login box ?

    Many Thanks

    David

    Hi Heiglandreas,

    Many thanks for the swift response ! Right, well as we don’t use Email-Address based WordPress accounts i guess i am still wondering what, in our case, should directly follow uid= in the LDAP URI field within the General Server Settings section.

    Many Thanks Again

    David
