How to enable OpenID for existing users?

(1/5) > >>

ibookdb:
Is there a way for an existing user to change from password based authentication to OpenID?

metallica48423:
have you tried messing with the openid_uri in the members table to see if it'd allow the open ID login?

ibookdb:
I did, it does allow openid but I really don't want to manually enter stuff in there. If you already register using OpenID, you can change to password based authentication from your profile settings. But the reverse is not possible. I don't wan't to go about doing customizations if they will be made in the future in SMF itself.

Owdy:
This should be in user profile settings.

edit: i added my openid uri to my profile, it wont work. It wants me to register.

edit2: okay, fixed. Missed http:// part.

Yeah, i see that now. Why isnt that reverse? I could use openid in many SMF sites (like in here) in future, but i dont wanna create new account in every site.
