OpenID is a decentralized authentication mechanism that allows you to have one login that you can use on a growing number of websites.

To sign up for an OpenID, visit one of the following identity providers:

Your OpenID is the URL that you are given when you sign up. [[if test="enabled(openid)" then=""" To sign in to this wiki using OpenID, just enter it in the OpenID field in the signin form. You do not need to give this wiki a password or go through any registration process when using OpenID. """]]


It's also possible to make a page in the wiki usable as an OpenID url, by delegating it to an openid server. Here's an example of how to do that:

\\[[meta openid="http://yourid.myopenid.com/"
server="http://www.myopenid.com/server"]]
