Hi,

I'm trying to use the EXT:openid to ease some user administration :)

Unfortunately, I'm having no luck, in getting OpenID authentication to
work. Here is what I've done so far

1. Installing extension openid
2. Accepting the database changes that the extension would like to make
3. Creating backenduser on my local installation
3.1. Entering a username ex. "username". "username" is also my
identificator in my openid url
3.2. Entering a OpenID Identification URL, in this case
http://username.wordpress.com/
3.3. Ignoring the "password" field
3.4. Don't know if interestingm but checked the box "Admin?"
3.5. Saves and closes backend user editing
4. Open my backend login in a completely different browser and click
the "Switch to OpenID" link
5. Starts by entering my username ("username") and hitthe "login" button
6. Gets standard error message in return:

Your login attempt did not succeed
Make sure to spell your username and password correctly, including
upper/lowercase characters.

7. Tries with the url that I've entered in the "URL identificator" field
8. Same return as in 6.

My steps are the once that I seem to get from the manual.

I'm using Wordpress.com as my openid provider.

Any help will be appreciated :)
