User Authentication

Shibboleth

Shibboleth is being used to handle the NEU Single Sign On integration with the Active Directory. Upon authentication, the site assigns the appropriate member type and site based on the user's attributes. This happens in the Humanities Commons plugin.

Logic is in place to handle automatic group assignments as well, but that configuration has not been completed.

Shibboleth is the default authentication method on the commons, GSE, PHD, and gradstudent networks. To log in to these sites, visit [site_domain]/wp/wp-login.php

Social Login

The NExT network implements social login for Google and Twitter. Customizations for this are handled in the HC Custom plugin
