    Hi,

    I am investigating the potential for creating the ability to sign on to WordPress, then add a widget in the dashboard probably with a link or button that the user could click to automatically sign in to another online application.

    This is how the process was described to me:

    it requires a simple form post of data to a predefined page/URL on our side. The post includes information that we will provide that identifies you, and a piece of data that you would need to provide that identifies the individual end user. The only tricky part I believe is the passing of an encrypted token that you would need to generate.

    One of the required fields is the UTC time in seconds and another is a token made up of an MD%Hash of several pieces of information.

    Does anyone have an idea if something like this is possible? Is there a stable plugin that would help? Would it require custom coding?
