    This isn’t exactly about the plugin itself.

    We have a WP network setup and if I enable the plugin for the whole network it activates on the root site as well. Which is what we want.
    The problem is, that the Network Admin user is a WP internal user. The only way to log in as tha admin user is through the WP native login. To do that, the simpleSAMLphp Authentication plugin has to be disabled.

    My question is this: Can a user authenticated through the simpleSAMLphp Authentication plugin be set as a Network Admin?

    Regards.

    Go to the Network Admin dashboard and click on Users.
    Clicking on a username will open the profile page for that user.
    Check the box for Super Admin (Grant this user super admin privileges for the Network.).
    Save the changes.
    The user can now log in via the simpleSAMLphp Authentication plugin and he/she will be granted Super Admin privileges.
