Title: Glome Author: _ferenc Published: June 22, 2015 Last modified: October 13, 2015 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/glome-basic/assets/banner-772x250.png?rev=1186642) This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/glome-basic_363636.svg) # Glome By [_ferenc](https://profiles.wordpress.org/_ferenc/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/glome-basic.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/glome-basic/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/glome-basic/#reviews) * [Installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/glome-basic/#installation) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/glome-basic/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/glome-basic/) ## Description This plugin integrates WordPress sites with Glome. Each visitor can get a “Soft Account” by a single click. Users can link soft accounts across multiple devices. A visitor with soft account can act as a registered user, in fact he or she will receive a regular, but anonymous WordPress account. There is no need for going through the standard registration process by filling in and submitting forms. The plugin consists of a few widgets, a user page and a settings page for WordPress administrators. Site admins can add the widgets to their WordPress widget area. With these widgets the site’s visitors will be able to create fully functional WordPress accounts as mentioned above. Two widgets will let these newly created anonymous, “soft accounts” to be linked with other anonymous accounts. The same WordPress site accessed by the same person on multiple devices can be personalised without ever asking for user names, email addresses or passwords. This will make the WordPress site stand out from the rest. ## Screenshots * [[ * The “One-Time Access” and the “Glome Key” widgets are available to gain access to the Wordpress site. * [[ * After gaining access one will be able to pair other devices. It can be done by scanning a QR code, or opening the corresponding URL. We also take advantage of modern browsers that can work with cameras directly (via WebRTC). ## Installation Download and unpack the plugin to the WordPress server’s plugin directory. Login to WordPress as an administrator. Find the installed Glome plugin in the Plugins menu and activate it. After activating the plugin please go to the Glome settings page under the Settings menu. Click the “Request API Credentials” button and wait until the page displays the acquired Glome API credentials. Once the API credentials are shown you are ready to add the widgets. ## FAQ #### Do you have a demo site? Yes, we do.
