If you're using the OpenID Comments or OpenID Server plugins for Movable Type, I'm keeping a list of known issues in these plugins here. I hope to find the time to squash most of these and release new versions later this week.

Hi Mark —
I’m not sure if this is really an issue with the OpenID plugin, ecto, or something I’ve done, but since I installed the plugin, ecto’s not able to complete sending a post to my MT installation. All the information gets sent, but rather than completing the process and triggering the final rebuild, ecto returns the following error:
After that happens I can go into the MT interface and trigger a rebuild on the most recent entry and everything’s fine, but it has more or less rendered ecto useless.
Hopefully it’s just something I’ve munged up somewhere…? Thanks!

Happily that’s an issue that I’ve already fixed for version 1.3! As soon as I can fix the anonymous commenting issue, I’ll be publishing that.

The special display of LiveJournal users’ OpenIDs did not occur…
Are you also going to support the alternate http://www.livejournal.com/~username/ ?
The input field and button in the thunk tag HTML were not sufficiently addressable by CSS descriptors…
I’d love it if the label text were individually addressable too — as a span, maybe? Right now the link tag is the only thing wrapping it, and it includes the edit field as well.

I’m sorry about the duplicate post — I thought the first one didn’t go through because when I tried to post it I got an error page that said “You must define a comment pending template.” Just thought you’d want to know. :)

Sure, those sound good! I may just make the
labelnot include theinputso you can style it that way…Oops, yeah, I didn’t have moderation enabled but now that I have SpamLookup, it’ll moderate sometimes. I should fix that!

I feel kinda stupid for asking, but assuming I’m using the default templates with moveable type 3.2, what would be the exact line where I would put the tag? I followed the instructions on your site, but haven’t had any luck.
At the most I can get to a point where it says I’m signed in, but when I go to post it just shows up as anonymous.

Signed-in commenters posting anonymous comments is a known issue with MySQL and Postgres MT installs and users with long OpenID URLs. It’ll be fixed in version 1.3 of the plugin, a beta version of which I should be posting in a few hours.

Not sure if this is the best place, but I was thinking about possible features and I’d love to be able to set a list of urls/sites that are ‘trusted’. For instance only allow openID to function with *.livejournal.com and *.typekey.com. Those are really the only two sites I am comfortable with trusting at this point in time. Or would this be an easy tweak to make on my own?
comment
That would take some changes to the plugin at least, so I wouldn’t say it’s an easy tweak. I could add it later though.
If you do want to look at doing it, note that you should look at the
ClaimedIdentity’sidentity_server, not the domain of the identity. I could sign in ashttp://markpasc.org/me/with my TypeKey account, thanks to delegation.
