Question

Because of this feature (QA_FINAL_EXTERNAL_USERS), program (included plugins / themes) has become very complex. I think single sign-on is good. However, I think program logic (approach) is wrong fundamentally. By searching the core source with "QA_FINAL_EXTERNAL_USERS", you will be able to understand this issue.

Answer 1

All of program source codes related to external user feature had been removed.

Removed global variables:

1. QA_EXTERNAL_USERS
2. QA_FINAL_EXTERNAL_USERS
3. QA_WORDPRESS_INTEGRATE_PATH
4. QA_FINAL_WORDPRESS_INTEGRATE_PATH
5. QA_WORDPRESS_LOAD_FILE

This is a big change that spans all of core code and some plugins. This change has been applied to this site. Since I have changed a lot of program, there may be a bug. If you have found a strange place, please report it.

In this change, plugins and themes do not need to worry about the integration with WordPress and other system. Add-on development in PowerQA will be more easy.

Thanks.

Answer 2

I will remake this feature with REST API for WordPress as independent plugin. It will be similar to the Facebook login plugin.
