Now I just needed to edit my Octopress site to provide the delegate information. This sparked a vague memory, and reminded me that when I first started tinkering with OpenID, I used a different site for the authentication, so a quick check, and I was able to login there. Because of this, Darrin was able to use what is called a deligate, and tell anybody making a request to look elsewhere to authenticate. Darrin had left his WordPress site active over on, but had migrated to his URL else where. I tried to think of a way around this, and did some quick searching, and stumbled upon a post by Darrin Mison, on the exact same topic. I’d killed my OpenID account by killing off my WordPress site. This is where I did a little face-meets-desk action. I decided to answer the question over there, and remembered I had signed up for an account using OpenID, so I dutifully typed in my site URL, and was stumped because I wasn’t redirected. That was until yesterday when somebody on the #Nagios IRC channel had asked a question, and then posted the same question to stackoverflow. This was great, and I’d completely forgotten about it because I rarely used it. I had used one of the few OpenID plugins that tied into WordPress, and allowed you to use WordPress as an OpenID provider, giving me the ability to login to sites using my WordPress site. One of the things I had completely forgotten about during my migration from WordPress to Octopress was OpenID.
