Access Manager controls access to Knowledge Base content. However, Access Manager does not directly handle user login authentication or authorization outside of the Knowledge Base. Instead, it relies on WordPress’s built-in login authentication mechanisms, login redirection, and role/capability management.
Third-party plugins can enhance WordPress’s login authentication, redirection, and user role/capability management. Some notable plugins that offer features beyond Access Manager’s scope include:
Login Authentication and Redirection
LoginWP (formerly Peter’s Login Redirect) allows you to define redirect rules for specific users, roles, or capabilities, as well as a general rule for all other users. It also lets you set a redirect URL for post-registration.
OAuth Single Sign On
WordPress Single Sign-On, also known as WordPress SSO, enables users to log in to any website or application using a single set of credentials from another application or site.
Email / OTP / 2FA Verification
Some WordPress plugins offer user verification through one-time passwords, email verification, Google Authenticator, and other methods
User Role and Membership
WordPress offers various plugins for managing user roles and memberships outside of the Knowledge Base. Once set up, these roles and users can be mapped to KB roles and added to KB groups using our KB Groups and Custom Roles features.
