SSO between 2 WP sites using miniorange?
I am planning to develop a community site (fluentcommunity) that also needs a multi-directory plugin. I am looking at hivepress or directorist. Question: Can I have fluentcommunity (with a landing page) on one wp install and domain, and have the directory on another domain and wp install. Then connect the two with SSO using something like miniorange?
Or can I install both on one wp install and integrate the two? Any solution is welcome!!
Stay far, far away from MiniOrange. They not only obfuscate their code [1]. When a 9.8 CVSS vulnerability got discovered in two of their plugins, they closed the projects and left the vulnerabilities unresolved [2].

Karl Emil NikkaΒ thanks, I had no idea; I had considered them too
Ouch! Thanks for the info!!!! Will avoid!
There are a few plugins out there that can help with JWT, and one of them is JWT Authentication for WP REST API
I'll use WP Remote Users Sync
I suggest to avoid miniorange. They stand for security and make security plugins, but on a customization they managed to make such mistakes so my sites got infected with viruses and bots just because of their mistakes.
Have you seen this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNT7eSEZh3I
Jaime SantiagoΒ it's the same plugin I would use β€οΈ
Linda RandoΒ Nice. I've been meaning to use it in another use case I got
Jaime SantiagoΒ Thanks Jamie! This means that I will host fluent community on one install and one domain and directorist on another install and another domain, and use this solution to synch users between the two?? Thanks for your advice!
Goutham MenonΒ correct. Happy to help
Jaime SantiagoΒ There seems to be an update to this from flowmatic... https://techarticles.co.uk/flowmattic-sync-users-between-sites/
Goutham MenonΒ That looks over my paygrade. I can safely report I've been using the method from the video I posted above for about a month now and works excellent.
Goutham MenonΒ hey, why did you manage to separate the community from the directory? Why not merge them?
Mainly because there is no integration between fc and directorist to have same user access.
