confusion on setup comment about simpleshib HOT 3 CLOSED

disregard. it makes sense if the plugin is installed correctly.
I mistakenly uploaded the plugin directory to mu-plugins instead of the file, so the whole plugin was not being processed by wordpress.

Hi @tthorp,

Thanks for the ticket/feedback. That boolean is to disable all login functionality, both native WP and through Shib. The code first calls remove_all_filters('authenticate') in the construct, which removes everything related to authentication. Then, it adds authenticate_or_redirect() which becomes the only function for authentication in WordPress. That function checks if LoginsDisabled is true, and if so, just returns an error. It essentially prevents all logins from anywhere.

I initially used it as a debugging/testing type thing, but ended up keeping it in the settings just in case someone would need it. I can definitely clarify the wording in the comments though (I'll reopen this ticket until I can do that, so I won't forget). That should help any future confusion.

Thanks again for the feedback and let me know if you have any issues using the plugin!

Thanks,
Steve
