Moving WP internal user to authenticate via NADI

    Our WP installation has some internal (WordPress DB based) users prior to installation of NADI.

    New users are synced by NADI directly from our Active Directory environment – but the existing users (prior to NADI installation) are left alone to be authenticated via WP DB, even though they exist in AD with matching usernames.

    Is there any way to force NADI to start authenticating these DB-based users via AD?

    Thank you.

    Please note that the username (e.g. “microscopicearthling”) in WordPress is *not* sufficient for synchronizing users. You need to append your domain’s UPN suffix by using the User > Account Suffix parameter. With the parameter set, on login the UPN suffix is automatically appended (“microscopicearthling” becomes “[email protected]”). With the full UPN NADI lookup the username inside the Active Directory.
    Please also note that for security reasons your first WordPress user will never be authenticated against the AD and so won’t be synchronized during the login process.
