    I currently use a wireguard vpn on the wordpress host and would get a (failed to connect to steamcommunity.com port 80 #number ms) I narrowed the vpn being the problem and found the solution

    you want to change ( just changing http to https) on line 80 in the file wp-steam-auth.php

                    $openid->identity = 'https://steamcommunity.com/openid';
    to 		$openid->identity = 'https://steamcommunity.com/openid';

    If your using this old plugin make sure to add code from the link below, dont copy paste directly from the post below as the quotes/characters are not regular quotes/characters

    I have linked a pastebin with the quotes/characters corrected and the vpn fix is at the bottom just in case wordpress changes characters
