    I’ve never used that plugin, but in quickly glancing at the source, it doesnt appear that the plugin stores any user meta information to distinguish between a local user account and an AD-authenticated account. How many users do you have? And do you know which ones should be ad-authenticated vs locally-authenticated?

    167 network users, all but one are LDAP. From the WordPress admin I can switch user accounts from LDAP to local, although I’ve never looked in the database to see what flags or fields that might change.

    well, for wpDirAuth to auth a user, the user needs a meta_key of wpDirAuthFlag and a meta_value of 1 in their meta data, and for their user name to match whatever Account Filter you’ve set inthe wpDirAuth settings (default is samAccountName). If the other ldap plugin has a similar type of flag in the user meta, you could run a query on the database changing that plugins meta_key and value to wpDirAuth’s.

    That makes sense, thanks for the info.
