## Description

Frontegg SAML SSO replaces the default WordPress login and logout experiences with
seamless SAML authentication via [Frontegg](https://frontegg.com).

This plugin is designed for modern SaaS and enterprise WordPress environments where
you need to enforce login via an external identity provider (IdP).

It includes:
 – 🔐 Secure SAML 2.0 login and logout – 📋 Admin-friendly configuration
of SSO URLs and certificate – 📎 Auto-generated SP (Service Provider) values (Entity
ID, ACS URL, SLO URL) – 🧭 Redirect control after logout – 🔄 Auto-redirects from`
wp-login.php` to Frontegg – ✨ Clean and accessible admin UI using native WordPress
components

 3. Go to **Frontegg SAML SSO** in the admin menu
 4. Follow the 4-step configuration:
 5.  * **Step 1:** Create a SAML Application in your Frontegg Dashboard
     * **Step 2:** Copy SP values (Entity ID, ACS URL, Logout URL) into Frontegg

## FAQ

### Can I still use wp-login.php to log in?

No. This plugin fully replaces the WordPress login screen with Frontegg’s SSO flow.

### What happens if a user does not already exist in WordPress?

The plugin auto-creates a new user using the email address from the SAML assertion.

### Where do I find my Frontegg SSO URL and certificate?

In your Frontegg Dashboard under the SAML application settings.

### What should I use as my SAML ACS URL and Entity ID?

After activation, visit the plugin settings page to view copy-paste ready values.
= Will this replace the default login screen? =
 Yes. When configured, users will
be redirected to Frontegg’s login instead of wp-login.php.

### Does it support user creation?

Yes. If a user logs in from Frontegg and does not exist in WordPress, a new account
will be automatically created.

### Can I configure a post-logout redirect?

Yes. You can define a URL to redirect users to after successful logout from Frontegg.

### Is nonce verification used?

Yes, for all admin operations. SAML POST responses (from the IdP) do not include
nonce — those routes are documented as exceptions.
