Single Sign-On component for Mercator.
Allows you to share cookies between all sites on the same subdomain.
Mercator requires WordPress 3.9 or newer for the new sunrise processes. Mercator also requires PHP 5.3+ due to the use of namespaced code.
Include the file sso.php
from your sunrise.php
in the same way you include Mercator itself.
For example:
<?php
// Default mu-plugins directory if you haven't set it
defined( 'WPMU_PLUGIN_DIR' ) or define( 'WPMU_PLUGIN_DIR', WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/mu-plugins' );
require WPMU_PLUGIN_DIR . '/mercator-sso/sso.php';
require WPMU_PLUGIN_DIR . '/mercator-sso/sso-multinetwork.php';
require WPMU_PLUGIN_DIR . '/mercator/mercator.php';
Optionally you can use sso-multinetwork.php
as well if you're running
a multinetwork site.
You can modify SSO behaviour for example in a local environment with the
following filters in sunrise.php
:
mercator.sso.enabled
// Disable SSO
add_filter( 'mercator.sso.enabled', '__return_false' );
mercator.sso.multinetwork.enabled
// Disable Multinetwork SSO
add_filter( 'mercator.sso.multinetwork.enabled', '__return_false' );

Created by Human Made for high volume and large-scale sites, such as Happytables. We run Mercator SSO on sites with millions of monthly page views, and thousands of sites.
Written and maintained by Ryan McCue. Thanks to all our contributors.
Mercator builds on concepts from WPMU Domain Mapping, written by Donncha O'Caoimh, Ron Rennick, and contributors.
Mercator relies on WordPress core, building on core functionality added in WP27003. Thanks to all involved in the overhaul, including Andrew Nacin and Jeremy Felt.
