<div class="">Hello all,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We currently use LDAP for authentication to our WordPress multi-site installation, and user accounts are created when the user first logs in. However, we often need to be able to add users to a site before they’ve logged in. We have been doing
this via a separate custom portal that creates the user accounts “as needed”, but we’re trying to retire that tool and break that dependency. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">Does anyone do any sort of account synchronization with a directory (LDAP or AD)? If not, how do/would you handle granting users access before they’ve logged in? </div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Thanks,</div>
