### About this Plugin

Use your existing LDAP as authentication-backend for your wordpress!

### Static WordPress Challenge

This plugin depends on live, request-time WordPress/PHP functionality such as sessions, authenticated visitors, or dynamic endpoints. Its core visitor-facing features do not work on a static WordPress site. Neither Simply Static Pro nor Static Studio changes that compatibility verdict. Use a separate hosted, headless, or external service if the plugin's use case offers one.

### Frequently Asked Questions

Is authLdap compatible with Simply Static?

No. authLdap requires live, request-time WordPress functionality and cannot operate as a static site. Simply Static Pro and Static Studio do not change that compatibility verdict.

Can a paid Simply Static product make authLdap compatible?

No. Neither Simply Static Pro nor Static Studio can turn authLdap's session-based or request-time PHP functionality into a static-site feature. A separate headless or external service would be a different implementation.

Does authLdap affect static build times?

authLdap has approximately 4,000 active installs. Plugins with complex shortcodes or dynamic blocks may add minor overhead to the static generation pass.
