What it does well
Where it falls short
WP Remote Users Sync offers a comprehensive solution for managing user accounts across several WordPress sites with strong security features. It is well-suited for those who require reliable user synchronisation without premium limitations.
Alexandre Froger's own description of WP Remote Users Sync, lightly tidied.
If you run multiple websites and want to keep users separated, but synchronise them automatically and securely for specific user operations, then WP Remote Users Sync is the plugin to use.
This plugin adds the following major features to WordPress:
Please read the plugin FAQ, there is a lot that may help you there!
WP Remote Users Sync is regularly updated for compatibility, and bug reports are welcome, preferably on Github. Pull Requests from developers following the WordPress Coding Standards (WordPress-Extra ruleset) are highly appreciated and will be credited upon merge.
In case the plugin has not been updated for a while, no panic: it simply means the compatibility flag has not been changed, and it very likely remains compatible with the latest version of WordPress. This is because it was designed with long-term compatibility in mind from the ground up.
Each bug report will be addressed in a timely manner if properly documented – previously unanswered general inquiries and issues reported on the WordPress forum may take significantly longer to receive a response (if any).
Only issues occurring with included plugin features mentioned in “Synchronise all user data”, core WordPress and default WordPress themes (incl. WooCommerce Storefront) will be considered.
Troubleshooting involving 3rd-party plugins or themes will not be addressed on the WordPress support forum.
Although WP Remote Users Sync works out of the box with most combinations of WordPress plugins and themes, there are some edge cases necessitating integration, with code included in the core files of WP Remote Users Sync executing under certain conditions.
Integrations added to core are limited to popular plugins and themes: any extra code specific to a handful of installations require a separate custom plugin not shared with the community (created and maintained by a third-party developer).
A typical example necessitating custom integration includes plugins or themes relying on their own custom tables, directly updating the database with SQL queries instead of using WordPress built-in functions, destroying sessions with low-level functions instead of using the built-in WordPress method, etc.
If such need for plugin integration arises, website administrators MUST contact a third-party developer. The plugin author currently does not have the bandwidth to take on custom work for WPRUS.
