## Description

Ultra minimal plugin to let your users login to WordPress applications using their
GitHub accounts. No more remembering hefty passwords!

### Initial Setup

 1. Create a project from [GitHub Developer Settings](https://github.com/settings/developers)
    if none exists.
 2. Go to **OAuth** tab, then create credential for OAuth client.
 3.  * Add `YOUR_WEBSITE_NAME` in **Application Name**
     * Add `YOUR_DOMAIN/HOME_URL` in **Homepage URL**
     * Add `YOUR_DOMAIN/wp-login.php` in **Authorized redirect URIs**
 4. This will give you **Client ID** and **Secret key**.
 5. Input these values either in `WP Admin > Settings > Login With GitHub`

### How to enable automatic user registration

You can enable user registration by
 – Enabling _Settings > Login With GitHub > 
Enable GitHub Login Registration_

**Note:** If the checkbox is ON then, it will register valid GitHub users even when
WordPress default setting, under

_Settings > General Settings > Membership > Anyone can register_ checkbox

is OFF.
