+===================
+ Openid plugin
+===================
+
+The Openid plugin allows user to login to your GNU Mediagoblin instance using
+their openid url.
+
+This plugin can be enabled alongside :ref:`basic_auth-chapter` and
+:ref:`persona-chapter`.
+
+.. note::
+ When :reg:`basic_auth-chapter` is enabled alongside this Openid plugin, and
+ a user creates an account using their Openid. If they would like to add a
+ password to their account, they can use the forgot password feature to do
+ so.
+
+
+Set up the Openid plugin
+============================
+
+1. Install the ``python-openid`` package.
+
+2. Add the following to your MediaGoblin .ini file in the ``[plugins]`` section::
+
+ [[mediagoblin.plugins.openid]]
+
+3. Run::
+
+ gmg dbupdate
