+===================
+ 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 :ref:`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
+============================
+

+
+2. Add the following to your MediaGoblin .ini file in the ``[plugins]`` section::
+
+    [[mediagoblin.plugins.openid]]

+   in order to create and apply migrations to any database tables that the
