Good morning,

 

Based on https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Authentication+Plugins#AuthenticationPlugins-StackableAuthenticationMethod(s) controlling the display order of the authentication plugins can be controlled by the order they are enabled in the authentication.cfg file.  However,  I cannot seem to get the password authentication to appear anywhere but first on the login page.  Since the password authentication is the default,  does it have to appear first?  Thanks.

I'm using OIDC first and it appears on top of password auth.

We’re hosted so I don’t know the technical details, but when we wanted to put our SSO sign in at the top and password option below, our hosting provider ran into the same problem.  If anyone comes up with a solution I’d love to know about it so we can pass it on to them….

All,

As of DSpace 7.6.1 (and 8.0), the order of authentication plugins (in your backend configuration) should define the order of authentication options that appear in your User Interface.  See this ticket for details: https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/2365    However, *prior to* DSpace 7.6.1, this did not work.  So, if you are on an earlier release, you should schedule an upgrade.
