WP Loomio

MG Marco Giustini Public Seen by 107

I'm interested in funding the development of a Wordpress plugin for Loomio. The plugin will work both on the free and the paid version of Loomio, enabling directely from the plugin the upgrade to the paid version. Cause unfortunately you have not an API, may you address how a developper could work on the plugin?

Hi @marcogiustini. Sorry for the long delay in reply.

We have both an API and a plugin system.

Can you describe what the interaction between wordpress and Loomio might be?

@robertguthrie I can collect funds to develop the plugin I described. How could cost for you to develop it using API?

Hi Marco, you'll need to describe the plugin functionality, however I don't think we would be available directly to do the work.. however I think the first step of explaining the function is the right one to take, from there we may be able to find a developer to bring in.

Hi Robert, just a heads up - being able to integrate loomio into a wordpress site would be very useful for our Co-op. It would be ideal for a member to log in to our site, be able to hit the Loomio tab and be brought to a self-hosted co-branded version of Loomio.

We use CiviCRM as our CRM (with Wordpress plug-in)

This would be worth a one-off payment or subscription fee to us.

We would also likely participate in some sort of crowdfunding for this feature.

How would you feel about paying for a plugin that enables integrations for loomio, including chat, login, etc?

Can CiviCRM be an OAUTH2 server or SAML server?

Two organisations I work with would be interested in this functionality, and willing to pay for it (we pay for a host of wordpress plugins for different functionality).

I'm afraid I don't know the technical aspects of CiviCRM from a single sign on perspective. :(

@robertguthrie CiviCRM can be used also as Wordpress plugin. And Wordpress can be an OAUTH2 server using a plugin. https://it.wordpress.org/plugins/oauth2-provider/ @samtoland if the organizations you work with are still interested in funding an integration between Loomio and Wordpress, that's feasible through that plugin.
