Auth user from Laravel to Wordpress Database

Question

I have a existing site in wordpress. User register only by web (wordpress). How to authenticate user from Laravel to the wordpress DB.

Answer 1

There are a lot of ways to do this. You could:

• Use a custom authentication driver on your Laravel app to use WordPress database. Hampel's package does this.
• Use a custom authentication provider to authenticate WordPress users. Laravel WP User package can do this, and it also support REST API.
• Override Laravel's hashing to make WordPress compatible password hashes using Laravel WP Password package. You can read more about this here.
• Replace WordPress's built-in authentication.
• Use Auth0.

There are probably still more ways to do this.
