1 ### "meta openid" problems
3 I have add the followning to _index.mdwn_ on my site.
5 \[[!meta openid="http://certifi.ca/lunix"
6 server="http://certifi.ca/_serve"]]
8 This resulted in the following being added to my site
10 <link href="http://certifi.ca/_serve" rel="openid.server" />
11 <link href="http://certifi.ca/_serve" rel="openid2.provider" />
12 <link href="http://certifi.ca/lunix" rel="openid.delegate" />
13 <link href="http://certifi.ca/lunix" rel="openid2.local_id" /> -->
15 Perhaps I have done something wrong but this fails to work when I try to log in to several sites using my sites url as my login.
16 If I edit index.html and remove the two openid2 lines all works fine.
17 **Is there a way to only add openid version 1 tags to my index.html ?
18 Or a way to make it work the way it is ?**

37 I was using _phpMyID_ and its not _openid2_ compliant so I switched to certifi.ca to counteract that but I really
38 want to go back to running my own provider.
39 I can't login to identi.ca.unless I comment out the openid2 lines.(this may be there problem, I get sent to certifi.ca's site and redirected back to identi.ca)
40 I will test all the different openid enabled sites I log into today and see what happens.
41 It seems that since I have moved my site to its final location and made it live over night I am able to login to most places now.
42 I do not have a proper understanding of the inner workings of openid so not exactly sure what part is failing but I think the problem
43 lays with the consumers not falling back to the openid1 tags when they are openid1 only consumers. --[Mick](http://www.lunix.com.au)
