FAQFrequently Asked Questions
What does RPX stand for?Relying Party Accelerator. From the OpenID 2.0 specification, a Relying Party is:
Which browsers does RPX support?
Where can I promote my newly RPX-enabled website?Submit it to these services:
Why do OpenID Providers ask my users to signin to mysite.rpxnow.com?RPX gives you an OpenID realm as a subdomain of rpxnow.com. This is so we can run everything under SSL, even for free customers. See Realms and Trust Roots for a detailed explanation of OpenID realms and how the interact with the RPX service.
Why put the RPX javascript at the bottom of the page?We recommend that you put the javascript at the bottom of the page because it will help the page load faster. Modern browsers block the page inline while loading javascript, so putting it at the bottom of the page will reduce the page load time.
What does the "Invalid Token URL" error mean?You have probably forgotten to include or properly URL-escape the token_url parameter when adding the RPX sign-in interface to your login page(s). Please follow the instructions in "Quick Start Guide" for your site. You can find the link to the guide in the left hand navigation of the RPX website after you have signed in.
Can I use a single RPX application for authentication on more than one domain?Yes. You must add each domain manually to the token url domains list on your settings page. RPX will only authenticate to the list of token URL domains you have provided. How do I pass state through RPX?Add your state as query paramters onto the token_url. Here's a guide.
What are all the possible values for the providerName field? As of June 4, 2009, the enumeration can return the following values. If the user authenticates with a service not in this list, 'other' is returned. 2idi 4H AOL Blogger certifi.ca chi.mp ClaimID ClickPass GetOpenID Hyves Identity.net linksafe LiveJournal mijnopenid.nl myid.net MyLid MyOpenID MySpace openid.lt Orange person.lt SignOn.com StartSSL Sxipper Technorati TypeKey TypePad VeriSign PIP Vidoop Vox WikiTravel Windows Live WordPress.com Yahoo!

Is Hyves also available? I saw it on a screenshot I think, but it's not in the list.

string token = Request.QueryString["token"];//token={a big identifier string};
//Create a web-request that will be used to post the token and the special API key provided
//to you by RPXNow, to get more information about the authentication.
WebRequest rpxRequest = WebRequest.Create(";https://rpxnow.com/api/v2/auth_info");

In my country, there is a major OpenID provider who probably has over 50% local identity provider market share. The problem is nobody knows the IDs are actually OpenIDs. Is there any chance you would add another providerName? This could win you some customers in the Czech Republic. The site is http://seznam.cz.

Can we migrate from RPX Plus to RPX Pro with 'Custom OpenId Realm' ?
RPX Plus ==> RPX Pro
Realm Id: example.rpxnow.com ==> signin.example.org
Will I lose all linked account during this migration ?
