Your personal site must be set up for web sign-in.
- Link from your personal site to your other profiles. Add
rel="me"to those hyperlinks. E.g.:<a rel="me" href="http://twitter.com/your_twitter_alias">... - Edit your other profiles, e.g. your Twitter profile settings, and set the "Web" ("homepage", "Website/Blog") field to your personal site. E.g.
Web http://yoursite.example.com/
- When you use your personal site with web sign-in the first time, your browser will redirect you to to your online profile, e.g. Twitter, and ask you to:
- Sign-in with your account on that profile (e.g. sign in to Twitter) if you're not already signed-in.
- Authorize the site to use your account, e.g. your Twitter account:
Click the ( Sign In ) button and you should be all set.Authorize Site to use your account?
