Configuring an individual PAS plugin

Description

In addition to enabling and disabling plugins via the plugins object each plugin can also have its own configuration. You can access this by opening a plugin in the ZMI.

Taking the credentials_cookie_auth as example again you will see the screen for the Activate tab. This tab is mandatory and allows you to enable and disable PAS interfaces for a plugin. This corresponds to the plugin configuration we saw earlier, but does not allow you to change the ordering of different plugins for an interface. If you enable a new interface for a particular plugin, it will be activated and placed last in the list of plugins for a particular interface.

You can also go to the properties tab to edit settings specific for this plugin:

What you can configure will differ per plugin. Some plugins do not have any configurations options, others can be very complex.
