 * We are new users of the Miniorange SAML 2.0 plugin. We are experiencing an issue
   with our SAML login, in which mini orange is attempting to create a new user 
   account for each subsequent login.
    We are receiving the following error.
 * “Registration has failed as a user with the same username already exists in WordPress.
   Please ask your administrator to create an account for you with a unique username.”
 * Please advise.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsaml-plugin-user-registration-error%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I am getting the same error with SAML 2.0 version 15.1.1. Google searching the
   error on the page brought me to here. Thank you for your assistance.

 * #1 We are also getting same error message with SAML 2.0 version 15.1.1. (“Registration
   has failed as a user with the same username already exists in WordPress. Please
   ask your administrator to create an account for you with a unique username.”)
 * #2 Further more after some users login a cryptic code is generated under users.
   For example: MQ6VmAuWsi6plis4XQo-SGbjoHRSM6Z0HbGerMG5D38. This is happening randomly
   and pretty sure is related to issue #1.
