Take a look on the php saml toolkit dependences: https://github.com/onelogin/php-saml#dependences
At the admin interface, click on Extensions > Extension Manager. Unlike previous versions there is now a single pkg_onelogin_php-saml_joomla.zip to upload and install.
At the admin interface, click on Extensions > Plugin Manager. Search "Onelogin". Enable both plugins by clicking on the applicable boxes. Click on the name of the user plugin. At the "Description" tab you will find info describing the rest of the tabs. Once the settings are set, turn enable the plugin.
The metadata of the Joomla SP will be available at

The "SAML Login" link can be added in at least 2 different places:
- Add the link to the "Login Form module". At the admin interface, click on Extensions > Module Manager and search the word "Login", in the result you can find the active modules that currently are rendering a Login Form. Edit them and in the pre-text add the following:
<a href="http://<path to joomla>/plugins/user/oneloginsaml/oneloginsaml.php?sso">SAML Login</a>
- Add the link to the main login form (Component User, View login). At the admin interface, click on Extensions > Module Manager and edit the "Site" templates that are currently used. Click on "Create Overrides" and select at "Components" the "com_users" > "login". Later click on the editor and edit html > com_users > login > default_login.php. You will see the a mix of php and html, search the line around 78 and after the JLOGIN button set:
<a href="http://<path to joomla>/plugins/user/oneloginsaml/oneloginsaml.php?sso" style="padding-left:20px;">SAML Login</a>
When SAML enabled, you can always continue login through other login backends. Maybe we will disable the local login in future but will provide a way to rescue the system in case that something go wrong with SAML.
