XF 2.3 How to connect WordPress & XenForo with oAuth?

With 2.3's oAuth, how do we connect WordPress and Xenforo together? I would think this is possible now without an $80 addon (which I cannot currently afford even half that).

If someone could provide a step-by-step guide on how to get this setup, I'm sure myself and possibly hundreds more people in the future, would be extremely helpful. Preferably using a free oAuth plugin on WordPress.

I want this as well but between two xenforo sites.

That is easy (assuming both are running XenForo 2.3):
  1. Add an OAuth client at yourmastersite.com
    https://yourmastersite.com/admin.php?oauth2/clients/add

    Set
    Client Type = Confidential
    Redirect URI = https://yourclientsite.com/connected_account.php
    Allowed Scopes = user:read

  2. Add a XenForo Connected account provider at yourclientsite.com
    https://yourclientsite.com/admin.php?connected-accounts/xenforo/edit
    Fill in the board URL https://yourmastersite.com, the generated client key and secret
Done.

I'll give this a shot. Many thanks!
 
Any alternative options? Since those two addons I tried were not working. One was completely broken, and the other is like $350 for a license. Way out of my budget.
