Description

The WP Magic Link Login replaces the traditional WordPress password with a unique one-time-use link sent by email, eliminating the need for a user to remember credentials to access the site’s restricted area. Authentication happens when the visitor inputs their registered email, receives a signed token in their inbox, and completes the login with a single click, ideal for member portals, customer areas, and corporate environments sensitive to password leaks.
