Create secure self-expiring login links for temporary access and guest users, and enable passwordless login for registered ones.

Denis Alemán

<p>Login Links allows you to create temporary, password-less access links for existing users or guest accounts. The links can be configured to expire either after a certain period of time or after a set number of successful logins.</p>
<h3>How Login Link Works</h3>
<p>A login link is a special link that, when clicked, automatically logs the user in. They don’t need an account. The login occurs either under an existing account or under a temporary account created specifically for this link. The link has an expiration date, after which it is automatically deleted.</p>
<h3>Provide Temporary Access</h3>
<p>Create a login link with a specific role for support teams, clients, developers, or guest users who need temporary access to the site, and email it directly to them. They don’t need to create an account or come up with a password, and you won’t have to worry about deleting their account later.</p>
<h3>Passwordless Access for Users</h3>
<p>Allow already registered users to log in without a password. Users request a one-time login link by entering the email they used during registration, and the link is sent to that email.</p>

Login Links – Passwordless Login, Temporary Access Links & Custom Login Form


i tried two other plugins and they were limited to creating links for new users only. This worked great for my use case of sending creds to a client I had already created an account for. 



i think the popup modal with the new link might need some style adjustments on mobile devices. It was tricky to copy the entire link. A copy button would be a help... It might have been there just couldn't see the full width of the modal on my phone.
