<p><strong>Password Less Login</strong> is a passwordless and OTP-based login system for WordPress.<br />
Every user — both existing and new — must verify their identity using a <strong>One-Time Password (OTP)</strong> sent to their email before being logged in.</p>
<p>This ensures that no one can access an account without confirming ownership of the email address, providing a secure, passwordless authentication process.</p>
<h3>How It Works</h3>
<ol>
<li>The user enters their email address.</li>
<li>The plugin sends a <strong>6-digit OTP</strong> to that email.</li>
<li>The user enters the OTP:
<ul>
<li>If the email exists <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> the user is securely logged in.</li>
<li>If the email is new <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> the user provides a username, verifies the OTP, and a new account is created automatically.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The OTP is valid for <strong>10 minutes</strong> and expires after use.</li>
</ol>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> The plugin never logs in users without OTP verification.</p>
</blockquote>
