BerryPress

<p>LoginBerry bundles <strong>account verification</strong>, <strong>two-factor authentication (2FA)</strong>, <strong>passwordless login</strong>, and <strong>login logs</strong>. Each feature can be enabled or disabled independently. Outgoing codes are delivered by <strong>email</strong>.</p>
<p>The plugin works for standard WordPress sites. When WooCommerce is active, additional customer- and order-related options are available (for example 2FA on the My Account login form and optional account activation tied to orders).</p>
<h4>User-facing behavior (when features are enabled)</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Account verification:</strong> After registration, the user signs in and completes activation on the configured activation page using a six-digit code sent by email.</li>
<li><strong>Two-factor authentication:</strong> After a successful username and password, the user enters a second code sent by email. Per-role modes are Required, Optional, or Disabled.</li>
<li><strong>Passwordless login:</strong> On <code>wp-login.php</code>, eligible roles may request a one-time email code instead of entering a password.</li>
<li><strong>Login logs:</strong> Success and failure records are listed in the WordPress admin.</li>
</ul>
<p>Authentication codes are email-based; end users do not install a separate authenticator app for the flows described here.</p>
<h4>Account verification</h4>
<ul>
<li>New accounts receive a six-digit activation code by email.</li>
<li>After fifteen failed activation attempts, the account is locked until an administrator intervenes.</li>
<li>Administrators can resend codes, activate accounts manually, and unlock accounts from <strong>Users <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> All Users</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Two-factor authentication (2FA)</h4>
<ul>
<li>Per-role setting: Required, Optional, or Disabled.</li>
<li>Optional mode allows users to enable 2FA from the profile when permitted by role.</li>
<li>Supported on <code>wp-login.php</code> and on the WooCommerce <strong>My Account</strong> login form.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Passwordless login</h4>
<p>Let users log in without a password – just enter a username or email and receive a one-time login code. Improves user experience while maintaining strong security through email verification.</p>
<ul>
<li>Toggle between password and passwordless login on wp-login.php</li>
<li>One-time email codes on <code>wp-login.php</code>, controlled per role.</li>
<li>When both passwordless login and 2FA are enabled for the same role, the passwordless flow does not require a separate 2FA step (email possession is already verified).</li>
</ul>
<h4>WooCommerce</h4>
<ul>
<li>Optional automatic account activation when an WooCommerce order is created.</li>
<li>Optional restriction so that only <strong>paid</strong> orders trigger activation.</li>
<li>Integration points include classic checkout, block checkout (Store API), and paid-order completion hooks, as implemented in the plugin.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Login logs</h4>
<p>Monitor all login activity on your site. Essential for detecting suspicious behavior and meeting security compliance requirements for e-commerce stores.</p>
<ul>
<li>Records successful and failed login attempts</li>
<li>Logs username, email, IP address, and timestamp</li>
<li>View all logs in a dedicated admin page with sortable columns</li>
<li>Identify patterns of brute force attacks and suspicious login activity</li>
<li>Audit trail for security compliance and fraud investigation</li>
</ul>
<h4>Admin interface</h4>
<ul>
<li>Centralized settings under <strong>BerryPress <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> LoginBerry</strong>, with separate screens per feature.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Email templates</h4>
<p>HTML email templates for activation, 2FA, and passwordless login ship in the plugin <code>templates/</code> directory. To override, copy the desired template into the active theme or child theme under <code>templates/loginberry/</code> (see each template file header for the exact path).</p>
<h4>Email delivery</h4>
<p>Reliable outbound email is required for codes to arrive. Typical setups use the hosting provider’s mail relay, a transactional email API (for example Brevo, Mailchimp Transactional / Mandrill, Postmark, SendGrid, Amazon SES), or a WordPress plugin that sends mail via SMTP or a provider API. Test delivery with a real signup or code request before relying on the feature in production.</p>
<h4>Typical use cases</h4>
<ul>
<li>Reducing unwanted or automated registrations and limiting abuse of disposable email addresses.</li>
<li>Verifying that a customer or member controls the email address on file.</li>
<li>Adding a second factor after password entry for selected roles.</li>
<li>Reviewing login success and failure history in the admin.</li>
<li>WooCommerce: applying optional post-order account activation, including a paid-order-only mode where configured.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Roadmap</h4>
<p>LoginBerry is a brand new plugin and we are improving it quickly based on real user feedback. If you have ideas, feature requests, or run into a theme-specific styling issue, we would love to hear from you.</p>
<p>Planned work includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Configurable failed-attempt limits (instead of the fixed fifteen for activation lockout)</li>
<li>Track last login time for each user</li>
<li>Custom activation page URL</li>
<li>Custom redirect URL after successful verification</li>
<li>Rate limiting on code verification attempts</li>
<li>Social login options</li>
<li>Improved styling flexibility and theme compatibility</li>
</ul>
<p>Feedback and compatibility reports are welcome via the plugin support channels. New features are prioritized based on user feedback.</p>

<p><strong>Bifröst</strong> is a WordPress plugin that helps create instant passwordless login links. Use those links to securely allow people temporary admin access to your WordPress site (dashboard).</p>
<p>As WordPress site owners, we frequently give temporary admin access to people. Among many cases, giving temporary admin access to support engineers to troubleshoot an issue is prominent. In contrast with the default process of creating a user, <strong>Bifröst</strong> can instantly create a secure login link.</p>
<h3>How to Create Passwordless Temporary Login Links for WordPress</h3>
<p>The following video demonstrates creating a temporary login link for WordPress using <strong>Bifröst</strong>.</p>
<span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe loading="lazy" class="youtube-player" width="750" height="422" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mG9rUl0ou5k?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en-US&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span>
<p>How often do you need to allow someone access to your WordPress site? There are many cases when you need to allow people access to your site, including support engineers.</p>
<p>Allowing temporary access to your WordPress site was never easier. Create a temporary login URL to give people instant access to your site. You don’t need any email address, username or password.</p>
<h3>🔐️ Feature Highlight of Bifröst</h3>
<p>🔑️ Instantly create passwordless temporary login links for WP.</p>
<p>🔑️ Remove/delete temporary login links anytime you want.</p>
<p>🔑️ By default, the temporary login links are valid for 7 days.</p>
<p>🔑️ You can increase the validity by 3 days for expired login links.</p>
<h3>How does Bifröst work</h3>
<p>You can create passwordless temporary login links after successfully installing <strong>Bifröst</strong> on your WordPress site. Like most WordPress plugins installation is very straightforward. Moreover, it does not require any additional configuration.</p>
<p>Bifröst adds its option as a sub-menu under the WordPress <strong>User</strong> menu. You can also quickly access the menu from the installed plugins section. Under the plugin name, there is a quick link called <strong>Create Login Links</strong>. Click on <strong>Create Login Links</strong> to access plugin settings. You can create temporary login links from here by clicking the Generate button.</p>
<p>By default, temporary login links are valid for 7 days. When the link expires after 7 days, you will find an option to extend the validity. You can extend validity for 3 days (you can keep repeating this process as long as necessary).</p>
<h3>Bifröst prioritizes security</h3>
<p>🔒️ Though we want to add ease to your workflow, site security is our top priority. As a result, we have coupled ease and security together.</p>
<p>🔒️ First, the temporary login link appends a cryptographically secure random byte stream. As a result, there is no pattern for people to predict/target.</p>
<p>🔒️ Second, the link expires in 7 days. So, even if you don’t remove a link, access to your dashboard will not work.</p>
<p>🔒️ On top of that, people who access your dashboard using the passwordless temporary login links, cannot access the <strong>User</strong> menu. As a result, they cannot create a new user or modify an existing user.</p>
