<p>Need access to a WordPress install but don’t want to create a new user account? Use this plugin to generate one-time login URLs for any existing user.<br />
Then, copy the URL, paste it into your web browser, and… voila!</p>
<p>Because they are one-time login URLs, they will only work once. If you need access again, you’ll need to run the WP-CLI command again.</p>
<h3>Using WP CLI to generate OTT URLs</h3>
<h3>Example</h3>
<pre><code>wp plugin install one-time-login --activate && wp user one-time-login <user> --count=3 --delay-delete
</code></pre>
<p>After you run the command above, you’ll see a success message like this:</p>
<pre><code>http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=2&one_time_login_token=93974b48e3a418b895fc7ca476f1a607d8b99345
</code></pre>
<p>Or like this if you asked for more than one:</p>
<pre><code>http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=1&one_time_login_token=2b9c6f5d71d51d530e397ee9da3b50e4e3dd06e7
http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=1&one_time_login_token=90897da439a116c613fc1c49c372e6b1f7c72ad8
http://wpdev.test/wp-login.php?user_id=1&one_time_login_token=68c8074743de849db606500c3caa39a7432dc601<h3>Parameters</h3>
</code></pre>
<p>* <em>count</em>: Generate more than one login token (default: 1);<br />
* <em>delay-delete</em>: Delete existing tokens after 15 minutes, instead of immediately.</p>
<h3>Using WP API to generate OTT URLs</h3>
<h3>Example with cUrl</h3>
<pre><code>curl -X POST \
    http://wpdev.test/wp-json/one-time-login/v1/token
    -H 'authorization: Basic YWRtaW46eFRQeUJ5c3hEckhkY3BNYjE2endiQ2tj'
    -H 'cache-control: no-cache'
    -H 'postman-token: 8dcfa79a-401a-2c7d-c593-703e683ce785'
    -d '{
        "user":"admin",
        "count": 3,
        "delay-delete": true
    }'<h3>Parameters</h3>
</code></pre>
<p>Just as with WP CLI, you can add the <strong>count</strong> and <strong>delay_delete</strong> parameters to your call.</p>

One Time Login

Use WP-CLI to generate a one-time login URL for any user

<p>Limit the number of login attempts possible both through normal login as well as using auth cookies.</p>
<p>By default WordPress allows unlimited login attempts either through the login page or by sending special cookies. This allows passwords (or hashes) to be brute-force cracked with relative ease.</p>
<p>Limit Login Attempts blocks an Internet address from making further attempts after a specified limit on retries is reached, making a brute-force attack difficult or impossible.</p>
<p>Features</p>
<ul>
<li>Limit the number of retry attempts when logging in (for each IP). Fully customizable</li>
<li>Limit the number of attempts to log in using auth cookies in same way</li>
<li>Informs user about remaining retries or lockout time on login page</li>
<li>Optional logging, optional email notification</li>
<li>Handles server behind reverse proxy</li>
<li>It is possible to whitelist IPs using a filter. But you probably shouldn’t. 🙂</li>
</ul>
<p>Translations: Bulgarian, Brazilian Portuguese, Catalan, Chinese (Traditional), Czech, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Norwegian, Persian, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish</p>
<p>Plugin uses standard actions and filters only.</p>


Limit Login Attempts

bad role

We had initial issues and tried again and it is working better.

Getting a lot better.


I absolutely hate bloated plugins, so I love this one. It's simple and works as expected. Guess it's wise to use a plugin such as this one, against brute force attacks.

Love this plugin

Limit rate of login attempts, including by way of cookies, for each IP. Fully customizable.
