Choose Email + Password, Email Only, or Email + Optional Password for existing native WordPress accounts. Email + Password is the default. Administrator accounts always require their native WordPress password; for users with several roles, the stricter applicable requirement applies.
No. The user explicitly confirms the one-time email link before sign-in completes. Configure link expiry from 5 to 60 minutes. Confirmation creates a separate five-minute sign-in challenge, and the configured password policy still applies. Mailbox access is required; passwordless mode is not an independent second factor.
Place [email_auth_login] on a WordPress page. Configure the email subject, sender, logo, footer and safe HTML template in Email Auth settings. It uses existing WordPress email delivery and supports JavaScript-free submissions, local redirects and native Stay Logged In cookies. Exclude authentication pages and requests from full-page or CDN caching.
Verify HTTPS, real inbox delivery and a tested main-administrator recovery path first. Traditional staff access stays available by default until enforcement is enabled. A configured recovery route still requires the administrator’s actual WordPress password. Use the source documentation for server-access recovery during an email outage; never share your saved recovery URL or credentials in a public message.
No. Users, roles, passwords and sessions remain in WordPress, and there is no separate authentication SaaS requirement. The plugin requires WordPress 6.6+, PHP 8.2+, HTTPS, working email, database table permissions and PHP OpenSSL for the recoverable administrator URL. Review checkout, registration and custom authentication integrations before enforcing verification.
