About One Time Login
This plugin allows you to generate one-time login URLs for any existing user in your WordPress install. These URLs can be used to log in to the website without creating a new user account. The plugin can be used through both WP CLI and WP API, and you can specify the number of login tokens to generate and whether to delay the deletion of existing tokens.Frequently asked questions
What is the purpose of the One Time Login plugin?
The One Time Login plugin allows you to generate one-time login URLs for any existing user on a WordPress install. This is useful when you need access without creating a new user account.
How do I generate a one-time login URL?
You can generate one-time login URLs using WP-CLI or the WP API. After running the command, a success message will display the generated URL(s).
Are the generated URLs reusable?
No, the generated URLs are one-time login URLs and will only work once. If you need access again, you must run the WP-CLI command or WP API call again to generate new URLs.
Can I generate multiple one-time login URLs at once?
Yes, you can generate more than one login token by using the 'count' parameter when running the WP-CLI command or making a WP API call.
What is the 'delay-delete' parameter for?
The 'delay-delete' parameter allows you to delete existing tokens after 15 minutes, instead of immediately. This can be useful for providing a short window of extended access.
