Best plugin for passwordless login
by torstenl·2 weeks ago

I use the Pro version of the plugin and I’m absolutely thrilled with it. In terms of features, support, and price, it’s my top choice. I would recommend this plugin to anyone who wants to simplify their work while still being GDPR compliant.

Powerfull and great support
by johan.seidenfaden·1 month ago

I am using the pro version and this really ads a frictionless UX for news sites that want readers to log in and do stuff. When I struggled with setting up dynamic redirects the support stepped in instantly.

Great Plugin and FANTASTIC Support
by ozredwine·5 months ago

I am using Magic Login Pro and it is an amazing work by the team. It is easy to implement and get excellent security. I have no words to THANK the team for all the support even before I bought the plugin. Keep it up the good work and will try your other plugins too soon.

Limited in wrong places.
by Joe Bloggs·5 months ago·1 reply

I’m giving this 3 stars. I hope it’s fair.

I like the plugin. It functions well. It’s simple and it works.

The free version of the plugin is cut down to bare minimum functionality, which is perfectly fine. That’s understandable, and I don’t have any issue with that.

However, the fact that I can’t even edit text of the email that comes through with the magic link is quite ‘unnecessary’ in my opnion.

Replaced with a different plugin, unfortunately.

The developer really cares
by painlessseo·7 months ago

I’m new to this plugin and asked a few beginner questions. The developer was responsive and even shared some PHP code to help me out. This feels like what the WordPress community spirit is supposed to be.
