Reviews

Great plugin for passwordless login!

craigevans May 11, 2026
This is a really nice lightweight plugin that does what is says. I’ve replaced a bloated OTP passwordless plugin with this NNFP and I’m very happy with the result. Works great with Divi and Woocommerce. It works with shortcodes and with a little help from Google Ai I was able to easily install the shortcodes and styles the pop-up and forms. I’ve also been able to use it to restrict my booking calendar to logged in users in conjunction with Divi’s restrict content settings. Works great. Highly recommended!!
