a web developer and technical lead with over a decade of experience building WordPress

### 󠀁[Great plugin for passwordless login!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-for-passwordless-login/)󠁿

 [craigevans](https://profiles.wordpress.org/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!!
