AIO Login Pro enables secure passwordless login for WordPress using Temporary Access Links. These links allow users to log in instantly—without entering a username or password, making it ideal for sharing secure access sharing, time-limited access with developers, clients, or support teams.

Overview

Temporary Access Links provide a simple and secure way to grant password-free WordPress login access. Each temporary login link is tied to a specific user account and can be restricted by time and usage limits.

Once the link expires or reaches its usage limit, it automatically becomes invalid ensuring controlled and secure access.

How to Enable Passwordless Login

Step 1: Access Temporary Access Settings

Navigates to WordPress Dashboard → AIO Login → Temporary Access

Step 2: Enable the Feature

Toggle Enable to ON and click Save.

This activates passwordless login link generation on your site.

Tip: Create a dedicated WordPress user (e.g., Guest or Editor) with limited permissions before generating links.

How to Create a Temporary Access Link

Step 3: Generate a New Login Link

• Click Add New

• A pop-up appears with the following fields:
• Select User
  Choose an existing WordPress user from the dropdown. The generated link will log in as this user and inherit their role and permissions.
• Expires
  Set how long the link remains active using:
  • A numeric input field (enter the duration value)
  • A unit dropdown selector with options:
    • Minutes
    • Hours
    • Days
    • Weeks
    • Years

This allows flexible expiration control based on your needs.

Important: Once the defined duration is reached, the link automatically self expiration based login and becomes unusable.

Usage Limit
Define how many times the limited use login link can be used (minimum: 1).

Note: Each successful login counts as one usage. Once the limit is reached, the link is disabled automatically.

• Click Save changes to generate the link

Step 4: Copy and Share the Link

Once created, the link appears in the table with:

• Username – Associated WordPress user
• Expires At – Expiration date/time
• Uses – Usage count (e.g., 0/5)
• Link – Passwordless login URL
• Created At – Creation timestamp

Click the copy icon to copy the link and securely share it.

Example Format:

https://yourdomain.com/?aio-login-hash=unique-token

Important: Anyone with this link can log in as the assigned user until it expires or reaches its usage limit.

Managing Temporary Access Links

Edit a Link

• Click Edit next to a link
• Update:
  • Expiration time (resets from the current time)
  • Usage limit

Note: The assigned user cannot be changed. Create a new link if needed.

Delete a Link

• Click Delete
• Confirm the action by click on YES.

The link becomes immediately invalid.

Best Practice: Always use a dedicated, low-permission user rather than sharing admin-level access.
