Temporary Login Without Password

Description

Temporary Login Without Password lets you create a self-expiring login link and share it with a developer, support agent, or guest editor — instead of handing over your username and password.

The person just clicks the link and they’re logged in. No account setup, no shared credentials, no password to remember or revoke later. You choose the role and the expiry, and access shuts off automatically when the time is up.

How it helps

Every time you share your real admin login with an outside developer, you’re trusting them with permanent access — and you have to remember to change the password after. TLWP removes that risk entirely. Generate a link, set it to expire in an hour, a day, or a custom date, and you’re done.

Benefits

• Create unlimited temporary logins
• Assign any WordPress role to a temporary account
• No username or password needed — login is just a click
• Set expiry by time (hour, day, week, month) or a custom date
• Redirect the user to a specific page after login
• Set a language for the temporary user
• See last login time and number of times accessed
• Track what each temporary user did with detailed activity logs

Who this is for

• Site owners who need to give a developer quick access without sharing real credentials
• Agencies onboarding client sites for support or maintenance
• Bloggers giving guest writers or editors short-term review access
• Developers who want a clean, auditable way to request site access from clients

For Developers

If you need admin access to a client’s WordPress site to resolve an issue, send them this:

Hi {%customer_name%},

To allow me to investigate your site, please install the free plugin Temporary Login Without Password, and share the temporary admin link it generates. Once I have access, I’ll check the site and try to resolve the issue.

Note: Set the expiry to one month, and send me the generated link as a reply to this email.
