How Can I Create A Magic Link For A WordPress User Manually?

Create a Magic Link manually for any registered user from your WordPress dashboard. This is useful when you need to give someone quick access without asking them to reset a password or troubleshoot login problems.

When to Use It

  • Customer support requests
  • New user onboarding
  • Testing user accounts
  • Recovery situations where a user cannot log in
  • Internal admin workflows

How to Use

  1. Go to Users > All Users.
  2. Open any user profile, or use the row action on the users list.
  3. Click Generate Magic Link.
  4. A new secure login link is created that you can copy and send.

You can also create a link for any user from Magic Link > Magic Links. See Manage Magic Links.

Example

A customer cannot access their account. Instead of resetting the password:

Generate a Magic Link -> Send it -> Customer logs in instantly.
