Basic Setup

3. Set Token Lifespan (a number plus a unit: Minutes, Hours, or Days) to control how long a link stays valid.
4. Set Token Validity (how many times a link may be used; default is 1).
5. Turn on Show on Login Form so a magic-link button appears on wp-login.php.
6. Save changes.

First Test

1. Open your site login page (/wp-login.php).
2. Click the magic-link button.
3. Enter your username or email.
