CLI Command

Magic Login Pro includes powerful WP-CLI support to manage login links, QR code generation, bulk user operations, and plugin settings. This allows for automation, remote control, and developer-friendly workflows in server environments.

Create Magic Login Links for a User #

Generate one or more magic login URLs for any existing user by their ID, login, or email:

wp magic-login create <user> [--count=<count>] [--redirect-to=<url>] [--send] [--qr] [--qr-img]

Parameters #

• --count: Number of links to generate (default: 1).
• --redirect-to: Optional redirect URL after login.
• --send: Sends the login link to the user’s email.
• --qr: Outputs the QR code URL for each login link.
• --qr-img: Outputs the QR code as an HTML <img> tag.

Example:

wp magic-login create admin --count=1 --redirect-to='https://example.org/' --qr

and output will be something like

https://example.org/wp-login.php?user_id=1&token=...
QR: https://example.org/magic-login-qr?url=...

In version 1.3.1, `redirect-to` parameter has been added! You can easily specify the redirection URLs.

Bulk Generate Login Links by Role #

Generate login links for all users of a specific role and optionally export them:

wp magic-login bulk-create [--role=<role>] [--redirect-to=<url>] [--send] [--format=<format>] [--qr] [--qr-img]

Parameters #

• --role: Restrict generation to users with a specific role.
• --redirect-to: Optional redirect URL.
• --send: Emails each user their link.
• --format: Output format (table, csv, json, yaml). Default: table.
• --qr: Adds a QR code URL to each record.
• --qr-img: Adds an <img> tag with QR code to each record.

Example:

wp magic-login bulk-create --role=subscriber --format=csv --qr > login-links.csv

Export Plugin Settings #

Export your current plugin settings to a .json file:

wp magic-login export-settings [--file=<file>] [--include-sensitive] [--include-license]

Parameters #

• --file: Path to export file (default: magic-login-settings.json).
• --include-sensitive: Includes decrypted API credentials.
• --include-license: Includes license key.

Example:

wp magic-login export-settings --file=config.json --include-sensitive --include-license

Import Plugin Settings #

Import a previously exported settings file:

wp magic-login import-settings --file=<file> [--activate-license]

Parameters #

• --file: Path to a .json settings file.
• --activate-license: Activates license from the file.

Example

wp magic-login import-settings --file=config.json --activate-license

Reset Plugin Data #

Reset plugin data using the following command:

wp magic-login reset <what>

Options for <what>

• settings: Reset plugin settings.
• license: Reset stored license key.
• all-tokens: Delete all user login tokens.

wp magic-login reset all-tokens

Notes #

• All CLI operations assume you have the appropriate permissions.
• Login links generated via CLI bypass IP restrictions.
• Use --include-sensitive and --include-license flags cautiously in production environments.
• WP-CLI is recommended for advanced users, CI/CD workflows, and bulk administration tasks.
