How to include users email into login page link?

    We wish to redirect users to login page with user email already in the link. The question is if the user email can be URL encoded into the action=magic_login link.
    Example: ../wp-login.php?action=magic_login&[email protected]
    Thank you for the help!

    Hi @ifwarewp,

    If you are using a custom page with shortcode or block, you can try something like this:

    https://gist.github.com/mustafauysal/b84ced33737a399bda4bb742113bc851

    It should populate to given “email” parameter from query string.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you for this detailed and helpful response. Does the file ‘pre-filled-email-with-magic-login.php‘ need to be stored into the ../magic-plugin/includes path?

    Hi @ifwarewp,

    You’re welcome.


    Does the file ‘pre-filled-email-with-magic-login.php‘ need to be stored into the ../magic-plugin/includes path?

    No, please. Don’t update any of the plugins directly because the plugin updates will override the custom modification you made.

    You can copy the snippet and add it to your theme’s functions.php, or you can use the code snippets plugin to add this kind of customization.

    As an alternative, you can always create “mu-plugins” directory under the wp-content and place pre-filled-email-with-magic-login.php there.

    I hope this helps.

    Hello Mustafa,

    Your immediate availability and dedication to help are greatly appreciated. Both ways, either to add a code snippet to the themes functions.php or alternatively to add the file ‘pre-filled-email-with-magic-login.php‘ to ../mu-plugins didn’t work for me. Not sure how to proceed… Thank you for your help.

    Hi @ifwarewp,

    I may have misunderstood your objective, the code snippet I provided is intended for auto-populating the login form with the specified email address. Are you trying to achieve something else? It would be better if you could explain what you meant by redirection.

    Btw, the snippet was not working on wp-login.php particularly, since the login page uses login_footer hook. (I’ve updated the snippet)

    Hello again ?? with good news, this time. Your understanding of the goal is correct and it works now. The updated action+function code was placed into the beginning of themes functions.php file. Thank you so much for your excellent help!
