Login integrated in the URL

  • Hi all
    I’m building an information website about our company, and a B2B catalog of our product as distinct pages.
    These pages I want in Private mode, only accessible if you are logged in as an user (all B2B customers would be logged in as this one same user).
    My question is : what is the syntax to make a link that I would send to customers, which will directs to the website and log-in at the same time ? like
    “www.mywebsite.com/b2b_intro_page.html?login=b2buser&pw=b2bpass” ?

    Thank you in advance
    Morklavor

    Hi @prashantvatsh

    Thank you for the link. It seems that tany visitor with the proper linke would be at least editor which brings a lot of trouble indeed. Is it not possible to adjust the level of access required to edit a page ?
    I will look into plugin, or maybe even password protected – problem with password is I fear it would affect the whole set of pages and visitors would have to type it every time they change page, is it right ?

    Also on the core of my question – is it possible to make a link including authentification at all ? it is not mentioned in the link.

    Thank you

    Also on the core of my question – is it possible to make a link including authentification at all ? it is not mentioned in the link.

    There are plugins like https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/autologin-links/ that you can check. I am not sure if they will serve your purpose.

    problem with password is I fear it would affect the whole set of pages and visitors would have to type it every time they change page, is it right ?

    Only on the page that is set as password protected, user has to type the password which is set for that page.

    If page is set as private then any logged-in user only can access them.

    Wow I think you nailed it – Autologin seems to be what I’m looking for !
    Will see if it works how I see it, but anyway thanks a lot for the quick help !
