In the settings of the plugin you can also define a Redirect to after login url. Use a relative url like /profile-page to redirect users to a custom page. Alternatively leave the page blank to redirect users to the WordPress backend. Login To add the login code to your website add the [almefy-login] shortcode to your page. Alternatively you may add it via do_shortcode('[almefy-login]'); to your theme. If you would like to redirect users to the backend when logging in via the WordPress login at /wp-login.php but to a profile page when logging in via the the frontend you have to: – Leave the Redirect to after login empty in the plugin settings – Set the ‘redirect’ variable on the shortcode Example: [almefy-login redirect="/profile"] Device Management The built in device manager is found in the backend Users -> Profile. If you do not want your users to have access to the WordPress backend but let them manage their devices, add the [almefy-devices] shortcode to a custom profile page. Connecting new devices When creating an account, users will receive an email asking them to connect their device. Further devices may be connected in the backend Users -> Profile. To add management options like connecting and removing devices to the frontend of your website, you may include the device connection shortcode to a profile page using [almefy-connect]. Password-free Registration (Optional) You may add password free registration by adding the [almefy-register] shortcode. Disabling require_username will result in users just being prompted for an email address. The button text is customizable by setting the button_text variable. Example: [almefy-register require_username="false" button_text="Sign Up Now!"]; License GNU General Public License v2.0 – GNU Project – Free Software Foundation https://www.gnu.org Contact – Almefy : 2FA Authentication in one step https://almefy.com
