Auth0 Login for WordPress provides a simple, secure way to log in to WordPress using Auth0. It hides the default login screen with a redirect to Auth0.

Watch this video to see how to configure your Auth0 application and hook it up to WordPress:

Features

• Very easy to set up
• Replaces the standard WordPress login URL with a secret link for additional security
• Authenticates users via Auth0 using OAuth 2.0 / OIDC

Configuration

You can configure the plugin either through the WordPress admin interface or by defining constants in your wp-config.php file (recommended for enhanced security).

Option 1: WordPress Admin Configuration (Basic)

1. Go to WordPress Admin > Settings > Auth0
2. Enter the following required information:
   • Secret Login Token: A unique, random string that will be used for your custom login URL
   • Domain: Your Auth0 domain (e.g., your-tenant.auth0.com)
   • Client ID: Your Auth0 application Client ID
   • Client Secret: Your Auth0 application Client Secret
3. Save changes

Option 2: wp-config.php Configuration (Recommended)

For enhanced security, add the following lines to your wp-config.php file:

// Auth0 Configuration
define( 'AYSNC_AUTH0_SECRET_LOGIN_TOKEN', 'your-secret-token' );
define( 'AYSNC_AUTH0_DOMAIN', 'your-tenant.auth0.com' );
define( 'AYSNC_AUTH0_CLIENT_ID', 'your-client-id' );
define( 'AYSNC_AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET', 'your-client-secret' );

This method prevents your Auth0 credentials from being stored in the database.

Important: Don’t lose your login URL!

After configuring the plugin:

1. Your WordPress login URL will change to: https://your-wordpress-site.com/your-secret-token
2. The standard wp-login.php page will be disabled
3. Save your new login URL in a secure location – you’ll need it to access your WordPress admin area

If you change your Secret Login Token in wp-config.php, use the “Update Login URL” button in the Auth0 settings page to refresh the login URL.

External Services

This plugin connects to Auth0, a third-party authentication service, to provide secure user authentication for your WordPress site.

What is Auth0 and what is it used for?

Auth0 is a cloud-based identity and access management platform that provides authentication and authorization services. This plugin uses Auth0 to authenticate users instead of using WordPress’s built-in authentication system.

What data is sent and when?

The following data is transmitted to Auth0:
* When a user attempts to log in: The user is redirected to Auth0’s servers for authentication
* During the OAuth flow: Auth0 receives user credentials and returns authentication tokens and user profile information (email, name, etc.) back to your WordPress site
* User profile information such as email address is retrieved from Auth0 to match or create WordPress user accounts
