Description
This plugin allows you to Register and log-in to a WordPress website using a web3 cryptocurrency wallet. The plugin authenticates the user and checks the ownership of their crypto wallet. The plugin creates a regular WordPress user account, so existing plugins and customizations will continue to work as intended.
The Web3 login plugin supports both hot wallets and cold wallets. Users can use hot wallets like MetaMask, WalletConnect, Edge, Electrum, Coinbase, Trust, Robinhood, Binance, Mycelium, AtomicDEX, Jaxx, Samourai, Huobi, Luno, ZenGo, Crypto.com, Bitcoin IRA, and Exodus for website login. Popular cold wallets like Ledger Nano S, Ledger Nano X, Trezor, KeepKey, CoolWallet Pro, Safepal S1, Keystone Pro, and Ellipal Titan can also be used for login.
In the premium version, once the user is authenticated and logged in with their cryptocurrency wallet, the contents of their wallets like cryptocurrencies or NFT collections can be used to give access to gated content on the website. The plugin works flawlessly with websites having token gated content.
BY DEFAULT, A LOGIN BUTTON WILL BE ADDED ON YOUR WORDPRESS LOGIN SCREEN.

FAQ
-
Why should I use Web 3 Login Plugin?
-
Our plugin utilizes the most reliable yet most secure Blockchain Technology to secure your data. Take full advantage of our blockchain-based security which is a protocol that is virtually impossible to break. Your information will always remain safe and secure.
-
How does Web3 Login Plugin work?
-
*The outline is described in this TopTal post by Amaury Martiny.
*We have used databased nonces which are refreshed every time they are used and append the user IP or Wallet Address to the login message to prevent replays from elsewhere. -
How do I Login through metamask?
-
- Install the metamask extension in your browser.
- Install the our WEB3 login plugin. Read the “Installation”.
- A Login Button will be added in the WordPress Login window, where users can log in through the wallet public address.
-
What is signature verification
-
When a user submits a signature, it needs to be verified on the server-side.
We use libraries like Keccak, and Elliptic to verify the signature using the stored nonce in the database on the backend side. -
Are my crypto assets safe?
-
Yes. A wallet (e.g. MetaMask) does/should not leak your private keys out into the wild, that would be madness and we also don’t have access to your private keys.
