Magic Login

Magic Login lets users sign in or register instantly via email using secure single-use magic links or 6-digit passcodes—eliminating passwords and friction for Drupal sites.

Magic Login simplifies authentication by enabling secure, passwordless sign-ins for Drupal. Users enter their email address and immediately receive a single-use login link or a six-digit passcode—allowing them to access their account without ever remembering or managing a password. Designed with zero-friction onboarding in mind, it can automatically create accounts for first-time visitors, making sign-ups completely seamless.

Features

• Passwordless Authentication: Allows users to log in instantly via a secure, time-limited magic link or a six-digit magic passcode sent straight to their inbox.
• Automatic Account Creation: Option to create accounts automatically when a new email address is used, eliminating complex registration forms.
• Granular Role Controls: Built-in safeguards ensure newly registered accounts only receive allowed non-admin roles without risky permissions.
• Flexible Redirects: Configurable landing pages post-login (with an optional custom welcome screen on the first sign-in).
• Developer-Friendly Hooks: Easily customize signup rules, agree-to-terms checkboxes, or country restrictions using hook_form_magic_login_signup_form_alter().

Post-Installation

1. Install and enable the module via Composer or Drush.
2. Navigate to Administration → Configuration → People → Magic Login (/admin/config/people/magic-login).
3. Set your preferred landing page path, configure link/code expiration timeouts, and specify role assignment rules for self-registered users.
4. Customize the email template or hook into an HTML mail system (such as the HTML Mail module) to fit your site's branding.

Additional Requirements

• Drupal Core: ^10.3 || ^11
• System Requirements: A working mail delivery system on your server (such as Symfony Mailer or SMTP) to ensure prompt delivery of magic links.

Recommended modules/libraries

• A useful companion (but independent) module Magic HTML Mail or Symfony Mailer: Enhances the plain-text sign-in emails with custom HTML styling and branding.

Similar projects

While modules like magic_link, magic_login_link, dripyard_simple_login, and passwordless provide link-based authentication, they strictly require an existing user account. Magic Login is specifically built to support both existing user logins and instant single-step account creation for brand-new users.
