Hi Tom,
Basically you need to configure this plugin..
Do you have a restricted login on your website?
If yes then you need to put a link to complete page from where you have kept link to your blog..
You can contact me if you have any problem configuring;

Though there seemed to be a bug which has been fixed. You can download another copy and try again..

Good Luck.

I installed your plugin. However, rather than allowing only users from one website to bypass the login it allows EVERYONE to bybass the login; which defeats the purpose of having a site locked down. So, it does not appear to work.

Hi there. Many thanks for this really interesting plugin. Looks very useful.

Can you tell us how it works please, technically? I’m trialling it but notice that, when you log out of the guest user account on the password protected site, you’re not in fact logged out. I can select www.[sitename]/wp-admin and get straight back into the backend. Why is that?

Another question please is whether it’d be possible to make the autologon dependent on a click-through from a particular page on the referring website, rather than allowing any page on that site’s domain to action an auto-logon. So, instead of www.sitename.org allowing you in, you’d only be allowed in if you clicked a link to the site from, for example, www.sitename.org/pages/auto-login-page. Is that possible?

Many thanks
Richard
