  • Very Well Made

    This plugin, is extremely well thought through and very well made. Plenty of filters for developers to hook into and adjust to their liking. I've managed to filter the email body, the characters used for the code, the REST API namespace, the code length and loads more, with total ease. Great plugin - thank you!

    You've helped me more than you know. Is it possible to use it with a user who is an administrator?
