Works amazing!
I am a big fan of WP Manage plugins, and I truly appreciate them making some of their coolest products free for WordPress-based creators and business owners. Like FluentSnippets and FluentSMTP, FluentAuth is also a great plugin that works flawlessly for me. I initially had a hick-up with the set up but it turned out to be a caching issue (support was fast and very helpful with testing). Now I am also using the Social Login option that comes with it which helped decrease the number of plugins we use. I haven't tried the authenticator app connection, yet, but 2FA also works great (FluentAuth sends a code to email when password request is initiated)! Highly recommend FluentAuth!

Amazing new additions
Wow, the recent feature updates have really made the plugin feel complete to me. I hesitated to use it before because it didn’t support 2FA apps. Now, however, I’m going to use it on my websites. The Login Page Designer is also a neat feature. The instructions for disabling 2FA via the wp-config.php file, in case there is ever a problem logging in with 2FA (email or app), make using the plugin much safer and help prevent administrators from being accidentally locked out - for example, if email delivery fails or you lose your phone with the 2FA app. Thanks to the Fluent-Team for this amazing update making a great plugin even greater.

Great features and strong recent improvements
I've had my eye on this plugin for a while, but didn't fully implement it until I learned that version 3.0 supported both passkeys and 2FA with authenticator apps. Between that and email verification codes upon registration, this plugin goes a long way to making authorization on your WordPress site much more secure. It even has other cool features like a login page customizer and file monitoring. In an era where AI is fasttracking the discovery and exploitation of any little software vulnerability, every bit of security you can add to your site is important. There are only two other features that I wish it had: 1) Built-in Cloudflare Turnstile protection for the login/registration form (but that's easy enough to add with another plugin or custom dev); 2) the option to change the URL/slug of the login page (like the WPS Hide Login plugin). Even with those two features lacking, though, this plugin is now an easy 5-star plugin in my book. I'd recommend it for any WordPress site.

This is a great plugin. Even better has been the support I have received from the team.

A half-baked system
There is no way to customize the login and registration fields. Even when using the provided shortcuts, these pages still cannot be customized as needed. The documentation is so brief that it is difficult to find any truly useful information. After integrating Google Sign-In and Google Registration, users who register with a Google account get stuck on the login page and are never redirected, making the registration process unusable. FluentAuth customer service team didn't solve my problem at all. They spent two whole weeks repeatedly telling me that I was just stuck on the login issue, which was a complete waste of my time. In the end, I had to fix it myself. The actual issue was that after completing the registration, the page cache got completely stuck and failed to pass the data to the account login. This caused an infinite loop on the login page, making it absolutely impossible to log in. This is clearly a flaw in your system's design and has absolutely nothing to do with any third-party plugins.
