Login with NEAR

by

If your WordPress site is for NEAR-native users (learners, builders, community members), password logins feel… ancient.

Login with NEAR adds a clean “login with wallet” flow to WordPress — and you can drop the button anywhere with one shortcode.

What users get (the vibe)

✅ Click Login with NEAR
✅ Pick their wallet
✅ Approve
✅ They’re in

No “forgot password”, no email loops, no friction.

And if it’s their first time, WordPress can auto-create a user account behind the scenes.

Why LNC likes this

⚡ Less friction = more learning

The fastest way to lose someone is a login form. Wallet login is instant.

🧩 Works with WordPress roles + plugins

Once logged in, they’re a normal WP user — so you can still use:

  • Roles (Subscriber / Editor / etc.)
  • Member-only pages
  • Any plugin that checks “is user logged in?”

🪪 Wallet = identity (simple + familiar in Web3)

If your audience already uses NEAR wallets, this feels natural.

Perfect for

  • Community / members area
  • Course access (wallet login to view lessons)
  • Event pages / RSVP
  • Token-gated content (logged-in wallet users only)
  • Web3 onboarding pages (clean “Connect Wallet” UX)

Setup in 2 minutes

1) Install the plugin

WordPress Admin → Plugins → Add New → search “Login with NEAR” → Install → Activate

2) Add the login button anywhere

Paste this shortcode into any page/post/widget:

That’s it.
Bonus: after login, it automatically becomes a Logout button.

Optional (nice-to-have) settings

You can configure things like:

  • Button text (ex: “Connect NEAR Wallet”)
  • CSS class (so it matches your theme)
  • Network (mainnet / testnet)
  • Contract ID (if you’re connecting the login to a NEAR app)

If you don’t know what “contract ID” is — skip it. Start simple.

Quick UX tips (LNC-style)

  • Put the button above the fold
  • Use friendly copy:
    • “Connect NEAR Wallet”
    • “Continue with NEAR”
    • “Login (wallet)”
  • Add one line under it:
    • “No password. Just approve in your wallet.”
