Reviews
what people actually sayLogin With Ajax is a well-regarded, lightweight login plugin that handles its core function reliably across many sites, but is held back by a persistent pattern of unresponsive support — including for paying premium customers.
What people like

Common complaints
- −Support is largely unresponsive — multiple reviewers report no replies on both the free forum and the paid premium support channel×4
