What can UniLogin do for you?
Built for real Joomla sites
The UniLogin plugin allows Joomla users to log in using either their email address or username, enhancing flexibility and security.
Email · Username
One Field, Two Ways In
Login with email or username
The same Joomla login field accepts either — UniLogin maps the email to the account and verifies the password with native hashing.
Username Fallback you control
Leave it on for email-or-username, or turn it off for email-only authentication.
Rate Limit · Lockout
Brute-Force Resistance
Configurable attempt limits
Set max failed logins and lockout minutes — slow down credential stuffing without locking the whole site.
Clear lockout messaging
Visitors see a timed “try again later” message instead of endless retries.
Success · Failed · Locked
Login Audit Trail
Every attempt, logged
Optional logging stores identifier, IP, status, and timestamp so you can review suspicious patterns.
Retention that cleans itself
Old rows drop automatically after your retention days — no manual purge.
Whitelist · Blacklist
Email Domain Rules
Allow only company domains
Whitelist mode keeps login to domains you list (e.g. company.com).
Or block the noise
Blacklist mode stops known throwaway or competitor domains at the auth step.
Who May Use UniLogin
Group-Based Access
Limit by user group
Restrict UniLogin to Registered, Authors, or any groups you select — others fall through or are denied.
Fits membership sites
Useful when only certain roles should sign in with email.
Your Voice on Failure
Custom Error Messages
Brand the failure copy
Override no-user, bad-password, locked, and domain-blocked messages with your own wording.
Clearer support burden
Helpful text reduces “I can’t log in” tickets without exposing whether an account exists.
Default · Per Group
Smart Post-Login Redirects
Send people where they belong
Set a default return URL, or different destinations per user group (dashboard vs member area).
Safe relative paths
Internal paths and index.php routes work; external open redirects are blocked.
Label · Placeholder
Login Form That Matches
Rename the username field
Show “Email or Username” (or any label) so visitors know the field accepts both.
Hint text included
Set a placeholder that guides first-time users without changing your template.
Joomla 4 · 5 · 6
Built for Modern Joomla
Native auth, no nested hacks
Uses Joomla’s AuthenticationEvent and UserHelper::verifyPassword — no embedding the core Joomla auth plugin.
Hardened lookups
Bound SQL, timing-safe misses, and stopPropagation on success for a cleaner auth chain.
