User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the JWT login WordPress plugin for its robust functionality, ease of use, and excellent support from the developer, Nicu. It simplifies setting up secure authentication, particularly beneficial for mobile and third-party applications. Users find its interface intuitive, and many laud its ability to handle login, registration, and password management through the REST API smoothly. The plugin’s extensive features and configurability through the backend are also highlights. However, some users faced issues with documentation clarity and encountered bugs related to secret key creation and API requests. Despite these drawbacks, the developer's responsiveness and swift bug fixes receive high praise.

Hello, Nicu Micle. Thanks for making my life easier. The plugin is really good. You are the best and a great developer. This plugin works great! the only thing: if you want to use the verification, go to the login section and in JWT Login Settings set Log In by WordPress username and in the JWT parameter key write username. thank you mate. really appreciate it.

After installing this plugin and following all the docs, which explain nothing about how to create the secret key to enter into the settings, the plugin does still not work. Every request to API returns invalid credentials error even with correct email and password. Big fail. Horrible plugin.
