Description

SSL certificate is REQUIRED for the plugin to work!
Face Recognition Login is a plugin that allows you to add login with face recognition. For extra security there is an option to add a PIN number to login.
The plugin comes with 2 modes: face recognition login form OR WordPress default login plus face recognition form.
Each user will need to add a image that will be used for recognizing the user and validate the login. This can be done by editing user profile.
If there is no data added or your user is new, there is a way to turn off face recognition login and use normal login form.

Built using library: face-api.js – Vincent Mühler that is using TensorFlow.

SSL certificate is REQUIRED for the plugin to work!

Installation

Minimum Requirements

  • PHP version 5.6 or greater (PHP 7.1 or greater is recommended)

Automatic installation

Automatic installation is the easiest option as WordPress handles the file transfers itself and you don’t need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install of Face Recognition, log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu and click Add New.

In the search field type “Face Recognition” and click Search Plugins. Once you’ve found the plugin you can view details about it such as the point release, rating and description. Most importantly of course, you can install it by simply clicking “Install Now”.

Manual installation

The manual installation method involves downloading our plugin and uploading it to your webserver via your favourite FTP application OR from Admin Area -> Plugins -> Add New and choose ‘Upload Plugin’. The WordPress codex contains instructions on how to do this here.

FAQ

Why SSL is required?

Plugin uses parts of browser that needs SSL to run

Do all users nee to have image attached to login?

No, users that do not have image attached can login, using the normal login form(see the login form for button to switch)

How can I add a image to use it for login?

After logging in, each user can edit it’s profile and add a image that will be used to recognize you when logging in with the plugin functionality.
