    I have a site where jobs are posted from a form and then i get notified via email. My question is quite simple. Is there a way to login to the cp of the site from a url that would be placed in my notification template? Like self-registering or the likes. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I just dont want to have to login to cp every time I get a notification since this section of the site is optimized for mobile.

    Your question is a bit ambiguous. Are “you” the admin? Or a regular user?

    And I know this is silly but, are you not using “Keep Me Logged In”?

    I’m the admin, but the “Keep Me Logged In” is a good stop gap for what I need to do.
    Ultimately I there would be more than one admin. Thank you for the help

    Passing login credentials - especially admins - around via email is IMHO asking for trouble. Yes, logging in is a brief pain. But being hacked could wreck a career 😊
