Pressable

Does your host not allow basic auth or make it difficult to set up? Try Password Protected. This sets up basic auth for your WordPress site in minutes. You may even add IPs to an allow list so that you are not constantly pestered by the password prompt. This plugin was recommended to me by Pressable, and it's now part of my developer arsenal.

Mailtrap

Sometimes you need to get email working in your dev environments without the headache of setting up PHP’s mailer. WP Mail makes setting up email a straightforward process with its wizard. I like to use Mailtrap.io for email testing. A single testing inbox is free and works with WP Mail with the SMTP settings. Using this plugin will ensure that emails sent from your site, such as password resets, will be delivered.
