Es lo que estaba buscando para ver cuándo entran mis alumnos al sistema.

Added just the info I needed

I needed to know when users most recently logged in to the site. That’s what this plugin offered, with no extra stuff.

Works

I like this plugin as it keeps track of logins in a very simple way. I used it in conjustion with “Show modified Date in admin lists” to keep track of what users are doing.
