always works, and now on wp 5.5.1
by zinkab·5 years ago

This is one of the plugins that always work. I can’t explain why, as I am a layman.
But I know that it has been working flawlessly for the past 4 years for me.
Thanks for the plugin Mr Chirkov.

The wordpress search can’t find it by using search words Simple Login Log,
we need to type Simple Login Log by Max Chirkov to get to it.

Just works
by asplash·5 years ago

This is a must have plugin if you build sites for others to use and maintain. Being able to identify the last user – before things went wrong – cuts time when called in to sort out any issues.

Love this plugin
by cecev·9 years ago

So simple to install and activate. If you want to know who logs into your account, this will give you the information. Love it, love it, love it.

Does not track "Remember Me" logins
by katie.fritchen·10 years ago

Plugin seems to work pretty well, except for the fact that it does not seem to be picking up people who have opted for the “Remember Me” option on the login page, which makes it largely useless for my needs.
