A beautiful plugin.
A idea (if it’s possible) can be send email to admin when user login.

That’s a great idea Marco. I’ll add it as an option along with logging IP addresses to the next version.

Glenn, e-mail sending will be great.
Something like “Time/Date, Nickname, Name(from wp db), and Email” of a user.

Nice plugin
Maybe you can extend it in this way, that the admin of a blog can activate or deactivate logging of logins on a per user basis.

nice plugin, but, how about show login user ip address?

Would logging all user activity be much more trouble? There is a plugin (Admin Log) that supposedly does the job but does not work properly. Thanks and continue the good work!

I’m logging usernames OK, but the dates are all random days in Feb or March 2013 and the times are all exactly on an hour eg: 12.00.00

Great ideas, everyone. Look for an update before the end of June.

I got the wrong date and times too.

@snoogly
The plugin takes the date from your server’s time.
In the next release I’ll pull in the settings you give WordPress in the admin panel for timezone.

Nice plug-in!
Is it possible to log at least the pages changed by the user, not necessarily the changes made?

Thanks so much for a simple, yet useful plugin. It’s just what I needed.

Hi,
To email admin when a user logs in I’ve added on line 162, just after:
$wpdb->query($sql);
Add:
$message .= __(’Username: ‘) . $wpdb->prepare($username) . “\r\n”;
@wp_mail(get_option(’admin_email’), sprintf(__(’Login Detected’), get_option(’blogname’)), $message);
I’m not a PHP wizard, so I don’t know if that’s the best way to code it, but it works for me.
Didn’t know how to add a time stamp, so if anyone can add this, that would be great.
Cheers!

Plug-in works great.
A couple suggestions:
-Show total number of logins by a user
-Offer option to list by user instead of date: I’m thinking just a list of all users, how many times they have logged in and when their most recent login was.
