Re: IP Address / User Association

2011-07-27T18:09:55-05:00

question to board members: has anyone used these plugins successfully with wordpress 3.1.x?

so far, "single-user-login" plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sin ... gin/stats/) just doesn't work. it creates a column in users but never updates it when someone logs in. i checked the single php file but couldn't find the problem.

"login only 1 session" plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/log ... ion/stats/). i checked the code and, well, i'm just not comfortable running it on my site (probably because i don't understand it completely).

thanks in advance for any feedback.

No, I don't know, sorry. I'll show it to Jason, though.

The good thing is that those plugins may have that covered for now.

thanks for the clarification, cristian.

does this functionality appear anywhere on the s2member development roadmap?

You can use the Unique IP Restriction to prevent to many from using the same account. WP Admin -> s2Member -> Restriction Options -> Unique IP Access Restrictions

s2Member doesn't have a setting to prevent simultaneous logins to an account, but there may be a plugin that does it. Just searched, maybe one of these:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/lo ... 1-session/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/single-user-login/

*bump*

hi- is there an answer to this question? i'm trying to determine this as well. I've tested logging in with the same username/password from two different PCs at the same time... and I was able to successfully authenticate and use one account for two people simultaneously. this isn't ideal for a subscription-based service like i'm offering.

"Also, is there a setting that would bump a user off if another pc logged in with the same ID? I know Wordpress normally allows concurrent logins."

thanks!

IP Address / User Association

2010-12-16T14:10:21-05:00

Is there a way to associate IP addresses and user names? I have had to bump the unique ID setting from 5 to 20 per month due to two users. I requested they send me the results of whatismyip.com after I reset the IP logs and saw a half dozen similar IPs that had recently accessed the site.

Also, is there a setting that would bump a user off if another pc logged in with the same ID? I know Wordpress normally allows concurrent logins.

Thanks much, learning more everyday and loving this Plugin!
