Jeff Starr

Sends a detailed notification email when admins and other users log in to your site. Choose the user levels/roles for which you would like to receive login notifications. Optionally exclude users and/or IP addresses.
This plugin is useful for keeping an eye on any unauthorized administrator or user logins. Each email alert includes the user name, IP address, user agent, and other details. Very useful for forensic investigations.

Why is this useful?
I use this plugin to keep an eye on any unauthorized login attempts. Probably a bit paranoid but I don’t care, paranoid works well for me.
How is this plugin different?
While researching for this plugin, I found four other “admin login notification” type plugins:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/email-notification-on-login/" rel="ugc">Email Notification on Login</a></li>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/email-notification-on-admin-login/" rel="ugc">Email notification on admin login</a></li>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/kaya-login-notification/" rel="ugc">Kaya Login Notification</a></li>
<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/kolorweb-access-admin-notification/" rel="ugc">KolorWeb Access Admin Notification</a></li>
</ul>
Unfortunately none of these plugins suited my specific needs:
<ul>
<li>Lightweight, clean and simple</li>
<li>Current with latest WordPress</li>
<li>No requirement for PHP sessions</li>
</ul>
So I decided to build my own. Let me emphasize the utter simplicity of this plugin. It does one thing and does it well: sends an email whenever an admin-level user logs in to WordPress. No bells and whistles, no bloat. If you need more functionality, check out the above plugins should get you there.
Privacy
This plugin does not collect or store any user data. It does not set any cookies, and it does not connect to any third-party locations. The only thing this plugin does is send an email for each admin-level login. Each email includes information about the user, such as username, IP address, user agent, and other details.
