Sessions is a powerful sessions manager for WordPress with a multi-criteria sessions limiter and full analytics reporting about logins, logouts and account creation. It relies on the standard WordPress sessions manager and add it extra features and controls.
You can limit concurrent sessions, on a per role basis for the following criteria:
<ul>
<li>count per user;</li>
<li>count per IP adresses;</li>
<li>count per country (requires the free <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/ip-locator/" rel="ugc">IP Locator</a> plugin);</li>
<li>count per device classes and types, client types, browser or OS (requires the free <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/device-detector/" rel="ugc">Device Detector</a> plugin).</li>
</ul>
For each roles defined on your site, you can also block login based on private/public IP ranges, and define idle times for sessions auto-termination.
You can also set a maximum number of IPs used for each user – useful to limit credential sharing between many people.
Sessions can report the following main items and metrics:
<ul>
<li>KPIs: login success, active sessions, cleaned sessions, active users, turnover and spam sessions;</li>
<li>active and cleaned sessions details;</li>
<li>users and sessions variations;</li>
<li>moves distribution;</li>
<li>login/logout breakdowns;</li>
<li>password resets;</li>
</ul>
Sessions supports a set of WP-CLI commands to:
<ul>
<li>manage WordPress active sessions (list, kill) – see <code>wp help sessions active</code> for details;</li>
<li>toggle on/off main settings – see <code>wp help sessions settings</code> for details;</li>
<li>modify operations mode – see <code>wp help sessions mode</code> for details;</li>
<li>display sessions and accounts statistics – see <code>wp help sessions analytics</code> for details.</li>
</ul>

The plugin is overly complex (I like my plugins to do just one thing) and puts two top level items in the wordpres menu.

Also relies on javascript and ajax so it is not parrticularly robust


Just do one job and do it simply and dont take over the admin and I´d be happy to give 5 stars

I want to love this plugin BUT

Powerful sessions manager for WordPress with sessions limiter and full analytics reporting capabilities.
