<p><strong>Sessions</strong> 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.</p>
<p>You can limit concurrent sessions, on a per role basis for the following criteria:</p>
<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>
<p>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.</p>
<p>You can also set a maximum number of IPs used for each user – useful to limit credential sharing between many people.</p>
<p><strong>Sessions</strong> can report the following main items and metrics:</p>
<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>
<p><strong>Sessions</strong> supports a set of WP-CLI commands to:</p>
<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>

Sessions

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

WP Event Calendar

I really like this plugin! It's super lightweight, yet functional and powerful. It's perfect as a standalone solution, with some custom theme templates, or as a starting point for building a more powerful, streamlined calendar system.



Easy to use, lightweight, magnificant

Very good base for developers. Very extendable and filterable.

This doesn't give you front end calendar, but it takes well care of the management and display of calendar(s) from admin side. Extends WP_List_Table class for calendar views.

Lacks Location as taxonomy, but such can easily be added.

I combine this with Genesis Custom Blocks to make front end views, single event, list and calendars.

Well coded, structured and lightweight for event management

WP Event Calendar is the best way to manage events in WordPress!
