User Login Notifier for WordPress

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   I have the plugin set to just write an email to the admin when someone successfully logs in. However, when I log in as admin for trial I don’t get an email sent as information about my login. I also tried setting it to send an email to the person who logged in, again I don’t get an email as user this time. In addition, I have entered another receiving address for the mails to prevent the error of the admin email address. This was also no success. So uninstalled again. Too bad.

   This is a beautiful little plugin that does a ‘simple’ thing very well. Notifies you when users log in to your site or continually fail to log in. Optionally, you can send emails to your users about logins. For example, to warn them that someone is trying to log in to their account. I tested it but turned it off because I personally monitor this on behalf of my users. If they repeatedly fail to log in I contact them to help. Fantastic for testing or for monitoring whether your users are having problems. Now, here’s my warning. Make sure that all of your email addresses and WordPress mail settings are correct. It’s not the developer’s fault if you haven’t sorted that first! Brilliant, thank you!
