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:

  • Email Notification on Login
  • Email notification on admin login
  • Kaya Login Notification
  • KolorWeb Access Admin Notification

Unfortunately none of these plugins suited my specific needs:

  • Lightweight, clean and simple
  • Current with latest WordPress
  • No requirement for PHP sessions

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.

Simple Login Notification is developed and maintained by Jeff Starr, 15-year WordPress developer and book author.

More info on installing WP plugins

Configuration

By default, email alerts are sent only when admin-level users log in to your site. To include additional user levels/roles, check out the plugin setting, “User Roles”.

By default, email alerts are sent only to the Administration Email Address (as specified in the WP General settings). To disable sending of alerts to this address, visit the plugin setting, “Default Address”. Important: if you disable sending to the default address, make sure that at least one email address is entered in the setting, “Extra Email”. Otherwise, no email alerts will be sent!

To disable alerts for any user, visit the plugin setting, “Exclude Users”. There you can enter any user IDs that should NOT receive email alerts. Separate multiple user IDs with commas.

To send email alerts to additional email addresses, visit the plugin setting, “Extra Emails”. Separate multiple email addresses with commas.

To disable email alerts for any specific IP address(es), visit the plugin setting, “Exclude IPs”. More information on this below.

Exclude IP address

If you want to exclude an IP address from email alerts, visit the plugin settings > “Exclude IPs”. So if you don’t want to get an email every time you log in, add your IP address to this setting. You can use a free online tool to get your current IP address. If you are unsure, leave this setting blank.

To add an IP address to the “Exclude IPs” setting, you can use any of the following notations:

  • Individual IP address, like 93.184.216.34
  • Sequential range of IP addresses, like 93.184.
  • CIDR range of IP addresses, like 93.184.216.34/24

Important: Separate multiple IP/strings with commas.

Email notifications

Here is an example of what the email notifications (alerts) look like:

Admin logged in at Example Site on February 1, 2026 @ 10:47 pm

LOGIN NAME:    Example User
REQUEST URI:   /wp-login.php
QUERY STRING:  undefined

IP CLIENT:     undefined
IP FORWARD:    undefined
HOST REMOTE:   123.123.123.123
HOST CLIENT:   undefined
HOST FORWARD:  undefined

REFERRER: https://example.com/wp-login.php

Simple is just better sometimes.

A great way to monitor one of the worst ways a site can be hacked. I love the simplicity behind this plug-in. Thanks, Jeff!

Easy to install and configure

Perfect tracking of user login… Easy to install and configure. Took 20 seconds to be up and running. Enough functionalities for my usage. Great !

Excellent, fast and very useful. And that’s just the developer.

Great little plugin. Simple UI and great functionality. Can you implement an option to use the login name in the subject of the email?

Easy to Use, Great Security and Reliable

This plugin is very light with virtually zero impact on performance. Provides peace of mind by alerting you if someone logs in to your site and best of all, the developer is a professional web developer specialising in Web Security and maintains the plugin regularly.

Fantastic plugin that helps with security

Dale Reardon 15 juli 2023
Terrific plugin that works really well. I love how you have added the ability to email additional emails as well. Great security enhancement to know when admins login. Highly recommended.
