This is one of the plugins that always work. I can’t explain why, as I am a layman.
But I know that it has been working flawlessly for the past 4 years for me. Thanks
for the plugin Mr Chirkov. The wordpress search can’t find it by using search words
Simple Login Log, we need to type Simple Login Log by Max Chirkov to get to it.

This is a must have plugin if you build sites for others to use and maintain. Being
able to identify the last user – before things went wrong – cuts time when called
in to sort out any issues.

So simple to install and activate. If you want to know who logs into your account,
this will give you the information. Love it, love it, love it.

 [katie.fritchen](https://profiles.wordpress.org/katiefritchen/) September 3, 2016

Plugin seems to work pretty well, except for the fact that it does not seem to be
picking up people who have opted for the “Remember Me” option on the login page,
which makes it largely useless for my needs.

Lovely, lovely plugin, allowing me access to some very useful information. I really
like the fact you can also track failed logins and see what username they were trying
to use – helps answer some of our website support enquiries! Thank you very much!
