About this tool.
TW Login Alert & Tracker is a lightweight yet powerful plugin designed to help administrators monitor login activity and enhance site security. It automatically tracks every user login and saves the date/time to their profile. A new “Last Login” column appears in the WordPress Users list, helping you quickly view user activity. The plugin also sends real-time email notifications to the site administrator each time a user logs in, including when the admin logs in. You now have full control over these alerts with a dedicated Settings page where you can enable or disable email notifications as needed. No configuration is required on activation. However, the Login Alert Settings page (under Settings ) gives you the flexibility to toggle notifications anytime.

Privacy / External Service
This plugin can optionally connect to an external support service operated by Technology Wisdom.
The service is used to provide in-plugin support messaging, feedback forwarding, announcements, and connection status for opted-in sites.
Opt-in consent (required before any connection):
When you activate the plugin, an admin notice asks whether you want to allow the support connection. You can choose Allow Support Connection or No Thanks .
If you allow the connection, the plugin may send: site URL, site name, admin email, plugin name/version, WordPress version, and PHP version. Support requests and review/feedback details are sent only when you submit those forms. The plugin may also check weekly for announcements from Technology Wisdom.
While the connection is enabled, the plugin may also report a connection status to the portal so we can tell whether the site is Active , Deactivated , Disconnected , or Deleted . Status is only sent after you opt in.
If you decline (or never accept), that data is not sent to the support portal. The plugin’s core feature continues to work normally without the connection.
You are never required to allow the connection to use the plugin.
You can disconnect the support connection at any time from the plugin’s Support page by choosing Disable priority support . After you disconnect, the plugin stops sending status updates, support traffic, and announcement checks.
Support and rating forms also include their own consent checkboxes before site information is included with a submission.
Please review the service Terms of Use and Privacy Policy before enabling the connection.

Frequently asked questions.
Will this plugin notify the admin when any user logs in?
Yes. If enabled, every successful login triggers an email alert to the admin, including their own login.
Are email notifications enabled by default?
Yes, email alerts are enabled by default when the plugin is activated. You can disable them anytime via the settings page.
Can I turn off email notifications?
Absolutely. Navigate to TW Login Alert & Tracker → Settings, and simply uncheck the option to stop receiving login email alerts.
What does the “Login Alert Settings” page do?
This page lets administrators enable or disable email notifications for user logins. When enabled (default), an email alert is sent to the site admin on every login. Disabling the checkbox will stop the email alerts, but login tracking will still continue in the background.
Where is the settings page located?
Go to the WordPress admin sidebar and click on TW Login Alert & Tracker → Settings. You can also access it via the “Settings” link under the plugin name on the Plugins page.
Where are the login notification emails sent?
The plugin sends login alerts to the site’s admin email (set in Settings → General).
Does this work with WooCommerce and other user roles?
Yes. It works with any standard WordPress user including WooCommerce customers, editors, etc.
Can I customize the email content?
Not in this version. Email templates will be editable in a future update.
Why do I see empty details in the last login column?
If the last login column shows empty details, it means the user has not logged in since the plugin was activated. The plugin only starts tracking login data after activation, so the user must log in at least once after that the last login date and time will appear.
