WP Login Alerts by DigiP
This is a Security focused plug-in, which will send an email to the Administrator of the WordPress site each time login page is reached. If someone attempts to login, it will also send the user name they tried logging in with, as well as their IP address, User-Agent, Timestamp, and the Referral URL.

If you see multiple attempts to login at times you are not logged on to the site, this means someone is attempting to brute force their way into your site, and you should ban the offending IP address from your site. Especially if they are trying multiple names, or sending them rapidly, one after another.

Frequently asked questions.
I received an email when I tried to login myself. Is this normal?
Yes. Because of the way the plug-in works, it will send an email no matter who it is that tries to login. It will also tell you the username attempted as well.
I have the plug-in enabled, but I am not receiving any emails. Whats wrong?
1 – This could be a few things. Number one, we use the email located in your WordPress dashboard, set under the Settings panel. If this is not the email you have set you wish to be reached at, then you would need to change it in the WordPress Dashboard.
