Frequently Asked Questions

Will this flood my inbox?

No. The plugin remembers your device (IP address). You only get an email when you log in from a new location or device for the first time.

Does it work with SMTP plugins?

Yes, absolutely. In fact, we recommend using an SMTP plugin (like WP Mail SMTP) to ensure the notification emails don’t end up in the spam folder.

Who gets the email?

The specific user who logged in receives the email at their registered email address. Admins do not get copies of user login alerts (to protect privacy), but can view the IP log in the dashboard.

What if I have a dynamic IP?

If your ISP changes your IP address frequently, you will receive a notification each time it changes. This is normal behavior and ensures you are alerted to *any* change in access point.
