WP Last Login

FAQ

Why does the column show an em-dash (—) for all my users?

The plugin records a login when a user signs in after it’s been activated. WordPress doesn’t store historical login data, so existing accounts will start populating their « Last Login » the next time each user logs in. Hovering the dash shows a tooltip explaining the same.

How do I change the date format or show the time?

The date follows your site’s general date format (Settings → General); the exact time appears on hover. To override the date format, use the wpll_date_format filter:

add_filter( 'wpll_date_format', function() {
    return 'Y-m-d H:i';
} );

How do I hide the column from non-admin users?

Filter wpll_current_user_can and return a capability check. Login tracking still happens — only column visibility is gated:

add_filter( 'wpll_current_user_can', function() {
    return current_user_can( 'manage_options' );
} );

Does it work with multisite, Two Factor, WooCommerce, BuddyBoss, or social login plugins?

Yes. The plugin hooks into WordPress’s standard wp_login action, so any login method that triggers it is captured. The Two Factor plugin (which interrupts wp_login) is supported via a dedicated hook.

What happens to my data if I deactivate the plugin?

Deactivating leaves stored login timestamps intact, so reactivating preserves history. Uninstalling (deleting the plugin entirely) removes all of the plugin’s user meta.
