Limit Username to one login at a time

[fletj]

Once a member is logged in using their unique Username/Password, is there a way to prevent anyone else using that same Username/Password to login?

WordPress and Simple Membership allow any number of members to use one Username/Password concurrently. I would like to restrict some membership levels to disallow multiple logins on the same Username/Password. I have a different membership level for groups of people where I want a single Username/Passwords to be used by more than one person at a time.

Ideally, there would be a group system that allows a parent-user with a parent username and password, and lots of child-users below them with the same username but with indidual passwords, but Simple Membership doesn’t cater for that (at present).

Hi there,

I wondered how you were getting on with this, especially as there seems to be a similar request:

Note that I would only want to limit access to certain membership levels. I would definitely want some of the membership levels to allow multiple use of the Username/Password.

Many thanks,
JohnF

Hi John, the developer in the URL you mentioned above says that this feature will be added in the future. I am not sure when that will be but it will be done 😉

Kind regards

Many thanks.

I just wanted to be sure that your developer,if he is able to, makes this an option, not mandatory.

Cheers,
JohnF

I found this plugin worked perfectly for me – https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-bouncer/
I needed to allow any user to be only logged into one computer / session / browser
