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.
