Limit Active Logins per User in Joomla

Limit Active Logins per User in Joomla

One paid account, many people. A course login is shared with friends, or a subscription is used in several offices at once.

Limit Active Logins caps how many devices can stay logged in to one Joomla account. At the limit you choose to block the new login or sign out the oldest one, and you can set different limits for user groups and let office IPs skip them.

The free version includes the limits, group seat caps and the Logged in Users screen. PRO adds rules per user, continent and country, a devices panel for members and your own block message.

Product FAQs
  • Which Joomla versions are supported?

    Joomla 4, 5 and 6, as listed in the requirements. All Web357 Joomla extensions are Joomla 6 ready.

  • What is free, and what is PRO?

    Free: the device limit, Block or Allow, custom limits per user group with an IP whitelist, group concurrent limits, and the Logged in Users screen with Force Logout.

    PRO: limits for a single user, a continent or a country, your own block message, the devices panel with logout buttons, log out everywhere, redirect after login, GeoIP country detection, Gravatar pictures, and 1 year of updates and support.

  • Should I use Block or Allow?

    Block keeps existing sessions and refuses the new one; Allow lets the new login in and signs out the oldest. The FAQ explains which suits which site.

  • A member closed the laptop and now cannot sign in on their phone. What can they do?

    A session can stay active after the browser closes. You can end it from Logged in Users, or in PRO the member can sign out the old device from the devices panel.

  • How is a group limit different from a custom limit for a user group?

    A custom limit caps how many devices each account may use. A group limit caps how many different people from the group may be logged in at once. The FAQ has examples.

  • What happens after my PRO subscription expires?

    PRO keeps working on your sites. You can continue using the version you downloaded, but new releases and support stop until you renew, which you can do at any time from your Web357 account at the current plan prices.
