Stop account sharing and stay in control. Limit Active Logins is the Joomla! extension that lets you restrict the number of simultaneous logins per user, user group, country, or device.
Prevent login abuse, view live sessions, and customize login limits based on your needs - all from a clean, flexible admin panel.
📌 Ideal for membership sites, eLearning platforms, and any Joomla! project where user access matters.
from 10.000+ users
The user can see the already logged in devices & browsers and also, sign out – while the session will still be active. Take the image as an example. Here, the user sees that there are 4 signed-in devices (laptop, desktop, smartphone – any mobile device), the browser, the location, the time of logging in, and can sign out from any device.
There’s a login failed message when the maximum number of active logins set by the Admin is reached. Say, the user logs in with Google Chrome and then attempts to log in with Firefox, while the Admin has set 1 as the limited number of active logins for this account. In this case, the user will see the error message, but can logout from one device to login from another device.
With access to the backend, the Admin cannot only view information about the users but also take some action. The Admin can see the sessions of the logged in users and info, such as the IP address, the browser, the country, the operating system.
If there’s a need to force logout a user, it takes a click.
With WEB357’s plugin “Login as User for Joomla!”, the Admin can login as user to the frontend of a website – it also takes a click.
What can the Admin do?
1. Maximum Active Logins: set the limit active logins for each account. If it’s 1, the user can login from only 1 device/browser.
Attention: the session may be active even if the browser closed.
2. Login Logic:
a. Block: Block a new login if the maximum limit is reached. The user sees an error message and can login after logging out from another device.
b. Allow: Allow a new login by terminating the previous session when the limit is exceeded.
c. Custom error message: Write a message to guide the user during a login failure.
The Admin can customize the limits per condition – hence, set different max active logins as per need based on features, like user groups, continents, countries, etc. For example:
• User groups (manager, administrator, super users) can login from 15 different devices.
• Registered users in Asia and Africa can login from 2 devices simultaneously.
• Registered users from around the globe can login from 6 devices at the same time.
