Add-ons

Loggedin keeps the core plugin lean and ships extra capabilities as separate, opt-in add-ons. Each one is a small standalone plugin that depends on the free core. When active, an add-on's settings appear on the Loggedin screen itself, as a card on a core page or as a page in the sidebar (or, for Limit Per User, on the profile screen), never in a separate admin menu.

The Add-ons page

Users → Loggedin → More › Add-ons (&tab=addons) lists the first-party add-ons. Each card shows what the add-on does, its state, and a button to get it (anything not active on this site) or manage its license (active premium add-ons). Add-ons need the core Loggedin plugin to be active: each add-on declares Requires Plugins: loggedin, and WordPress refuses to activate them otherwise. The current add-ons need Loggedin 3.0.0 or later; on an older version they activate but do nothing.

The list is fetched from the licensing backend and cached for roughly a day. Refresh list, at the top of the page, fetches it again at once. That's useful right after a purchase or when a new add-on has just been released.

Available add-ons

Add-on	What it does	Where it lives
Active Sessions	List every user with a live session, drill into per-device detail, and sign out single sessions or every session for a user.	Manage › Active sessions page
Real-time Logout	Checks the server at a set interval (every 60 seconds by default) so a tab whose session has ended reloads to wp-login.	Real-time logout card on Login limits
Limit Per User	Override the global session cap for a single user account from the user's profile page.	Login limit section on the profile screen
Limit Per Role	Override the global session cap per WordPress role (admin/editor/subscriber/custom).	Limits per role card on Login limits

Looking for Auto Logout?

Auto logout is free and built into Loggedin since 3.4.0. See Auto Logout.

Update your add-ons for Loggedin 3.4.0

Loggedin 3.4.0 rebuilt its settings screen. Add-ons made for the old screen still work, but their settings can look out of place. If you run Active Sessions older than 1.2.0, or Limit Per Role or Real-time Logout older than 2.2.0, a notice on the Plugins screen and the Loggedin screen lists them, with a link to Dashboard → Updates. The notice is shown to users who can update plugins.

Installing an add-on

Premium add-ons require a license. Our add-ons are sold through Freemius, our reseller, so your purchase, download and license key all live in the Freemius customer portal rather than on foxelabs.com.

After purchase you'll receive an email from Freemius with your license key and a link to the customer portal. To download the add-on:

1. Open the customer portal and log in with the email address you used at checkout. On your first login, use the credentials from the purchase email — you'll be asked to replace the auto-generated password. If you don't have a password, request a login link by email instead.
2. Open the Downloads section and download the add-on's ZIP file.
3. Your license key is shown in the Licenses section if you need it again later.

Then install it like any other WordPress plugin:

1. Go to Plugins → Add New in your WordPress dashboard.
2. Click Upload Plugin, choose the add-on .zip, and click Install Now.
3. Click Activate Plugin.

The add-on is now running. Premium add-ons will work but won't receive automatic updates until a license is activated — see below.

Updates

Once licensed, add-ons follow the standard WordPress update flow — new versions appear under Dashboard → Updates. Deactivating the license stops the site from seeing future updates but does not disable the plugin itself.

Activating a license

Open Users → Loggedin → More › Add-ons. Each card shows the add-on's state at the bottom, with a button next to it:

State	Button	Meaning
Active	—	A free add-on, installed and active on this site.
Active · licensed	Manage license	A premium add-on, active, with a license activated.
Installed · no license	Activate license	A premium add-on, active, but no license key has been activated.
Premium · not installed / Free · not installed	Get add-on	The add-on isn't installed, or is installed but not active. The button opens its page.

For a card showing Installed · no license:

1. Click Activate license. A dialog opens.
2. Paste your license key into the License key field.
3. Click Activate license.

The button shows a busy state while the request runs. On success the dialog closes and the card changes to Active · licensed. If the key is rejected (mistyped, already at its activation cap, expired, and so on), the dialog stays open with The license was not changed and the reason. Fix the key and click Activate license again.

Valid key rejected as invalid?

Loggedin 3.0.0 to 3.3.0 could shorten some valid keys before sending them, so they were rejected as Invalid license key. Update Loggedin to 3.3.1 or later, then activate the key again.

Deactivating a license

If you need to move the license to another site, sell or hand off the site, or just clear an old key:

1. Click Manage license on the licensed add-on's card.
2. Click Deactivate license.

The button shows a busy state while the request runs. While a license is active, the dialog doesn't show the key: deactivate first if you want to use a different one.

Once deactivated, the add-on keeps working on this site (deactivation only stops automatic updates) and the license key is freed up to be activated elsewhere.

Activation limits

Each license carries a configured site activation cap (typically 1, 3, or unlimited depending on the bundle you purchased). Deactivating frees up a slot immediately.

Priority order for limit overrides

When more than one Loggedin limit add-on is active they hook the same filter (loggedin_reached_limit) at different priorities:

Source	Priority
Limit Per Role	10
Limit Per User	11

Per-user > per-role > global. A user with a per-user override always uses that cap regardless of any role-level limit configured for them.

Uninstalling

Deactivating an add-on stops its behaviour and removes its card or page from the Loggedin screen (or, for Limit Per User, its profile field); the core plugin keeps working. Limit Per Role, Limit Per User and Real-time Logout each register an uninstall hook, so deleting one cleans up its stored option (or user meta) and leaves nothing behind. Active Sessions stores nothing on the server; only its table view stays in your browser's localStorage.

Troubleshooting

If a ZIP upload fails or activation throws an error, the most common causes are:

• Loggedin isn't active. Activate the core plugin first, then re-attempt the add-on activation.
• Server upload limit too low. WordPress shows a generic "Link expired" or 413 error when the upload exceeds upload_max_filesize or post_max_size. Increase those limits in your php.ini (or via your host's control panel) and retry.
• Plugin conflict. A small number of host-installed must-use plugins replace Plugins → Add New with a custom flow. If yours does, use that flow to install the ZIP.

Still stuck? Contact support with the add-on name, the WordPress version, and any error message you saw — include your license key in the message so the request is prioritised.
