Pull requests welcome. Please see [issues reported](https://github.com/fjarrett/prevent-concurrent-logins/issues) there before going to the plugin forum.** == Frequently Asked Questions == = Where are the options for this plugin? = This plugin does not have a settings page. Simply put, I don't like bloating my plugins with a bunch of options. Instead, I try to develop functionality using the 80/20 principle so that for 80% of use cases you all you need to do is activate the plugin and it "just works". For the other 20% of you who want things to behave differently there are hooks available in the plugin so you can customize default behaviors. = Can I still allow concurrent logins for certain users? = Yes, simply add this code to your theme's `functions.php` file or as an [MU plugin](http://codex.wordpress.org/Must_Use_Plugins):
function my_pcl_whitelist_user_ids( $prevent, $user_id ) {
$whitelist = array( 1, 2, 3 ); // Provide an array of whitelisted user IDs
return in_array( $user_id, $whitelist ) ? false : $prevent;
}
add_filter( 'pcl_prevent_concurrent_logins', 'my_pcl_whitelist_user_ids', 10, 2 );
Or this code to bypass users with certain roles:
function my_pcl_whitelist_roles( $prevent, $user_id ) {
$whitelist = array( 'administrator', 'editor' ); // Provide an array of whitelisted user roles
$user = get_user_by( 'id', absint( $user_id ) );
$roles = ! empty( $user->roles ) ? $user->roles : array();
return array_intersect( $roles, $whitelist ) ? false : $prevent;
}
add_filter( 'pcl_prevent_concurrent_logins', 'my_pcl_whitelist_roles', 10, 2 );
