    Hello,
    Thanks for this great plugin!

    I got a question for you:
    I set a range of IPs for a specific username, it works just fine.

    What does it happen when a device (laptop or smartphone) exits from this range?
    Does the browser continue to navigate logged-in or not?

    Thanks,
    Leonardo

    Hi,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    This plugin just creates the session with WordPress and the session is eventually managed by WordPress.

    I just tested the scenario you mentioned and WordPress itself does not destroy the session when the IP is changed hence when the device exits from the specified IP range the browser will continue to navigate as logged in.

    Once the user will logout, the plugin will not login the user again since the new IP is not allowed in the IP ranges.

    Let us know if you have any questions.
