Limit number of IP address to usernames

  • Hi,

    I’m running a membership website with video trainings. People can buy a login with Woocommerce and after payment they get into the membership area.

    Sometimes if someone has bought a training, he/she shares the login code with someone else. Or he paste the login on a forum so everyone can see the training.

    Is it possible to limit the number of ip addresses for a userlogin with a plugin? So if a user with ip 1.1.1.1 is logged in, someone with a different ip address can’t login? Or with a limit of 3 addresses.

    Thanks!

  • Hi, I currently use s2Member pro for exactly this. You configure restricted access to set the number of IP addresses within a given period. So you might say only one address per month. They have a video for set up.

    I advise upon purchase that this is for “single computer access.”

    This does eliminate your users’ option to access via their cell phones and tablets on the go, as those IPs will constantly change.

    As soon as a user account exceeds the IP limit, they lose access. You can manually clear logged IPs to allow access again.

    I’ve now switched to Woocommerce, though, and have to find another solution since s2Member doesn’t integrate with shopping carts (you configure each individual pay button to include the restricted access).
