Login History
=============
Presentation
------------
LemonLDAP::NG allows one to store user logins and login attempts in
their persistent session.
Users can see their own history in menu, if menu module
``Login history`` is enabled.
Session history is always visible in session explorer for
administrators.
Configuration
-------------
This feature can be enabled and configured in Manager, in
``General Parameters`` » ``Plugins`` » ``Login History``.
You can define how many logins and failed logins will be stored.
A login is considered as successful if user get authenticated and is
granted a session; as failed, if he fails to authenticate or if he is
not allowed to open a session. In other cases which result on
impossibility to authenticate user, to retrieve data or to create a
session, nothing is stored.
* **Max successful logins count**: How many successful logins should be remembered in the history
* **Max failed logins count**: How many failed logins should be remembered in the history
* **Session data to store**: additional session variables to store in the history. *Key* is the variable (or macro) name, *Value* is the title of the column used when displaying the field. Use ``__hidden__`` to store a variables without displaying it to the user.
By default, login time and IP address are stored in history, and the error
message prompted to the user for failed logins. It is possible to store any
additional session data. For example to store authentication, add a new key
``_auth`` with value ``Authentication mode``.
To allow the Login History tab in Menu, configure it in
``General Parameters`` > ``Portal`` > ``Menu`` > ``Modules`` (see
:ref:`portal menu configuration<portalmenu-menu-modules>`).
You can also display a check box on the authentication form, to allow
user to see their login history before being redirected to the protected
application (see
:ref:`portal customization<portalcustom-other-parameters>`).
