Concurrent users, same login was created by Floyd Simmons
I am using Membership Pro 2.3.0 with my Joomla 2.5 website, and I find that several users may login concurrently/simultaneously with the same login username and password. This defeats much of the value of a premium content subscription for us. We wish to limit the number of users under the same username at one time to a single user, much like Netflix limits their users. I assume this can be accomplished. How can we enable this limitation?

Hi Floyd

Unfortunately, Joomla doesn't have an option to prevent concurrently/simultaneously with the same login username and password

It seems there are some third party plugins which can be used to handle this requirement

extensions.joomla.org/extension/login-one

extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extensi...dvanced-lock-account

Maybe you should check to see whether it could be used

Tuan

OK. If you decide to use any extension, please report it back here so that in case someone has same requirement, they won't have to spend time to search for the proper extension
