Extension:LoginNotify/en

The LoginNotify extension notifies you when someone logs into your account. It can be configured to give warnings after a certain number of failed login attempts (The number is configurable, and can be different between unknown IPs/devices and known IPs/devices). It can also give notices (which can also be emailed) for successful logins from IPs you don't normally use. It can optionally integrate into the extension in order to determine if the login is from an IP address you don't normally use. It can also set a cookie to try and determine if the login is from a device you normally use.

Installation
This extension requires the Echo extension to be installed. This extension can optionally integrate with the CheckUser extension if it is installed, but does not require it.

If and  are installed, it will check the IP not only for the current wiki, but also the ten wikis where the user is most active.

Configuration
