About User Last Visit
From the official readme · v1.0Description
The plugin keeps record in UNIX timstamp format of the last time each logged in user visits the site. Record for each user is directly
visible on the users list table in the admin panel. The plugin also provides some utility function and hook.
Function Description
user_last_visit( $user_id = "current", $verbose = TRUE );
-
Parameters :
- mixed
$user_id, the user ID or “current” for the current user (logged in user). default: “current”. - bool
$verbose, ifTRUEthe result returned is a literal expression of the last visit time. default:TRUE.
- mixed
-
Returned value :
If $verbose is TRUE a string is returned. If $verbose is FALSE the UNIX timestamp of last visit is returned. When the user is not logged in, or when there is no record yet, the function return FALSE if $verbose is set to FALSE, a string if $verbose is TRUE.
Filter Hook
"ulv-can-record" : located in "./includes/user-last-visit.class.php" around line #24
Some users or some pages can be excluded for last visit recording. There is an admin page for that. But you can also add some additional filtering via this hook. This filter hook is applied within a wp_loaded action. So you must attach your functions before that (typically on init, once the user is authenticated).
You can eventually use the User_Last_Visit class separately in your theme/plugin.
