  • Save IP addresses in logs: If you suspect that someone else has access to your account, you can check your login activity from Login > Active sessions by enabling this. If you enable this, your IP addresses and the date & time of login will be captured. However, this also means your login IP address is kept permanently until you manually wipe the logs.
