Registration Date Column

Adds a joined-on date to the Users list so you can spot new signups and sort accounts by when they arrived.

Overview

See when each WordPress account was registered directly from the Users screen. Registration Date Column adds a sortable Registered column using the account’s existing WordPress registration value, so older and newer accounts can be reviewed together without opening individual profiles.

The date and time follow your site’s configured formats, and missing or invalid values display a dash rather than an invented date. The module does not change account creation dates or store a second copy in user metadata. Registration Date Column is a Free module with no settings to configure.

Sort Users by Registration Without Changing Their Records

Compare Registration With the Last Recorded Login

Account creation and account use are different events. Registration Date Column answers when WordPress records the account as registered, while Last Login Column shows the latest successful login it has captured. Viewing them together can give administrators more context during onboarding or a staff-access review. For example, a recently created account with a recorded login tells a different story from an older account for which no supported login has yet been captured.
The columns have different historical limits. Registration dates come from existing WordPress account records, whereas Last Login Column begins recording supported login events when it is active and does not backfill previous sign-ins. A Never label in the login column should therefore not be used to erase or reinterpret the registration date. Together they provide two useful reference points, not a complete activity history or an automatic account-cleanup policy.

Use Cases

  • New Account Reviews
    See recently registered accounts alongside their normal WordPress user details.
  • Agency Handovers
    Review stored account creation dates when taking over administration of a client website.
  • Team Administration
    Compare older and newer staff accounts before making your own access-management decisions.
  • Onboarding Context
    Read registration dates together with recorded login dates while keeping the two events distinct.
