Activity Log – Monitor & Record User Changes vs User Activity Tracking and Log

An easy to use, fully supported WordPress activity log plugin. Want to know exactly who does what on your WordPress site? Activity Log works like an airplane’s black box: it quietly records every action in the WordPress admin — and now every request made through the REST API, WP-CLI, WP-Cron, and more — so you always know: If someone is trying to hack your site When a post was published, and who published it If a plugin/theme was activated/deactivated Suspicious admin activity The plugin doesn’t require any setup; it works right out of the box, runs on its own database table so it doesn’t slow down your site, and stays out of your way until you need it. What’s New Request Source Tracking – See exactly where each change came from: the WP Admin, the REST API, WP-CLI, WP-Cron, XML-RPC, or the WP Abilities API, including which Application Password was used. Filter the log by source to quickly spot automated or API-driven changes alongside manual admin activity. Email Logging – Capture all emails sent from your WordPress site for streamlined debugging and compliance. Especially useful for WooCommerce stores tracking order emails alongside other site events. Export to CSV – Export your Activity Log data to CSV, or build support for your own format with our dedicated Export API. Data Privacy and GDPR Compliance – Export or erase log data directly through the WordPress Privacy Tools. If you have more than a handful of users, keeping track of who did what by hand is virtually impossible. Activity Log solves that by tying every action back to the user who triggered it, in an easy-to-filter view right on your WordPress dashboard. With the Activity Log you can record: WordPress – Core updates Posts – Created, updated, deleted Pages – Created, updated, deleted Custom Post Type – Created, updated, deleted Tags – Created, updated, deleted Categories – Created, updated, deleted Taxonomies – Created, updated, deleted Menus – Created, updated, deleted Media – Created, updated, deleted Comments – Created, approved, unapproved, trashed, untrashed, spammed, unspammed, deleted Users – Login, logout, login failed, update profile, registered, deleted Plugins – Installed, updated, activated, deactivated, changed Themes – Installed, updated, deleted, activated, changed (Editor and Customizer) Widgets – Added to sidebar, deleted from sidebar, order widgets Setting – General, writing, reading, discussion, media, permalinks Options – Extended custom settings for 3rd party plugins Export – Exported activity log file Request Source – WP Admin, REST API, WP-CLI, WP-Cron, XML-RPC, WP Abilities, and Application Password name when used WooCommerce – Track products, orders, customers, and more bbPress – Forums, topics, replies, taxonomies, and other actions Emails sent from WordPress site – Sending successful, sending failed There’s more, of course, but you get the point… For each event recorded by the activity log, the following details are also logged: Date and time of occurrence User and user role responsible for the change Source IP address from which the change originated Request source — WP Admin, REST API, WP-CLI, WP-Cron, XML-RPC, or WP Abilities Affected object where the change occurred Data Storage and Performance All events are stored in a dedicated custom database table, keeping the impact on your site’s performance to a minimum — even under heavy traffic.
