Description

A COMPLETE, EASY TO USE & WELL SUPPORTED WORDPRESS ACTIVITY LOG PLUGIN

Want to monitor and track your site activity? Find out exactly who does what on your WordPress website. the Activity Log plugin is like an airplane’s black box that logs every activity in WordPress, and lets you see exactly what people are doing on your site.

  • Like, if someone is trying to hack your site.
  • Or, when a post was published, and who published it.
  • Or, if a plugin was activated/deactivated.
  • Log suspicious admin activity
  • Securing your site by tracking log of all user activity?

Useful, right? Trust us, you won’t understand how you managed your website without it. The plugin is also lightning fast and works behind the scenes, so it doesn’t affect site and admin performance (For optimal performance, we built the plugin so it runs on a separate table in the database).

If you have tens of users or more, you really can’t know who did what. This plugin tries to solve this issue by tracking what users do, and displaying it in an easy to use and easy to filter view on the dashboard of your WordPress site.

With the Activity Log you can log:

  • WordPress – Core Updates
  • Posts – Created, Updated, Deleted
  • Pages – Created, Updated, Deleted
  • Custom Post Type – Created, Updated, Deleted
  • Tags – Created, Edited, Deleted
  • Categories – Created, Edited, Deleted
  • Taxonomies – Created, Edited, Deleted
  • Comments – Created, Approved, Unproved, Trashed, Untrashed, Spammed, Unspammed, Deleted
  • Media – Uploaded, Edited, Deleted
  • Users – Login, Logout, Login has failed, Update profile, Registered and Deleted
  • Plugins – Installed, Updated, Activated, Deactivated, Changed
  • Themes – Installed, Updated, Deleted, Activated, Changed (Editor and Customizer)
  • Widgets – Added to a sidebar / Deleted from a sidebar, Order widgets
  • Menus – A menu is being Created, Updated, Deleted
  • Setting – General, Writing, Reading, Discussion, Media, Permalinks
  • Options – Can be extend by east filter
  • Export – User download export file from the site
  • WooCommerce – Monitor all shop options
  • bbPress – Forums, Topics, Replies, Taxonomies and other actions
  • There’s more, but you get the point…

New! You are now able to get email notifications once an event you have defined (via rules) has occurred. This is useful in cases you must know right away when someone does something on your site. We use it to thwart hacker attempts, for example.

New! Export your Activity Log data records to CSV. Developers can easily add support for custom data formats with our new dedicated Export API.

New! Export your Activity Log data records to Export Personal Data tool (WordPress 4.9.6+) for better GDPR Compliance.

Too Many Errors

September 1, 2020
Plugin brought up a lot of logs that just weren't correct. It said different things had been tampered with but that hadn't happened. Just got people worried. Not sure why, support never answered question.

errors

July 2, 2020
if i open notification settings of this plugin i get Notice: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in /www/htdocs/w01ab825/hotel-erb.de/wp-content/plugins/aryo-activity-log/classes/class-aal-settings.php on line 168 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /www/htdocs/w01ab825/hotel-erb.de/wp-content/plugins/aryo-activity-log/classes/class-aal-settings.php:168) in /www/htdocs/w01ab825/hotel-erb.de/wp-admin/includes/misc.php on line 1282 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /www/htdocs/w01ab825/hotel-erb.de/wp-content/plugins/aryo-activity-log/classes/class-aal-settings.php:168) in /www/htdocs/w01ab825/hotel-erb.de/wp-admin/admin-header.php on line 9

Awesome! Work as expected, thank you!

I also added this check in my theme functions.php, to disable editor access: add_action('admin_menu', function () { if ( !current_user_can('administrator')) { remove_menu_page('activity_log_page'); } }, 999); add_filter( 'aal_init_caps', function () { return array( 'administrator' => array( 'administrator', 'editor', 'author', 'guest' ), ); });

It’s ok, except for custom created users.

April 22, 2020
I can see my (admin's role) activity log fine. I see when I updated, create users, products, etc. But for custom created users (like Data Entry Clerks) this plugin doesn't show anything else aside of when they login and logout.......... which means this is useless for me.

nice plugin but..

April 22, 2020
this plugin is very light and accurate but please add an option to monitor only an specific roles or users thank you
