WP Activity Log (Premium)

Many WordPress sites have more than one person logging in, and changes can happen without anyone noticing. When something breaks or looks suspicious, it is hard to say who touched what. WP Activity Log (Premium) records events as they occur, including login attempts, content modifications, plugin activations and changes to user roles, and keeps them in a log you can review later.

The dashboard presents this data in a clear form, with searchable logs and filters to find a specific event. You can set alerts, receive email notifications and generate scheduled reports for stakeholders or record-keeping. Tracking and alerts can be tailored by user role, and the plugin supports WordPress multisite networks, so one person can monitor several sites from a central place.

Features

• User activity tracking: Monitors user actions such as logins, profile updates, password changes and content edits, so you can tell who did what and when on your site.
• Real-time alerts and emails: Sends notifications when suspicious events or critical changes occur, so you can respond to security concerns without checking the logs by hand.
• Searchable audit logs: Detailed logs come with filtering options, which helps you find specific activities quickly when troubleshooting or preparing for a compliance audit.
• Role-based monitoring: Tailor tracking and alerts to user roles, so sensitive areas are watched closely without filling the log with unnecessary entries.
• Customizable scheduled reports: Generate detailed activity reports and schedule them, either to keep stakeholders informed or to maintain records of what happened on the site.
• Security plugin integration: Works with popular WordPress security plugins, so activity data can support the wider defense strategy you already have in place.
• Multisite support: Supports WordPress multisite networks and allows centralized monitoring across multiple sites from one place.
• Data privacy options: Supports GDPR compliance with sensitive data masking and secure log storage options for sites that handle personal information.
