描述
Bat Activity Log helps site owners and administrators understand what changed, who changed it, and when it happened.
The plugin records activity across users, content, media, comments, plugins, themes, settings, updates, privacy workflows, and other core WordPress operations. Logs are stored in a custom indexed table for fast filtering and large datasets.
Key features
- Track logins, logouts, failed logins, profile changes, registrations, role changes, and password updates.
- Record post, page, media, comment, taxonomy, menu, widget, and settings activity.
- Monitor plugin, theme, and WordPress update activity.
- Filter logs by event type, action, severity, user, object, IP address, and date range.
- Use saved views, quick filters, bulk actions, CSV export, and a structured log detail drawer.
- Configure retention cleanup, privacy controls, alert rules, and scheduled reports.
- Verify log integrity with a tamper-evident hash chain.
- Use WP-CLI commands for stats, cleanup, export, repair, reporting, benchmarking, and integrity verification.
Event coverage
Bat Activity Log currently covers:
- User authentication and account events
- Content and revision events
- Media library activity
- Comment activity
- Plugin and theme lifecycle events
- Core, update, and database upgrade events

常见问题
-
Does the plugin create its own database table?
-
Yes. Bat Activity Log stores log rows in a custom
{prefix}bat_activity_logtable with indexes for efficient filtering, pagination, cleanup, and integrity verification. -
Can I control how long logs are stored?
-
Yes. You can define retention days in Settings and run cleanup manually from the Tools screen or WP-CLI.
-
Does uninstall remove all data?
-
Only if you explicitly enable “Delete plugin data on uninstall” in Settings.
-
Can I disable some log types?
-
Yes. You can disable modules and exclude selected roles or event groups to reduce noise.
-
Does this plugin use Composer?
-
No. It ships with a custom PSR-4-style autoloader and does not require Composer in production.
