<h4>Adminify Activity Logs: Free WordPress User Activity Log</h4>
<p><strong>Adminify Activity Logs</strong> records every change made inside the WordPress dashboard. Who did what, when, and from which IP. Built for site owners and agencies who want a clean audit trail without paying for a premium tier or installing a heavy security suite. Everything in this readme is in the free plugin. No locked filters, no upsell modal, no nag screens.</p>
<p>➡️ <a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?&utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Explore More</a> | 📖 <a href="https://wpadminify.com/docs/activity-logs/al-installation?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Documentation</a> | 💬 <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/adminify-activity-logs/" rel="ugc">Support</a></p>
<p><strong>Why run a WordPress activity log</strong></p>
<p>If you don’t know who deactivated that plugin or deleted that post, you can’t tell a mistake from a security incident. Activity logs answer who-did-what-when. Any WordPress site with more than one person in the dashboard eventually needs one. Agency builds, membership sites, and multi-author blogs all run into the same problem: someone made a change, nobody owns up, and you spend an afternoon working out what happened. An audit trail saves that afternoon.</p>
<h4>What Adminify Activity Logs does that the others don’t</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Free with no Pro tier upsell</a>:</strong> Every filter, every retention setting, and every detail view ships in the free plugin. Other activity log plugins lock IP tracking or longer retention behind a paid plan.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Real-time logging</a>:</strong> Activities appear in the log as soon as they happen. No cron, no batch delay.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">IP address tracking</a>:</strong> Each entry records the source IP. Useful when you’re investigating a login or a change you didn’t expect.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Time, role, user, component, and action filters</a>:</strong> Narrow the log by time frame (today, yesterday, week, month), user role, specific user, WordPress component (Post, Plugin, Theme, etc.), or action type (Updated, Deleted, Activated).</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Configurable retention</a>:</strong> Default is 30 days. Bump it up if you need a longer compliance window. Bring it down if database size is tight.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Searchable records</a>:</strong> Find a specific change by user, action, or keyword without scrolling.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Multisite compatible</a>:</strong> Works across WordPress network installations.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://wpadminify.com/activity-logs?utm_source=wordpressorg&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=adminify-activity-logs" rel="nofollow ugc">Built by Pixar Labs</a>:</strong> Same team that ships WP Adminify, Admin Bar Editor, Master Addons, and Loginfy.</li>
