<p>This plugin is not affiliated with WP Forms, makers of the WP Mail SMTP plugin. Please do not bother them with support requests.  It is a 3rd party solution to the lack of logging in the free version of their product.</p>
<p>Please bear in mind that future updates to WP Mail SMTP may break this plugin’s ability to log messages, and it may take some time for an update to be released. If they go out of their way to remove the WordPress Action Hook it depends on then an update may not be possible at all. Please use this plugin at your own risk.</p>
<p>This plugin has only been tested with the SMTP configuration, and not any of the other implementations provided by WP Mail SMTP. If you use it with another configuration I would be interested in hearing about you experience so that I can either confirm here that it works or make changes so that it will.</p>

<p>LogStore can be used to log (important) data from within your plugin.<br />
It provides a simple interface to log entries and a friendly administration interface for viewing and managing the log entries.</p>
<p>While LogStore can be used to log debug output or system events, it’s main intention is to log more extensive data, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>system emails sent your users</li>
<li>data received from remote API calls</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>To use LogStore in your plugin, add the following line to your plugin’s ‘plugins_loaded’ callback function:</p>
<pre><code>if (class_exists('LogStore')) $this->log = new LogStore('slug', __('Title'));
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>The ‘slug’ should be a unique identifier for your logger.</li>
<li>The ‘Title’ will be the title used in menu entries, options and page titles.</li>
</ul>
<p>Once that’s done you can then start logging your data from anywhere within your plugin by using the following:</p>
<pre><code>if (!empty($this->log)) $this->log->log(__('My log message'), $my_log_data, 'status', 'tag');
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>‘My log message.’ is any arbitrary message to describe your log entry.</li>
<li>$my_log_data is the extended data you want to log. This can be either an array or string.</li>
<li>‘status’ is one of ‘none’, ‘ok’, ‘warn’, ‘critical’ or ‘fatal’.</li>
<li>‘tag’ can be any kind of singular tag to  further classification to your log entries.add</li>
</ul>
<p>If you use LogStore in your plugin, you should check for it’s presence in</p>
<ul>
<li>your ‘plugins_loaded’ callback</li>
<li>your plugin activation callback</li>
</ul>
<p>You should either make LogStore use optional or notify the user that they need to install LogStore for your plugin to work properly.</p>
<h3>Plugin Hooks</h3>
<p>In the following hooks, <code>*myname*</code> stands for the name with which you instanciated the LogStore class.</p>
<h4>Action Hooks</h4>
<ul>
<li><code>logstore_init-*myname*</code> – runs during the execution of WP’s <code>init</code> action hook, passes a single boolean parameter indicating if logging is active or inactive for this logger</li>
</ul>
<h4>Filter Hooks</h4>
<ul>
<li><code>logstore_new_entry-*myname*</code> – runs during the creation of a new entry, passes a single array containing all values for that entry (‘time’, ‘message’, ‘data’, ‘status’ and ‘tag’)</li>
<li><code>logstore_entry-*myname*</code> – runs before displaying an entry on screen, passes a single array containting all values for the entry (‘time’, ‘message’, ‘data’, ‘status’ and ‘tag’)</li>
<li><code>logstore_format_entry_data-*myname*</code> – runs before displaying the formatted data on screen, passes the formatted data as string</li>
</ul>
<h3>Further Notes</h3>
<p>Please note that the ‘bulk actions’ in the log viewer are currently not<br />
working.</p>
