Creates a log file for network/multisite super admin actions.
The following actions are logged for Super Admin users. WordPress action names are listed in parenthesis:
<ul>
<li>change network settings (update_site_option)</li>
<li>grant super admin privileges (granted_super_admin)</li>
<li>revoke super admin privileges (revoked_super_admin)</li>
<li>upgrade blog (wpmu_upgrade_site)</li>
<li>add blog (wpmu_new_blog)</li>
<li>set blog archived (archive_blog/unarchive_blog)</li>
<li>set blog deleted (make_delete_blog/make_undelete_blog)</li>
<li>set blog mature (mature_blog/unmature_blog)</li>
<li>set blog spam (make_spam_blog/make_ham_blog)</li>
<li>delete blog (delete_blog)</li>
<li>delete user (wpmu_delete_user)</li>
<li>delete user (deleted_user)</li>
<li>change other user’s settings (edit_user_profile_update) [NOTE: doesn’t show diff]</li>
<li>change blog setting (updated_option) [NOTE: may occasionally log annoyingly large diffs]</li>
</ul>
The following actions are logged for ANY user:
<ul>
<li>login (wp_login)</li>
<li>logout (wp_logout)</li>
<li>new user (user_register)</li>
</ul>
Some actions that change data will show what the value was before and after.
Below is an example of a log entry when the user ‘smith’ has changed the Network site name from “WP Local Network” to “WP Local Networks”:
<pre><code>[Tue, 03 Sep 2013 13:45:49 +0000] [smith:1] [update_site_option] [1] [site_name] [(WP Local Network)->(WP Local Networks)] [127.0.0.1] </code></pre>
Each line in the log file will roughly follow the below example. Individual actions may log slightly different information, but the DATETIME, USERNAME, USER_ID, ACTION, and IP_ADDRESS sections should always be populated.
<pre><code>[DATETIME] [USERNAME:USER_ID] [ACTION] [AFFECTED_OBJECT_ID] [DATA_TITLE_OR_KEY] [(VALUE_BEFORE)->(VALUE_AFTER)] [IP_ADDRESS] </code></pre>

webaware

Log emails to the WordPress database for later analysis. Access is restricted to administrators, and emails with WordPress passwords are obfuscated for security / privacy. Useful for diagnosing lost email problems.
Use this plugin with <a href="https://shop.webaware.com.au/downloads/disable-emails/" rel="nofollow ugc">Disable Emails</a> to divert all WordPress emails into logs, especially handy for developers.
Logs are automatically purged after a defined period, set through a settings page in the WordPress admin. Setting the period to 0 prevents logs from being purged. Uninstalling the plugin purges all logs.

Log Emails

Thanks for a plguin, it was thoroughly coded and seems have all that I need.

Simple and useful plugin

Seriously, this plugin is so freakin' helpful. I work on a lot of sites that I have set up on my local development machine and don't have outgoing email set up on purpose. Only rarely do I need access to test those emails. But when I need it, it's typically urgent. This plugin has completely saved the day multiple times over the past month.

Thank you so much for the great work!

Only sad I didn't find this plugin sooner!

I've checked it's functionality and with first sight, it didn't contained vulnerable parts. Thank you.

compact and free from vulnerabilities
