<p><strong>Capture and log events, metrics and traces on your site. Make WordPress observable – finally!</strong></p>
<p>De-facto standard stack for WordPress observability, <strong>DecaLog</strong> provides reliable and powerful logging, monitoring and tracing features for WordPress core, PHP, database, plugins and themes.</p>
<p><strong>DecaLog</strong> captures events generated by WordPress core, PHP, database, plugins and themes, collates metrics and KPIs and follows traces of the full WordPress execution. It has the ability to enrich these events, metrics and traces with many details regarding their triggering, before storing them in WordPress database or passing them to external services.</p>
<p>If you don’t want to use external services, <strong>DecaLog</strong> provides the tools to leverage all the benefits of observability right in the WordPress admin dashboard. It supports multisite logs delegation and contains many features to help to protect personal information (user pseudonymization, IP obfuscation, etc.).</p>
<p>For a full list of supported – internal or third-party – services please, jump to the official <a href="https://perfops.one/decalog#services" rel="nofollow ugc">supported services list</a>.</p>

DecaLog

Very nice to be able to push certain events to New Relic logs. I can even see Wordfence alerts and user logins coming in which is awesome! 

Great plugin!
