This plugin is derived from the no longer supported
Wordpress Logging Service.
Despite that it is not compatiple with it, and there is no upgrade path from one
to the other.
Features
- No log entries generated by the plugin itself, all come from external API calls
- Organisation of log entries in freetext categories
- Severity levels
- Freetext log messages
- Entries can be marked as seen and then filtered from being displayed again
- Filtering by minimum severity level
- Sort by date, category, user name, severity or blog name (in Multisite installations)
- Access to the log page can be granted by user role
- Install from Plugins -> Add New
- Or download the .zip and extract to
wp-content/plugins
- Activate the plugin from the Plugins menu. In Multisite installations, feel free
to activate as a network plugin or to leave it to individual blogs.
- Go to Settings -> Custom Logging Service for the next steps
Settings
- Minimum severity for notification: You will see the number of unseen log entries
of that level or above next to the menu entry for the log page.
- Default minimum severity filter: Which severity levels you will see in the log page.
You can change this filter later on the page.
- Roles that can manage Custom Logs: Decide who can see and interact with the log page.
- Log entries per page: Set the number of entries per page.
Generating Log messages
This plugin does not generate any log messages by itself. You need other plugins to
interact with it through the API; see the API section for details.
