User Actions Log

The User Actions Log provides a global overview of selected activities on your website.

The User Actions Log enables you to monitor whatever changes you and others have made to your website's content and configuration.

When sending of User Actions Log Notification emails is enabled in the User Screen of an Administrator, the Administrator will be immediately notified by email when a change occurs.

See last section of this article for more about User Actions Log Notification Emails.

Open the User Actions Log Screen

User Actions Log Settings

We recommend you choose the options indicated in the image below.

IP Logging is useful to help identify user location.

Logging most events is recommended.

The ones we don't log in our own website are:

• Cache,
• Checkin, and
• Redirects.

Reason: to reduce the number of emails we receive to notify us of logged user actions.

In other words, changes made to website content.

When you change your Super User settings in the Users screen (see next section of this article) to activate the sending of User Actions Log Notification Emails then you will receive an email every time a change is made to website content.

Note: there are some changes which will not be notified.

The format of the Notification Email can be viewed in the Mail Templates screen of your website's Dashboard.

You can also customise the Notification Mail Template in this screen.
