202616 releases

  1. Simple History 5.36.0Latest

    • Post edits are easier to read outside the log: Copy as JSON, log files and forwarded events list each changed field with its old and new value. This release also contains security fixes. Screenshots and details in the release post
    • Added
    • Experimental — A short “Updated to Simple History X.Y.Z” line at the top of the log after an update, with how many new features and fixes it brought and a link to the release post. Premium updates get their own line.
    • Experimental — Premium customers see a message on the log page when a subscription payment didn’t go through or the subscription is about to end, and sites with an expired Premium license see what’s new in Premium since their version.
    • Changed
    • Post title, permalink, excerpt and content changes are separate fields with old and new values in the REST API, Copy as JSON and Copy as Markdown. For long posts, only the changed lines of the content are listed.
    • Premium and other add-ons check for updates only when WordPress itself checks for updates, so admin pages no longer wait for simple-history.com.
    • For developers: the simple_history/post_logger/label_for_key filter also gets the status, publish date, comment status, author and template labels of post changes. Labels are escaped, so return plain text.
    • For developers: the simple_history/post_logger/post_updated/diff_table_output filter no longer gets the title, permalink, excerpt, content and other changed fields, only the rows that callbacks add. Post_Logger::extra_diff_record() is deprecated and no longer used.
    • Fixed
    • Similar events didn’t load on sites that use SQLite instead of MySQL with version 2.x of the SQLite Database Integration plugin.
    • Log files written by Log Forwarding → Local Files now include what changed in each event, like the roles added and removed on a profile edit, not only the event message.
    • The one-click weekly email offer and its confirmation now name everyone who will get the email, like the site admin, not only you.
    • Page template changes: the first template picked for a page wasn’t logged, block themes showed the template slug instead of its name, and an extra row labelled “page_template_name” showed next to the Template row.
    • “Check again” on Dashboard → Updates now checks for new versions of Premium and other add-ons right away, instead of up to an hour later.
    • Security
    • Similar events now follow the same access rules as the log, so editors no longer see events like failed logins there.
    • Forwarded IP addresses, usernames and user agents are now capped in length, so a single crafted request can’t fill the log.
    • IP addresses in Limit Login Attempts events are now anonymized and hidden from users who can’t view IP addresses.
    • Plugin and theme file edits are logged only when WordPress accepts the edit.
    • Stealth Mode now also hides events in the REST API and Abilities API, and history links, notices and the command palette, from users outside the allowlist.
    • Hardened database queries and output escaping in the plugin stats and the category and settings events.
    • Line breaks and control characters in event text are escaped in the log file, so they can’t add fake lines or change what a terminal shows.

  2. Simple History 5.35.0

    • This release is about logins and privacy. Logins with two-factor authentication are logged when the code is accepted, IP addresses in the log are only shown to administrators, and there is suggested text about the log for your privacy policy. The weekly email settings got simpler too. Read more abo…
    • Added
    • Suggested privacy policy text for the activity log, under Settings → Privacy → Policy Guide.
    • Support for the Two Factor plugin: logins are logged when the two-factor code is accepted, not when the password is entered, and show whether two-factor authentication was used.
    • Logins on sites using Wordfence show whether two-factor authentication was used, and how: authenticator app, recovery code, passkey or remembered device.
    • Experimental — Emails that WordPress fails to send are logged as errors, and a notice in the sidebar and email settings shows how many failed in the last 30 days.
    • Experimental — WP-CLI events store the command, the server user and, for commands run over SSH, the masked IP address they came from. Nothing is shown in the log yet.
    • Changed
    • Weekly email settings have a “Site admin” checkbox that sends the email to the site’s admin address and follows it when it changes, and adding more recipients no longer stops the email to the admin.
    • IP addresses in the log are shown only to administrators. Editors and other roles that can read the log no longer see them in events, event details, exports or search. The secret RSS feed still shows them.
    • IP addresses are described as masked instead of anonymized, since a masked address can still be linked to a person through the rest of the log entry.
    • XML export events say what was exported (all content or a post type) and show the author, category, date and status filters used, also for past exports.
    • Experimental — Role logger: removing capabilities from a role is a notice instead of a warning, and granting a capability that controls the site (such as manage_options or install_plugins), or creating a role with one, is now a warning.
    • Fixed
    • The IP address of people who comment is now masked like every other IP address in the log, and only administrators can see it. Earlier comment events keep the full address but are hidden from other roles.
    • Core files check no longer reports official WordPress files in the site’s language or in English as modified, such as a German wp-config-sample.php on a site installed in English.
    • Image changes in event details, such as a new featured image, line up with the text changes above them.
    • Event details are easier to read on phones: each label sits above its value, and image thumbnails fit inside their column.
    • Wrong two-factor codes from the Two Factor, Kadence Security (formerly Solid Security) and Wordfence plugins are logged as failed logins.

  3. Simple History 5.34.0

    • Too many events in your log to get an overview? The new compact view may come in handy then. And Premium users get an even more compact view with the new table view, for digging into your events. There is also a new button that hides the sidebar, to give you full focus on the log with less distract…
    • Added
    • Table view for research and debugging sessions: sort, filter, compare two events side by side, and export (Premium).
    • “Hide sidebar” button next to the view switcher, so the event log can use the full width of the page. Each view remembers its own choice: the table view starts without the sidebar, the detailed and compact views with it.
    • Events can now be sorted by date, id, level, logger or event type through the REST API (orderby and order) and on the command line (wp simple-history event list --orderby=id --order=asc).
    • Events can be counted instead of listed through the REST API (/events/aggregate), grouped by date, level, logger or initiator. The same filters apply, so it counts exactly what the list would have shown.
    • Thumbnail on “Edited attachment” events, so you can see which image the event is about.
    • Links on tips in the sidebar and dashboard widget, pointing to the documentation or feature page for what the tip describes.
    • Changed
    • The compact event log view is no longer experimental. The Detailed/Compact switch is now available to everyone from the event log page.
    • Custom field changes on posts name the fields that changed instead of only counting them.
    • Custom field and term changes on posts are included in event details from the REST API and WP-CLI.
    • New installs get a notice a few days before their oldest events are cleared out for the first time. It explains why, mentions that you can export your log, and stays until you close it.
    • Fixed
    • Sorting the event log oldest first now works. order=asc was accepted and then ignored on the default event listing, which returned newest first anyway.
    • The “new events” count above the log now respects your filters. With “Hide my own events” on, or event types hidden, it counted events the list would never show — so it could announce new activity and then show you nothing when you clicked it.
    • Changed post excerpts are labelled “Excerpt” instead of the raw field name.
    • Custom field changes made in the block editor’s meta boxes, like the Custom Fields panel, are now logged.
    • Empty custom fields that some plugins create when a post is first saved are no longer listed as added.
    • Internal keys from Advanced Custom Fields no longer clutter the list of changed custom fields.
    • Tips that mention Premium are hidden on sites that have turned promotional messages off.
    • Image thumbnails on media events name the image for screen reader users.
    • Weekly email with no recipients set was never sent. It now goes to the site admin email until you add recipients, and the settings page tells you so.
    • Test email is sent to the weekly email’s recipients instead of to you, and the button says who that is.
    • Experimental — Role and capability changes a plugin makes on its own, such as after an update, are credited to WordPress instead of whoever was logged in, and name the plugin that made them.
    • Security
    • Database errors from the event log no longer include the database’s own error message in the API response. Reading the log needs a lower capability than most things in WordPress, and a MySQL error names tables and columns.

  4. Simple History 5.33.0

    • The weekly email is redesigned. It opens with a summary of your week, and every number links to its events. Events by WordPress and visitors are no longer credited to the logged-in admin, and Redirection logging works again with Redirection 5.10. And some minor fixes here and there. Read more about…
    • Added
    • Weekly email can now be turned on with one click from the welcome notice, the welcome log entry and the log sidebar (yup, we really like the weekly email, and we think you will too!).
    • Experimental: Compact view for the event log, which fits more events on the screen.
    • Changed
    • Weekly email design updated:
    • wider layout, section icons, clickable numbers linking to matching events, shorter captions and a single “Nothing to report” line for empty sections.
    • now includes a plain-text version, so it’s less likely to end up in spam.
    • opens with a short summary of the week: event count, change from last week, failed logins and most active user.
    • …and closes with a tip.
    • WordPress, WP-CLI, anonymous user and “other” cards link to their events for all users.
    • Repeated edits of the same Simple History setting are grouped into one row.
    • “Similar events” link is now an expand/collapse control that keeps keyboard focus.
    • Event details line up with the event text, and long labels wrap instead of pushing values off-screen.
    • Fixed
    • Redirection plugin events are logged again with Redirection 5.10.0 and later.
    • Events by WordPress or visitors (update checks, failed logins, scheduled tasks) are no longer attributed to the logged-in administrator.
    • Event log loads its first page faster (fixed debounce effect).
    • Loading placeholders and the date dropdown no longer shift while the log loads.
    • Admin bar quick view shows a message when events can’t be loaded.
    • Security
    • Redirection events can no longer be added to the log by users without permission to manage redirects.

  5. Simple History 5.32.0

    • Expandable diffs, a “View revision” link that opens the exact revision a change created, and a fix for failed application password logins flooding the log. Read more about it in the release post
    • Added
    • Long diffs can be expanded in place with an “Expand diff” button.
    • Note events carry the same action links as the page or post the note belongs to.
    • Experimental — “Hide events of this type” in an event’s actions menu removes that event type from the current list. Hidden types show as removable chips above the list and never change what gets logged.
    • Changed
    • Post and page events link to the revision the change created, labelled “View revision”. On WordPress 7.1 and later it opens the editor’s visual revision view.
    • Site icon changes show the old and new icon as images, side by side, instead of attachment IDs.
    • Action links below events are grey until the event is hovered or focused, and separated by a dot in the dashboard widget.
    • When a license key has reached its activation limit, the settings page explains why and how to free it up from the Lemon Squeezy “My orders” page.
    • Experimental — Event fields sent to AI tools through the WordPress Abilities API carry readable labels and descriptions, following the output schema conventions added in WordPress 7.1.
    • Fixed
    • Relative times (“2 minutes ago”) could be off by the site’s UTC offset.
    • “Copy event message” and “Copy as Markdown” copied the site’s time instead of the time shown in the log.
    • Content diffs use the same green and red as WordPress core’s revision screen. Some events used a different set.
    • “Edited your profile” events no longer appear when nothing changed. The block editor saves editor preferences to your user record, and each save was logged as a profile edit.
    • Notes inside a block (WordPress 7.1) no longer show a literal <br> tag, and a note starting with an @mention no longer has it glued to the next word.
    • Reaction emoji no longer show as broken images when the site’s emoji image host is unreachable.
    • Failed application password logins are throttled, grouped, filtered and counted like other failed logins. A brute-force attack against the REST API could previously flood the log.
    • Featured image changes on posts no longer show raw “thumb_id” and “thumb_title” rows, show “None” on the empty side, load small thumbnails, and are included in the structured event details.
    • Uploading a zip over an installed theme or plugin is logged as an update, downgrade or reinstall, instead of as a new install.
    • Security
    • Misc security hardening.

  6. Simple History 5.31.0

    • 🎨 Site Editor changes are now logged — templates, template parts, site-wide styles, patterns, navigation menus and fonts. This release also adds support for the official WordPress AI plugin, so you can see which plugins and themes have been granted access to which AI providers, plus a round of secu…
    • Added
    • Site Editor changes are now logged: templates, template parts, site-wide styles, patterns, navigation menus and fonts, including changes made outside the block editor. Resetting a template to the theme default is logged as a reset, not a deletion.
    • Support for the official WordPress AI plugin: Simple History now logs when AI features are enabled or disabled, when a feature’s AI provider or model is changed, and when plugins or themes request, are granted, or lose access to AI providers on the Connector Approvals screen. API keys and AI prompt…
    • --format=json and --format=yaml on wp simple-history info, so a deploy or CI script can check that Premium is active and licensed.
    • Experimental — Activity log is now available to AI tools and automation through the WordPress Abilities API (WordPress 6.9+). Read-only — nothing exposed can change or delete log entries.
    • Changed
    • Tested on WordPress 7.1.
    • Theme update events now name the version the theme went from and to, the way plugin update events already did.
    • Experimental — Role events no longer list every capability in the details panel when there are more than 10; the count stays in the event message and the full list in the event context.
    • Fixed
    • “Deleted user” events showed a blank id, email and login instead of the details of the removed user.
    • Personal data export requests were logged whatever their status, not only when newly requested.
    • wp simple-history info never showed the license line on sites with Premium active.
    • Event counts are now grouped for your locale — “187 304 events” rather than “187304 events” — in the log header, the stats bar, pagination and grouped-event counts.
    • Backfill notice showed a stray &nbsp; in its item counts on locales that separate thousands with a space.
    • “Today” and “Yesterday” date dividers, and the “Today” label on each event, switched over at UTC midnight instead of your own midnight, so recent events could show the wrong day.
    • Welcome notice shown after install no longer appears on the history page it links to, so its “Take a look” link always goes somewhere.
    • Log now shows the real reason it failed to load instead of “Unknown error” — on most sites every error detail was being discarded before it reached the screen.
    • Database errors while loading the log now name the problem, so you can act on it or pass it to your host.
    • Security
    • Comment content is escaped before it reaches the event details panel, so a comment can no longer put markup into the log.
    • RSS feed no longer breaks when logged content contains the ]]> character sequence, which anyone able to leave a comment could trigger.
    • Colour values from the theme customizer are validated before being drawn as a swatch, so a theme with a permissive colour setting cannot inject CSS into the log.
    • CSV exports treat tab and carriage return as formula triggers, alongside the =, +, - and @ already covered.
    • Additional escaping and input validation across the options, theme and media loggers.
    • Referring URL stored with every event now has secret-looking query string values masked, the way Detective Mode already masked the URLs it stores.
    • Masking now also covers session, bearer, credentials and private key field names.

  7. Simple History 5.30.0

    • 👍 Two experimental features graduate in this release: event reactions and the header status bar, which shows the status of your current settings at a glance — how long history is kept, whether email reports and alerts are on, and where logs are forwarded. This release also includes a round of secur…
    • Added
    • “Plugin info” action link on plugin update-available events, so you can quickly check what an unfamiliar plugin is without leaving the log.
    • “Find events from the same IP address” in an event’s actions menu, alongside the existing user and event-type filters.
    • Changes to more Simple History settings are now logged: Email Reports, the Experimental features toggle, and add-on license keys (key values are never stored in the log). (And yes – it was a bit funny that the plugin that logs changes to other plugins didn’t log its own settings changes!)
    • WP-CLI: --metadata_search and --ai_only options on wp simple-history list, matching the metadata search and AI filter in the GUI.
    • WP-CLI: AI attribution columns (ai_agent, ai_detected_via, ai_application) on wp simple-history list, showing which AI tool made a change and how it was detected.
    • Header now shows “Stealth mode: on” while stealth mode is hiding Simple History from other users, including other administrators.
    • Changed
    • Reactions graduated from experimental and are now on by default — react to events with a 👍 (disable in Settings → General). Premium adds ❤️ 🎉 🚀 and more reaction types.
    • Header settings/info bar is graduated from experimental and now shows for all admins — a glance at how long history is kept, whether email reports and alerts are on, and where logs are forwarded, with each one linking straight to its setting.
    • Checkbox settings now show as On/Off (instead of 1/0) in the “Modified settings” log details.
    • Settings changes are now detected across all save mechanisms (Settings API, direct option updates, and REST) and recorded as a single event.
    • Large or structured settings are now logged as “changed” without storing their full value, keeping the log readable.
    • Developers: simple_history/user_can_clear_log now defaults to whether the user can manage settings, instead of always allowing it. The “Clear log” button is unaffected for administrators.
    • Exporting the log as HTML is faster on sites with large activity logs.
    • Deprecated
    • WP-CLI: wp simple-history event search — use wp simple-history event list --search=<term> instead. The old command still works but will be removed in a future version.
    • Fixed
    • WP-CLI: wp simple-history event search always returned zero results.
    • WP-CLI: --fields on wp simple-history list ignored column names written with a space after the comma.
    • PHP 8 fatal error when a setting was changed by a request without a referrer, such as from the REST API or WP-CLI. #649
    • Untranslatable strings in the statistics view and the weekly email report. #672
    • Invalid date or month filter values now return a clear error (HTTP 400 in the REST API, a friendly message in WP-CLI) instead of a server error.
    • RSS feed no longer breaks when its address contains a date filter it can’t read — for example an older feed URL saved in a feed reader. It now returns an empty feed instead of an error.
    • Removed an unnecessary database query on every admin page load (a leftover from the one-time history backfill check).
    • Dashboard widget now shows an error message with details when the log can’t be loaded (for example when the REST API is blocked), instead of loading placeholders forever.
    • Fatal error on WordPress 6.3 when saving a post that creates a revision.
    • Post update events now link to the revision they created. (The link had been missing since the feature was added in 5.16.0!)
    • PHP warning when logging a comment whose post has been deleted. Such events now read “a comment to (deleted)” instead of showing an empty title.
