Honeylog

Honeylog WordPress Plugin

Multi-file WordPress plugin that batches frontend requests into a JSON queue and flushes to Honeylog.

This client targets self-hosted and conventional managed WordPress. It is not the complete integration for WordPress VIP, where edge cache hits do not execute PHP and the uploads filesystem is not a durable local queue. Use clients/wordpress-vip-s3 for VIP.

Behavior

• Tracks frontend page requests plus .xml and .txt URLs (excludes wp-admin pages).
• Writes each event to a local NDJSON queue file.
• Uses an option-based lock on every queue write/mutation.
• Runs a cron-based flush every 60 seconds.
• Sends queued events in batches of up to 100.
• Warns administrators when automatic WP-Cron execution is disabled.
