WhoChanged is a lightweight activity log for WordPress that quietly watches the admin area and records every meaningful change: who did it, what changed, and when. When something breaks after an update or a client swears “I didn’t touch anything,” WhoChanged gives you the answer in seconds instead of hours.

What gets tracked

• Settings & options — before/after values for any option updated through wp-admin.
• Customizer — every time a user saves changes in the Customizer.
• Plugins — activation, deactivation, deletion and bulk updates.
• Users — logins, failed login attempts, logouts and role changes.
• Content — posts and comments moved to trash, restored, or permanently deleted.
• Navigation menus — menu creation, updates and deletions.
• WooCommerce — order deletions (when WooCommerce is active).

Why WhoChanged

• Clear before/after diffs. Don’t just see that something changed — see exactly what the old and new values were.
• Built for teams. Multiple admins and editors? Know exactly who is responsible for each change.
• Fast, filterable log. Search and filter by user, event type and date range directly from the WordPress admin.
• CSV export. Download your activity log as CSV whenever you need it.
• Privacy-friendly by default. Data stays in your own database — nothing is sent to third parties.
• 30-day activity history, included on every install, no setup required.

PRO features

The Free plan tells you what changed. PRO helps you act on it, prove it, and get notified the moment it happens:

• Unlimited retention — the Free plan keeps 30 days of history; PRO lets you keep logs for 60/90 days or forever, so nothing ages out before an audit.
• Excel (XLS) & PDF reports — polished, client- and auditor-ready exports beyond the Free plan’s CSV, including a one-click PDF export of the Statistics dashboard.
• Instant email alerts — get notified the moment specific event types happen (theme switches, plugin installs, admin role changes).
• Role-based access control — choose exactly which roles can view the activity log, and which roles are tracked in the first place. On Free, only Administrators can view logs and every user is tracked.
• One-click purge — wipe the entire activity log whenever you need a clean slate.

Free is genuinely useful on its own — full event coverage, filtering, diffs and CSV export, forever. PRO is for teams and agencies that need longer history, professional reports, real-time alerts and fine-grained access control.
