Notification Log

To see a detailed notification log, visit Utilities > Notification Log in the control panel:

Restricting log size

By default, the log will accumulate events indefinitely, until/unless they are manually cleared. The following settings manage whether and how long those log events remain in the database.

These settings can be managed via either the plugin's control panel page or its PHP config file.

loggingEnabled

bool - Defaults to true.

When disabled, Notifier writes nothing to the notification log, and the "Notification Log" utility will be unavailable.

logRetentionDays

int|null - Defaults to null (no limit).

Maximum age, in days, of log events to retain. Older events will be pruned automatically. Leave blank for no limit.

logRetentionRecords

int|null - Defaults to null (no limit).

Maximum number of log events to retain. When this limit is exceeded, the oldest events will be dropped. Leave blank for no limit.

No cron required

If either retention maximum is set, older log events will be pruned automatically as new ones are written.

Both Rules Apply

If both logRetentionDays and logRetentionRecords are set, both rules will apply. Any log event that exceeds either maximum will be pruned.

Individual log events

Each log event displays the path taken by that message as it was packed up and delivered.

Click the Details button to reveal additional information about what each message contained:

The Config button will open the original Notification which generated the outgoing message.

Deleting log events

To delete a single message log, click the X button.

To delete all logs on a given date, click the Delete Day Logs button at the top of the page.

Click the left & right arrows to move back or forward a full day.

  • Left goes back to the previous day.
  • Right goes forward to the following day.
  • Once you have reached the current day, it will be impossible to navigate any further into the future.

TODAY

If displaying logs for the current day, a TODAY tag will appear beside the date.

Manually change date

To manually navigate, specify a date in the page URL.
