Get professional support and more features with Activity Track PRO
WooCommerce Activity (Free)
Connect recorded account activity, checkout submissions, saved payment methods, and payment outcomes in one timeline. Includes customer/order summaries, grouped profile updates, outcome badges, and links to related timelines.
- Enable WooCommerce under Activity Track → Settings → Enable Activity Types to show the WooCommerce Activity menu. Enable User to record registration, sign-ins, and profile changes.
- Supported Stripe events are collected through the WooCommerce Stripe gateway. Live webhook recording is shown separately from WooCommerce payment completion; an unconfirmed webhook does not mean a payment failed.
- Review notices highlight five or more recorded live Stripe payment/card-setup failures for the same linked user within ten minutes. Failures can be legitimate retries and do not prove fraud.
- Profile changes store allowlisted categories, not field values. Older events may not contain changed-field details.
- Summaries cover the events on the current page. Tracking starts when enabled; missing records do not prove no activity occurred.
- Monitoring only: this feature does not block customers, validate cards, or replace WooCommerce order management or payment-provider fraud controls. No raw card details or payment payloads are stored by this recorder.
Free works independently. Pro is optional and requires the Free plugin to remain installed and active.
404 Errors (Free)
Review final front-end 404 responses in Activity Track → 404 Errors, with requested URLs, referrers, device information, and recorded visitor details.
- Tracking is enabled by default. Turn it off under Activity Track → Settings → Enable 404 tracking.
- Search recorded URLs, filter by date, export CSV, and delete selected records.
- URL query values are redacted. Capture does not perform remote location lookups and respects the IP logging setting.
- Recording is limited to 60 per minute and 5,000 per day. At 10,000 stored records, the oldest 1,000 are deleted in a batch before adding more. Age-based retention still applies (30 days by default).
- Pause or resume recording directly on the 404 page. Existing records remain accessible while paused; automatic retention cleanup continues. Recording status shows active, paused, or capture-limit states. Skipped responses are not backfilled.
- Bot labels use User-Agent automation signals. Unrecognized clients probing PHP files in common scanner targets are labeled Suspected bot. Labels apply to existing records and CSV exports; they do not verify identity or block requests.
- Monitoring only: this feature does not redirect URLs or block requests. Earlier 404 responses are not backfilled.
External Services
For IP location labels in the main activity log, the plugin may send an IP address to one of the following HTTPS services when displaying the log and a cached location is unavailable. Requests also include the site’s WordPress version in the User-Agent header. Event recording uses cached locations only and does not perform remote location lookups. The 404 recorder does not make these requests either.
- IP2Location.io: https://api.ip2location.io/ — Terms and Privacy.
- IPinfo: https://ipinfo.io/ — Terms and Privacy.
Free works without the optional Pro service. Pro features are provided by a separate plugin; review its service disclosures before enabling them.
IP recording uses the connecting address (REMOTE_ADDR) by default. Forwarded IP headers are accepted only from proxy addresses explicitly configured through the atkai_trusted_proxies filter. Sites behind a proxy or CDN must configure trusted proxy addresses to retain forwarded visitor IPs in the main activity log.

Where are the logs stored?
Logs are stored in your WordPress database. You control retention via settings; export to CSV is available for audits and compliance.

Requires WordPress 6.4+ and PHP 8.0+. See the readme header for the tested WordPress version.
