Simple History is the complete audit log for WordPress. It tracks every meaningful change — content edits, user logins, plugin updates, security events, and more — so site owners, teams, agencies, and developers always know who did what and when. Just install and activate; no configuration required.
🔍 How Simple History Helps in Real Situations
Track what’s happening on your site
“Has anyone done anything today? Ah, Sarah uploaded the new press release and created an article for it. Great — now I don’t have to do that.”
Identify issues and debug faster
“The site feels slow since yesterday. Has anyone done anything special? … Ah, Steven activated ‘naughty-plugin-x’, that must be it.”
Keep freelancers & agencies accountable
“I hired a developer to optimize my site. But did they actually do anything? A quick glance at Simple History shows me exactly what they worked on.”
Spot suspicious activity early
“I see three failed logins from an unfamiliar IP address overnight. Let me click the IP to check all activity from that address — just those attempts, nothing else. Good to know.”
✨ What Simple History Tracks

Failed user logins with IP tracking and filtering by type (wrong password vs. non-existent username)
