Q: Events Logger - Files upload or delete

Hello, just to understand ... if my users uploads files using a WP Form, for instance Bit Form.. WP Security ninja will create an event log when the user uploads the file? And if some users delete a file... will create an event log?... or is about upload the files in the WordPress posts only? ... do you have an example?

A: Hello 14d003b5e74865575a1b9bdba9ba850f5c2f497b – Great question! It depends on how Bit Form (or any other form plugin) handles file uploads. If Bit Form uploads files directly to the WordPress Media Library, then yes - WP Security Ninja’s Events Logger will record an event whenever a user uploads or deletes a file.

The plugin tracks core WordPress actions like add_attachment (for uploads) and delete_attachment (for deletions).

However, if the form plugin stores files outside the Media Library or uses a custom upload handler, those actions may not be logged automatically.

You can see examples and screenshots of the event logs here: https://wpsecurityninja.com/docs/event-logger/how-to-use-the-event-logger/

The interface has been updated since those screenshots were taken, and you can also spin up a demo site from our website to try it out yourself. You could even add Bit Form to the demo site and check out how it works.

I hope that this answer helps.
