Note: This plugin requires PHP 5.3 or higher to be activated.
To join Stream Extensions, please visit wp-stream.com
Stream allows you to know exactly when changes to your site have been made, and more importantly, who did them. Never be in the dark about WP Admin activity again.
Every logged-in user action is logged in a user activity stream and organized for easy filtering by connector, context, action and IP address.
Built with performance in mind, Stream won't pollute your default posts table with records or slow down content querying on your site.
Visit the Stream Extensions screen inside the plugin to learn more about making Stream even more powerful.
