Scope indicates whether a plugin activation or deactivation occurred on a single site or across the entire multisite network. ### Are logs grouped by day? Yes. Each log entry includes a timestamp and logs are listed in reverse chronological order within each daily section. ### How do I translate the plugin? Use the included `languages/site-update-logger.pot` file to create a new `.po`/`. mo` pair. Store them in the same directory following the `textdomain-locale.mo` naming convention. ### Can I keep my logs when uninstalling? Yes. Use the checkbox on the Settings page. When unchecked, uninstalling preserves all log files so you can archive them manually. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Site Update Logger” is open source software.
