Site activity

Site activity is the audit log of changes across your Basker site. Every theme update, sync, create, update, delete, publish, and unpublish action is recorded with who did it, when, and what it affected. Use it to answer "who changed this?", to investigate unexpected behaviour, and to meet compliance or governance requirements.

Open Settings → Site Activity. The screen is subtitled See the most important changes made across your site, including theme updates, sync activity, and other key admin actions. It has two sections: Filters and Timeline.

What's recorded

Each entry in the activity log includes:

• The action taken — create, update, delete, duplicate, publish, unpublish, restore, upload, and others.
• The module affected — pages, events, posts, themes, smart collections, blueprints, custom data, and so on.
• The actor — the user who performed the action.
• The resource — a reference to the specific record affected, with its title for readability.
• The time the action happened.

The log captures actions across most content types and operational areas. It's intentionally broad: anything that materially changes your site shows up.

Filtering and searching the log

The activity log can be filtered by:

• Time range — the last hour, day, week, or a custom range.
• Actor — actions by a specific user.
• Module — actions on a specific kind of content.
• Action type — only publishes, only deletes, and so on.
• Resource — actions affecting a specific record.

Combine filters to investigate specific scenarios — "every publish action on events in the last week", "every delete by a specific user".

Common uses

• Investigating an unexpected change — "why is this page different?" → filter by resource, see the latest update, check who and when.
• Auditing publishes — see what's gone live in the last week or month.
• Reviewing a user's activity — for compliance, training, or hand-over.
• Spotting accidental deletions — most deletes are recoverable through versioning; the activity log tells you what happened and when.

Retention

Activity log entries are retained for a long time by default — usually long enough to cover compliance reporting periods. Speak to Basker support if you need a specific retention guarantee, or if you need to export the log for archival.
