Understanding Logs ​

FluentCart's Logs screen provides a comprehensive chronological record of all significant events and actions that occur within your store. This audit trail is an essential tool for diagnosing issues, tracking changes, and monitoring your store's background operations.

Accessing the Logs ​

  1. From your WordPress dashboard, navigate to FluentCart Pro > Logs in the left sidebar.
  2. This will open the Logs screen, displaying a detailed table of all recorded events.

Understanding the Logs List Table ​

The Logs list table presents key information for each event entry:

  • ID: A unique identification number for each log entry.

  • Date & Title: The date and time when the event occurred, along along with a brief title describing the action.

  • Content: A detailed description of the event that took place.

  • Status: The outcome or severity of the action.

  • Module: The FluentCart module or area from which the action originated.

  • Actions: For many log entries, particularly those related to orders, a "View Order" link is provided. Clicking this link will navigate you directly to the Order Details screen for that specific transaction.

Filtering Logs ​

You can easily filter log entries by their status or type. This helps you find specific events quickly and keeps your store management more organized.

  • Log Type Filters: Tabs at the top of the Logs screen allow you to filter entries by:
    • All: Displays all log entries.
    • Success: Shows only successfully completed actions.
    • Warning: Displays entries indicating a warning or minor issue.
    • Failed: Filters to show only actions that resulted in a failure.
    • Info: Shows informational messages.
    • API Only: Displays logs specifically related to API interactions.

Using Logs for Troubleshooting ​

  • Diagnosing Errors: If you encounter unexpected behavior or errors in your store, checking the "Failed" or "Warning" log types can help identify the root cause.
  • Auditing Changes: TThe "Success" logs keep a record of all successful actions. This is helpful for audits or seeing who did what and when.
  • Tracking Workflows: By reviewing the sequence of events in the log, you can understand how certain processes (like order fulfillment or refunds) unfolded.
