Site Update Logger gives site owners and agencies full visibility into every update event happening across WordPress core, plugins, and themes. It records version changes, install/uninstall events, activations, deactivations, and theme switches while also capturing PHP errors that occur during updates. Logs are organized per month, downloadable, and annotated with custom notes so you can build an auditable change history that is easy to search and share.
