Someone moved a very important page on my website into the trash, and I do not know who did it! It was not deleted permanently so I don’t need to worry, in that sense.
The revisions, when I restored it, show that someone edited it 3 days prior to today, so it could have been them, but I can’t be sure.
Does WP keep track of who clicks the trash button? If not, I presume I’d have to write a custom script to hook onto the trash button, when clicked.
By default, no, WordPress doesn’t keep track of who changes post statuses (at least that I can see).
you can hook into transition_post_status and log the user id.
add_action( 'transition_post_status', 'wwm_transition_post_status', 10, 3 );
function wwm_transition_post_status( $new_status, $old_status, $post ) {
if ( 'trash' == $new_status ) {
$uid = get_current_user_id();
//somehow or another log the $uid with the $post->ID
}
}
