This is a series of posts about building the Logtivity SaaS service.
A few months ago, I saw a tweet from Iain Poulson, who has been very active on the business side of WordPress. Iain regularly links to WordPress products for sale, and this time it was a listing on Flippa:
Continue reading “We Launched Logtivity: A New WordPress Activity Log”We launched Logtivity in August: it’s a new activity log service that helps you understand exactly what’s happening on your WordPress site.
The first version of Logtivity had support for the WordPress core, so it recorded eventss like these:
The next big step is integration with Easy Digital Downloads. If you sell WordPress plugins or themes, there is a very good chance that you use the Software Licensing extension. It is a cornerstone of the WordPress economy.

Mostly they center around the fact that the site is owned by Matt Mullenweg, and there are potential conflicts of interest, but people are rarely able to point to specific examples.

Let’s say 20 years as a conservative estimate. I’ve collected dozens of sites for work, hobbies, side-projects, and for various family members.
It’s always been a pain to keep track of them. At least one site every year gets hacked and falls victim to a bad plugin, or some mistake I’ve made.
