Could someone please provide a quick example how to record this action? about activity-log HOT 6 OPEN

Hi, resolve by my own. I use the filter aal_init_roles, see the next example.

add_filter( 'aal_init_roles', array( $this, 'aal_init_roles' ) );

public function aal_init_roles( $roles ) {
    $roles_existing          = $roles['manage_options'];
    $roles['manage_options'] = array_merge( $roles_existing, array( "CustomRole" ) );

    return $roles;
}

I insert using the next function aal_insert_log( $args );

    aal_insert_log( array(
        'action'         => "Updated",
        'object_type'    => 'CustomRole',
        'object_subtype' => "tooltips-attributes",
        'object_name'    => "Updated tooltips attributes. <div id='log_full_description' class='privanz_log_full'> " . $diff . "</div>",
    ) );

I need to insert more data in the description and i change the current type of the mysql column like the next script.

public function set_aryo_activity_log_column() {
    global $wpdb;
    $type = $wpdb->get_var( "SELECT DATA_TYPE FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE table_name = 'wp_aryo_activity_log' AND column_name = 'object_name'" );
    if ( $type == "varchar" ) {
        $wpdb->query( "ALTER TABLE wp_aryo_activity_log CHANGE COLUMN object_name object_name blob" );
    }
}

And finally i am saving a big json inside the description i change the column into the log table using the next code and insert a code to show a popup in the footer.

    add_action( 'aal_table_list_column_description', array( $this, 'log_description' ), 10, 2 );
    add_filter( 'admin_print_footer_scripts', array( $this, 'include_in_footer' ), 50 );

public function log_description( $return, $item ) {
    if (strpos($return, 'log_full_description') !== false) {
            $return = $return . " <a class='log_more_btn' href='#'>" . __( "more", "xxx" ) . "...</a>";
    }

    return $return;
}
public function include_in_footer() {
    global $plugin_page;
    if ( 'activity_log_page' != $plugin_page || ! is_admin() ) {
        return;
    }
        ....
}

I hope this code help to other!

Most definitely, @netconstructor!

What you can do is use the aal_insert_log() method,
which will allow you to insert whatever event you'd like.

You can also take a look at some examples, found in the hooks directory within the plugin.

Good luck implementing!

Thank you for your response. I have been attempting to implimented a custom logged activity hook through your plugin but I seem to be unable to get this implimented correctly.

I want to ensure my objective is properly implimented with minimal load on the system while properly hooking/logging all pageviews to any frontend pages (no backend page views) and only for those users who are properly logged in.

In your professional expertise and direct experience could you please clarify if my objective is far more involved than it should be? If possibly and not overly complicated I would greatly appreciate if you might be able to provide the proper code to achieve this properly. Greatly appreciate your help here in advance!
