Activity done by server

Thank you for using our plugin @andreu

Usually such activity is generated by automated processes on your server. Do you have any plugins or cron jobs that do some sort of maintenance work on your website, that for example, automatically delete posts with certain characteristics?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi,

The problem is that I don’t think we have such a process in our code. I’ve been looking for wp_delete_post and similar functions in our theme without success. I’m not sure how can investigate where this process come from because it happens in a random basis and not very often.
Also, when the pages are being deleted, they are also removed from trash automatically, the same that wp_delete_post permits with the force_delete parametre to true…

Any advise to investigate this further will be really helpful.

Thanks for the great work with this plugin.

Best,

Hello @andreu

There are built-in processes in WordPress that automatically purges certain posts, such as revisions etc. Also, you said that post are being deleted from the trash – this certainly sounds like a legit operation.

Unfortunately it is impossible to assist / point out the source of the issue in something like this without having access to the website. You have full access and you know what plugins you have installed etc. I’d recommend you to for example check the website’s cron jobs, with a plugin such as WP Crontrol.

You can also set up a staging website and if the issue persists, start deactivating the plugins one at a time until the issue stops from occurring. You can also switch to a default theme as a test, although typically such functionality is included in plugins and not themes.

I hope the above gives you a bit of an indication of how you can troubleshoot this issue. Should you have any more questions, do not hesitate to ask.
