Logging Logins

    I’m super happy with BadgeOS so far for how I can use it to do badges and physical-access based on the badges but we’re running into a critical problem.

    I have a fairly high-traffic website and badgeos is automatically logging every time a person logs into the site. We aren’t going to use logins for ANY achievement of any kind so I would like to disable this feature completely. Yesterday I deleted 100,000+ entries from wp_posts because I didn’t realise it was doing that. I don’t want to have to go into it every day and nuke all of the logins.

    I don’t mind doing some dirty work to get there but we had to disable this plugin while we figure it out because this combined with caching was causing a rather catastrophic impact.

    You should be able to remove the wp_login trigger completely with the following code, that you can put in your functions.php file.

    function prefix_remove_login_trigger( $triggers ) {
	if ( isset( $triggers['wp_login'] ) {
		unset( $triggers['wp_login'] );
	}
	return $triggers;
}
add_filter( 'badgeos_activity_triggers', 'prefix_remove_login_trigger' );

    You can see more information on the other default triggers in the /includes/triggers.php file.

    Thank you!!

    Nice code snippet for future reference.
    I’ve asked this before due to the bloat the logging seems to have.
    Why does BadgeOS log a new post type into wp_posts anyway? Seems very database unfriendly and no other plugin that I’ve seen records in this manner and they still are able to provide useful stats etc

    We implemented this and it completely locked out my WP install (index, dashboard, etc) — so we’re going to have to dig into it and see where the conflict was.

    Yes, please let me know if you figure out why this locked you out. If it’s something related specifically to the part I did, I’d love to make sure I don’t repeat.

    I created badges for login’s.

    After reading this thread, I’m not sure if I have to continue to use it when wp_posts is updated.

    Does all the logs gets stored in wp_posts?

    the current version has the logs as a post type, so they would get stored in that table, yes.
