Ultimate Email Logger records every email your WordPress site sends through wp_mail()<\/code> and stores it in a dedicated database table you can search, view, resend, forward, export, and track.<\/p>\n\n

Works with WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, WPForms, FluentCRM, LearnDash, BuddyPress, WP Mail SMTP, and any plugin that uses wp_mail()<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n

Features<\/h3>\n\n
    \n
  • Logs every outgoing email with To, From, CC, BCC, Reply-To, Subject, Body, Headers, Attachments, and Status as dedicated indexed columns.<\/li>\n
  • Log viewer with sortable columns, date and status filters, full-text search, and predicates: to:<\/code>, from:<\/code>, cc:<\/code>, subject:<\/code>, id:<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  • Email detail modal with HTML preview, raw text, and JSON tabs.<\/li>\n
  • Resend any logged email with editable recipient and subject.<\/li>\n
  • Auto-forward copies of outgoing email via To, CC, or BCC.<\/li>\n
  • CSV export with field selection, HTML stripping, and custom date format.<\/li>\n
  • Auto-delete by age (days) or log rotation by count, run on WP Cron.<\/li>\n
  • Open tracking via 1x1 pixel with open count, timestamp, and user agent.<\/li>\n
  • Statistics page: summary cards, daily volume chart, top recipients.<\/li>\n
  • SMTP failure capture via wp_mail_failed<\/code> with stored error message.<\/li>\n
  • Webhook notifications on failure or for all emails.<\/li>\n
  • Dashboard widget with today, this week, this month, and failure counts.<\/li>\n
  • GDPR personal data exporter and eraser.<\/li>\n
  • REST API under ultimate-email-logger\/v1<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  • Custom capability manage_email_logs<\/code> for role-based access.<\/li>\n
  • Multisite compatible with per-site tables.<\/li>\n
  • BuddyPress email logging.<\/li>\n
  • Translation ready with .pot<\/code> file.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

    Performance<\/h3>\n\n

    Indexed columns and FULLTEXT indexes on subject and body keep search fast. Cleanup runs on WP Cron. Webhooks are non-blocking. Logging adds one indexed insert per email.<\/p>\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Install from the WordPress plugin directory, or upload ultimate-email-logger<\/code> to \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code>.<\/li>\n
    2. Activate the plugin.<\/li>\n
    3. Open Email Logger<\/strong> in the admin sidebar.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

      Logging starts immediately. No configuration required. Open Email Logger > Settings<\/strong> to enable forwarding, auto-delete, open tracking, or webhooks.<\/p>\n\n\n

      \n

      Does it log all emails?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. Every email sent via wp_mail()<\/code> is logged, including WooCommerce, contact forms, and plugin notifications.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Does it work with SMTP plugins?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. SMTP plugins like WP Mail SMTP change delivery, not logging. Emails are captured before delivery.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Can I resend a failed email?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. Click Resend on any log row. Edit the recipient or subject first if needed.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Can I export logs?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. Export to CSV with configurable fields, date format, and optional HTML stripping.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Is it multisite compatible?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. Each site has its own log table. Network activation is supported.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      How does open tracking work?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      A 1x1 pixel is added to HTML emails. When the recipient loads images, the open is logged with count, timestamp, and user agent.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Is it GDPR compliant?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. The plugin registers with the WordPress personal data exporter and eraser.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Will it slow my site down?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      No. Logging is a single indexed insert. Cleanup runs on cron. Webhooks are non-blocking.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      What happens on uninstall?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Data is kept by default. Enable \"Remove all data on uninstall\" in settings to drop the table, options, cron events, and capabilities.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Is it really free?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. All features are included. No pro version, no add-ons.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
