Ability to limit event
-
Recently our server got a spike of traffic and WordPress to become really slow. after some investigation, I found that Simple History storing a ton of records in our database:
wp_b7afed30c8_simple_history_contexts 7,338,922 643.5 MiB
This even crashes our backup plugin (Duplicator) because this table is too large for our server. I hope there could be an option to limit how many records/events to store with Simple History.
Thanks!

Actually, I just read the readme file in the plugin source code and see that this is already possible:
”
= Is it possible to exclude users from the log? =Yes, you exclude users by role or email using the filter
simple_history/log/do_log.
See the [examples file](https://github.com/bonny/WordPress-Simple-History/blob/master/examples/examples.php).
”
The examples file shows the following code to filter out failed logins:// Don’t log failed logins
add_filter(‘simple_history/simple_logger/log_message_key’, function ($doLog, $loggerSlug, $messageKey, $SimpleLoggerLogLevelsLevel, $context) {
// Don’t log login attempts to non existing users
if (‘SimpleUserLogger’ == $loggerSlug && ‘user_unknown_login_failed’ == $messageKey) {
$doLog = false;
}
// Don’t log failed logins to existing users
if (‘SimpleUserLogger’ == $loggerSlug && ‘user_login_failed’ == $messageKey) {
$doLog = false;
}
return $doLog;
}, 10, 5);
