admin/logs/staff_action_logs A list of actions of all admins appears, is there a way to delete this?

But if an evil admin wanted to and had access to the rails console, they could find and destroy those records. Something like StaffActions.where("i was being evil").destroy_all But the evil admin would need to look at the source to see more precisely how to do that.

[image] Daniela: /staff_action_logs It’s just that there’s an administrator leaking information from my forum, I want to investigate, but no one knows about it, but the problem is that it will show everything in the log, so there is no way to delete it?

It’s just that there’s an administrator leaking information from my forum, I want to investigate, but no one knows about it, but the problem is that it will show everything in the log, do i use this command in cmd?

If you can’t trust them, lock them out.

[image] Daniela: an administrator leaking information from my forum May I ask what kind of information?

The problem is that if I block everyone, they’ll make such a mess, and that’s what the person leaking information wants, they want chaos, they want me to remove everyone from the adm, the bad thing if I investigate is that everyone will be embarrassed to see that I scoured their profile and they started to treat me differently, if I had a way to clean the log, everything would be so easy

I have a news forum about country music. My forum competes with 2 others, in my country we are the 3 largest forums in the segment. My forum is the third in terms of access and audience, but it happens that when my team discovers exclusive information or something wants to do something about such a singer, the competing forum already knows and does it before ours! It’s someone from the admin group! But if I go through their profile, a lot of people will be offended! so I want to dig through and then just delete the log so nobody knows that I scoured it and that I’m investigating about it

Oooh, that’s interesting for sure. I’ll keep an eye on this thread :smiling_face:

What logs are you concerned about showing up? Only admins can see those logs, so I don’t understand the issue. But if you want to poke around in the data without evidence of it, then just make a backup and restore it to another server.

I don’t know if you can find those kind of action from logs. Now we are totally off topic but I would set a trap — do a separate honey pot to every admin and you will see who is leaking :wink:

That is a pretty big number.

Looking at large communities it’s not uncommon to have 4-5 admins for 30-35k users and up to 15 with 5M+ users.

How big is this community?
