How to remove admin logs

Suporte
1

I want to remove admin logs (admin/logs/staff_action_logs) or disable staff logs?
How to?

2

No. You can’t disable it.

3

Why would you want to do this?

4

I think database larger

5

Could you safely delete using postgres Sql?

thanks yoú

Take a back-up before you start firing off commands though!

8

There are very few legitimate reasons to do this
what is the reason?

First, @dangtrungluong , congratulations on having a forum that’s so successful that you actually need to worry about the database size.

However, perhaps you should consider sharding / partitioning?
Generating more granular backups?

Simply deleting data is usually a poor idea likely to lead to unforeseen problems. What exactly is the problem you’re having that you’re wanting to solve?

@Mittineague i’m newbie joining to “discourse”

If you are new to using discourse then I do not see what the issue is at the moment and why you feel it will make a massive impact on your database. We have logs going back to 2014 with no impact and I do not believe it takes up a massive amount of space.

It’s not a bad thing to think about things before they become a problem. If anything, I don’t think the database will be a problem as much as heavy weight media files could be. i.e. should you set up a CDN so the requests are served from closest to a visitors location? Do members reallly need to fill up a topic with mega weight files that could slow down page load and consume bandwidth?

VocĂȘ poderia fazer isso usando o console do Rails, mas tambĂ©m Ă© perigoso. EntĂŁo, se eu estiver correto, seria assim:

cd /var/discourse

sudo ./launcher enter app
rails c

Agora vocĂȘ estĂĄ no console, uma opção para excluir toda a ação de staff / logs de admin Ă© usar isto:

No entanto, isso remove tudo, o que pode nĂŁo ser o que vocĂȘ queria. VocĂȘ pode querer limitar o perĂ­odo de tempo ou investigar certas açÔes.

Por exemplo:
UserHistory.where(action: 17, acting_user_id: 5)

Isso retornaria todas as postagens excluĂ­das pelo usuĂĄrio cujo ID Ă© 5.

ou

UserHistory.where(action: 17, post_id: 15643)

Isso retornaria informaçÔes sobre quem excluiu a postagem com o ID 15643.

Para uma lista de campos da tabela e IDs de ação, veja este arquivo:
