I wanted to get a log of name changes via the [Data Explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) Plugin but can’t find anything useful in the db sidebar about this

Could someone head me to right direction? Or is this not being logged? (Besides the one changed by an administrator in the team log)

This was suggested before on bbs, ATM we do not have a log, agree we should add one

Sure @techapj can you add this to your list when you return?

@Der-Eddy after you update to latest, here is the [Data Explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) query you are looking for:

```sql
SELECT id,
       acting_user_id,
       target_user_id,
       created_at,
       previous_value,
       new_value
FROM user_histories
WHERE action = 48
ORDER BY id DESC

```

Is this the source of the incorrect name change log bug @techapj?

The “log user name changes” feature was regressed in [this commit](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/2503241ce54a043c08c2dcb3ef37ce2ebf65e9c5).
