Customers on the Jetpack VaultPress Backup plan or Security plan will have access to events for the last 30 days, and customers on the Jetpack Complete plan will see events for one year. For Jetpack Complete, a maximum of 1,000 events will show on the feed. You can filter the events by date range and activity type, and the feed will also show up to 1,000 events from that filtered range. 

Filter Activity Log’s events

If you own a paid plan for your site, you can use the “Filter by” option at the top of your activity to customize your search results.

You can filter events by Date Range and Activity Type.

To filter events by date range, follow these steps:

  1. Select Date Range
  2. Select the start date.
  3. Select the end date.

To filter events by activity type, follow these steps:

  1. Select Activity Type.
  2. Select the checkbox next to each activity type you want to display.
