Hi,
I am programatically trying to list all the modules that have been deleted in DNN 8.0.3.
I tried get the information from event log after enabling "Tab module deleted " but the information would be lost when some one clears the log.
So I cannot relay on the log to get this details.
So I am trying to create my own logic.

I am using this function to get all modules in the site.
DotNetNuke.Entities.Modules.ModuleController.Instance.GetAllModules().Cast<ModuleInfo>()
I am able to check if the module is deleted using the IsDeleted property.
I find that the Last modified date and last modified by user is not getting updated when a module is deleted.

Is there any way to check the datetime  when the module was deleted and the user who deleted the module?

 

Thanks in advance 

 

Hi

I assume you are trying to find out who is deleting modules?

Again, assuming every user in NOT an admin, you may have a small number of suspects

You could therefore use an SQL query to cross reference delete date/time with login / logout

Apologies I've not tested this but I was just working on a site and I noted the Recycle Bin had dates next to the modules I had deleted

If your site is used by a 'large' company then your users (with editing rights) may be departmental and control different parts of the site, create users and give selective rights by department

Failing all of the above - teach you users not to DELETE modules but to set the expiry date and get them to 'log' the action in the module header / footer

I hope one of these work for you :-)

Regards

P.S. Who is clearing the audit log?

Maybe do something to extract the log on daily basis and store in an offline databases - Access?
