How to exclude WordPress users or roles from the activity log

By default, the WP Activity Log plugin keeps a record of all the changes WordPress users with any role do on a website or multisite network. Though it is possible to exclude either a specific WordPress user or users with a specific role from the activity log. When you exclude a user or a role, the changes that such users (or users with the excluded role) do on WordPress will not be recorded in the WordPress activity log.

How to exclude a user or role from the WordPress activity log

To exclude a user or a role navigate to the WP Activity Log plugin Settings, click the Exclude Objects tab, and specify either a user or role. Click Add to add the user or role and once ready with the changes click Save to save the plugin’s settings. The below screenshot highlights the exclusion settings in the WP Activity Log plugin.
