Admin Activity Log: What Happens If I Ignore The Warning??

Hi,

What would happen to my ZenCart installation if I chose to ignore the Admin Activity Log warning that the table has records over 2 months old and should be cleaned? The table has nearly 12K records starting from August 2008. :shocking:

I recently took over support for this particular installation of ZenCart and am picking it up from scratch!

Appreciate any feedback you can provide....thanks!!

Tom

Nothing, really, except your admin activity log will get larger. I'd go ahead and clean it out, unless you have some specific reason not to.

Make a backup of the database, for safekeeping. THEN purge it.

Those logs are useful in auditing activity in case your site has been hacked, or an employee goes rogue and starts messing around.
