Activity: Store events
A chronological feed of every order, payment, shipment, return, wallet, inventory, and account event on your store, with category filters and quick links into the record behind each entry.
The Store events tab of the Activity page is your day-to-day feed of what's happening across your store — a single scrolling timeline instead of checking Orders, Shipments, and Finance separately. It's built on your store's event ledger, so it automatically picks up new kinds of events as they're added — there's nothing to configure.
Go to Activity in the left navigation (the new admin sidebar lists it under Settings, next to
Users; Staff accounts see Activity as its own link). The page opens on Store events, and the address
is /activity?tab=events. Old bookmarks to /activity-log still work and land on this tab.
Store events vs. Team actions
The Activity page has two tabs. Store events (this page) covers what happened on your store — orders, payments, shipments, returns, wallet movements, inventory changes, and account events. For an attributable record of administrative changes (who edited a setting, deleted a coupon, or signed in), use the Team actions tab; see Team actions. The tab strip only appears for the Owner/Super Admin. Store Admin and Staff accounts see Store events only, with no tabs, and a vendor account has no Activity page.
Event categories
Every entry belongs to one of ten categories, each with its own icon and colour:
| Category | Covers |
|---|---|
| Order | Orders created, cancelled, and status changes |
| Payment | Payments captured, failed, and refunds initiated |
| Shipment | Shipments booked, and NDR (non-delivery report) actions like reattempt or return-to-origin |
| Return | Customer return requests and their outcomes |
| Wallet | Money credited to or debited from your platform wallet |
| Inventory | Stock and price changes on products and variants |
| System | Automated/background events (e.g. scheduled jobs) |
| Admin | Administrative actions taken by your team |
| Auth | Sign-ins and account-access events |
| Plugin | Events raised by installed plugins (e.g. WhatsApp) |
Each entry shows a category chip, a summary line (what happened), the person or system that did it when known, and a relative timestamp — hover the timestamp to see the exact date and time. Entries that need attention carry a severity badge (Warning or Critical) next to the category chip; routine entries show no badge.
Filtering the feed
Use the toolbar above the feed to narrow it down:
- Search — free-text search across the entries.
- Category — filter to a single category from the table above, or leave it on "All categories."
- Since — a date picker to show only events from a chosen date forward.
New in the redesigned admin (v2): stat tiles and group tabs
If your store is on the newer admin sidebar, the Store events tab adds a stat strip and groups the ten categories into four tabs so you can jump straight to the kind of activity you care about.
What v2 adds
- Stat tiles across the top — Total events, Commerce, Logistics, and Wallet — counted across your whole store, not just what's currently on screen.
- Group tabs — All, Commerce (orders, payments, inventory), Logistics (shipments, returns), Wallet, and Platform (system, admin, auth, plugin) — replace picking one category at a time.
- A Severity filter in place of the v1 Category dropdown, so you can isolate Warning or Critical entries directly.
- A detail drawer — clicking a row opens a side panel with the event's full timestamp, actor and role, amount (if any), and reference ID, instead of navigating away.
Jumping to the underlying record
If an entry has a linked record — an order, a shipment — clicking the row (v1) or view related record in the detail drawer (v2) takes you straight to it.
Loading more and refreshing
The feed loads 50 events at a time. Click Load more at the bottom to fetch the next page, or Refresh at the top to pull the latest events. A caption under the feed always shows how many events you're currently viewing out of the total that match your filters.
Why is an event missing from the feed?
Store events only shows events recorded on your store's ledger from when this feature launched onward — it isn't a retroactive audit of everything that ever happened. If you're looking for a specific update and don't see it, first check that your Category/group tab and Since filters aren't narrowing it out. Some low-level edits (for example, a product edit that doesn't touch price or stock) fall outside the ten categories above and won't appear here — for full field-level change history, see the Team actions tab.
Troubleshooting: why don't I see the Activity link, or only one tab?
Store Admin and Staff accounts get Activity as a single link and see only Store events. Only the
Owner/Super Admin gets the tab strip. Don't see Team actions? You are signed in as a Store Admin. Vendor accounts have no Activity page and are sent away. If an old /activity-log bookmark seems to land on a
different page, it now redirects to Activity → Store events.
