Log Viewer for Umbraco V3 and V4

Download here  

The latest version (1.2) now works with versions 4.x and 4.5 using MySQL or SQL Server.

It adds 3 tabs to the "developer" dashboard, allowing you to view logs by User or by Log Type. It also allows you to delete old logs (function not yet available)

There is a config file called ascendLogViewer.config which sets how many days worth of logs are displayed.

Note: If you uninstall Log Viewer, you will need to manually update dashboard.config (in /config folder).

You will need to remove the entire < section > that contains "AscendLogViewer" items.

Encoded email links for Umbraco

1: copy the SafeMailLink.dll to the "bin" folder of your umbraco install

2: Add this line in the web-config in the <httpModules> section:

    <!-- Safe Email Links -->
    <add name="SafeMailLinkModule" type="SafeMailLink.SafeMailLinkModule" />

You're done!
