UnpublisherID in version History

[blpraveen]

Currently the Version History does not show who unpublished or deleted the page. Can we have the columns to save unpublisherID in the version history table

You can extend the Versioned object for this purpose, add the Unpublisher as a Member relationship, and hook in to onBeforeVersionedPublish to assign it.

Perhaps a less explicit way (and saving adding a column only for the unpublish event) would be to save a record for unplubish but use the PublisherID as the implied unpublisher? I see that would have a more wide reaching usefulness

Thanks Will & Daniel,

We cannot know who unpublished the page or deleted. It necessary to track malicious user trying to unpublish the page.

I'm not sure whether it's right but what I found that onBeforeVersionedPublish is called on publish or save draft. Instead it should create new version on deleteFromStage or on delete.

Thanks

You can access this through Member::currentUser()

You can also hook in to the onBeforeRollback event.

If you also read the source of DataObject.php, you can get an idea of some of the other extension points available to you.
