Title: Any way to access security log without typing in link directly?
Post by: helloeverybody on January 05, 2016, 09:27:26 AM
Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a button you can click on the main page or somewhere to access the security log or do you have to type in the link manually?

AFAIK, there isn't a button or a direct link to that page.

I think that the simplest solution to avoid to manually type the link is to add a bookmark in your browser.

Add to bookmark or use the autofill from webbrowser

You do realize you answered your own question in the quote. Just click that link every time!  :D

Failing that you could, as the others suggested, make a bookmark. If you happen to use linux I have a handy bash script that auto-updates it for you periodically I might be willing to share.

Yeah im aware of all that obviously, i just thought maybe i was missing a button somewhere on the home page that takes me directly there but seems not to be.

Its a "hidden" function, so its obviously not on the Home page

Aright i will just add it in with my bookmarks for now then (its messy in there). Its just handy for keeping an eye out for possibly hacked account, you know yourself. Anyway Thanks for everyones input, id say this is solved.

You do know the pass change(Email or just a plain pass change) shows up as a warning in the trust page right?

yeah, the log just shows more like how many times its been changed in the last 30 days etc, At first glance i just check the trust page, but if theres more than one password change then the account might have changed hands a few times etc.
