# The Pastmark dashboard

The Pastmark dashboard gives you a quick overview of the activity on your site.

Go to `User Activity → Dashboard`.

User Activity → Dashboard.

## Choose a time range

At the top, choose **Today**, **Last 7 Days**, **Last 30 Days** or **Last 90 Days**. Click **Refresh** to load new data.

## The cards

| Card | What it shows |
| --- | --- |
| **Events Today** | Events recorded today. |
| **Events This Week** | Events recorded this week. |
| **Events This Month** | Events recorded this month. |

## The Latest Activity Logs box

Pastmark also adds a box to your main WordPress dashboard (`Dashboard → Home`). It shows the 5 newest events. New events since your last visit have a **New** label.

The Latest Activity Logs box.

Click **View all activity logs** to open the full log.

To hide this box, go to `User Activity → Settings → General Settings` and turn off **Dashboard Widget**. People who you gave access to the log can see the dashboard and this box too. Read [Give others access to the log](/docs/pastmark/pastmark-settings/give-others-access-to-the-log/).
