Is there a way to call a custom function after an entry is deleted successfully?

If there isn't, is there a record of the deleted record stored anywhere?

Currently, I am thinking of editing the actionPerformAction in elementIndexController, but I don't want to edit the application files, so if there is another method I would prefer that.

You can create a simple plugin that listens to the onDeleteEntry event.

There is an entry parameter passed into that event that is the EntryModel object that represents the entry that was just deleted.

  • craft()->on('entries.onDeleteEntry', function(Event $event) { Craft::log(" HELLO delete on delete ######\n\n", LogLevel::Info, true); }); I created a plugin and added this to the init function, but it isnt being called. Do you know why it might be? Also, I am using craft 2.6. – user2997606 Sep 22 '16 at 3:00
  • @user2997606 Just to check, did you remember to install your plugin via Settings -> Plugins? – Mats Mikkel Rummelhoff Sep 22 '16 at 4:03
  • @mats-mikkel-rummelhoff Yeah, I did that. – user2997606 Sep 22 '16 at 4:10
  • Hard to say without seeing your plugin code. Maybe post a new question with the relevant code in it? – Brad Bell Sep 22 '16 at 23:10
