Is there an activity log where the IP address, date/time, and other information is logged whenever a user registers, signs in, etc?

Thanks!

Yes the web servers log files, if your host gives you access to them.

Yes, my host does provide the log files for visitors to the web site. However, it does not track activity on my Web Wiz forum. For example, I'd like to know what IP address a particular user signed up from. I was just wondering if there was anything specifically within WWF that tracked activity, account creation, logins and IP addresses.

There is nothing within Web Wiz Forums to log users activity as this would be a big performance hit and on busy forums would mean massive amounts of extra data being stored.

If you enable the IIS log files to also log the cookie data as well you can then use the IIS log files to track users.
