How to track change history directly on the table and recover deleted tasks

Before version 8.0, the only way to preserve traceability was to move a task to "ignored" instead of deleting it. Now Jestor has a native per-table audit log, with a real deletion option that doesn't lose the history.

What is the per-table audit log, and why does it exist?

The audit log records who changed what and when — creation, editing, and deletion — right in the table view, with no need to navigate to a separate admin area.

Option	Effect on the record	Audit trail
Ignored	Archived, disappears from the active list	Fully preserved
Deleted	Actually removed	Stays in the log, separately

How to check history and delete tasks in Jestor

Filter by action type: creation, update, or deletion.
Filter by author: user, automation, or API call.
Filter by date: today, yesterday, or a custom period.
Real deletion: available from the three-dot menu, alongside the option to just ignore.

How to configure it in Jestor: open the history view right inside the table itself and apply the action type, author, and date filters — without leaving the screen.

Why choose Jestor for this kind of audit?

The key differentiator is having the log accessible directly on the table, with no need to navigate to a separate area, plus export for external audits when needed. This is especially useful on tables with multiple users changing data simultaneously.

Can a blurred background be used in a form to keep a background image readable?

Yes. Among Jestor's form style options is a blur option for the background: when there's an image behind the form, the blur softens that image to improve the readability of the content, while keeping the image visible behind it. Why does a background image without blur
