 However, you can get activity logs from a model by using this.
 ```php
-$post->logs();
+$post->logs; // get all model's logs
+$post->log; // get the latest model's log
+$post->logs()->where('log_type', 'edit')->get(); // get filtered logs
+```
+
+You allowed to specify the mode for the `edit` event log. There are two modes available now `simple`/`full`. The default mode is `full`.
+```php
+# config/user-activity-log.php
+
+# only can choose either one of them
+'mode' => 'full',   # the 'full' mode record everything
+'mode' => 'simple', # the 'simple' mode only record the modified columns
