Simple & Great Learning Tool
by Saurabh·4 years ago
It helps get access to a site’s error log, even for lay users without contacting web hosts or filesystem access. Really useful in debugging in support.
Also useful as a teaching/learning tool for basic technical debugging too.
Still Works Great on WP 5.8.2
by William·4 years ago
Thank you for this great plugin which saves time on backing up wp-config.php and turning on debug mode. Eliminates mistakes which might otherwise be introduced when manually changing wp-config.php and allows faster debugging.
Still works
by Wombat Plugins·5 years ago
Even though updates have been a while (at least at the time of writing this), the plugin still works well and serves its purpose.
Просто ужас, а не плагин

С активацией плагина перекосило весь сайт окончательно.
Не помогло даже его удаление с сайта. Все записи в админке стали из иероглифов.
Хорошо, что получилось из резервной копии на хостинге сайт восстановить, а то слало как то очень хреново от увиденного.
Essential part of a debugger’s toolkit
by HelgaTheViking·6 years ago·1 reply
This plugin has helped me rescue many client sites when they can’t figure out how to enable WP_DEBUGon their own.
I know it hasn’t been updated in forever, but it is still working for me as of WordPress 5.3.
