WordPress Debugging Tools

WordPress debugging tools is designed to help developers and site administrators easily enable debugging, view error logs, manage log files, and more within their WordPress environment. It provides a convenient interface for modifying wp-config.php constants related to debugging, viewing error logs directly from the browser, and performing other debugging-related tasks without the need for manual file modifications.

• Log Management: Download, rotate, or delete the debug.log file directly from the tool.
• Error Revealer: Automatically download and install the error revealer script for advanced debugging.
• Backup and Restore: Automatically creates a backup of wp-config.php before making changes, allowing for easy restoration if needed.
• WP-CLI wp-config-transformer Integration: Utilizes the wp-config-transformer library for safely modifying wp-config.php constants, ensuring compatibility and preventing syntax errors.
