Developer Debug Mode lets you toggle all WordPress debug constants directly from your dashboard with beautiful toggle switches. Changes save automatically — no clicking save buttons, no FTP access needed, no risk of syntax errors in your config file. 🎯 The Problem This Plugin Solves Every WordPress developer knows the pain: Something breaks on your site You need to enable WP_DEBUG to see the error You open FTP/File Manager, find wp-config.php, edit it carefully Debug the issue Remember to turn debug off before visitors see ugly error messages Repeat next time something breaks Developer Debug Mode eliminates steps 2-5 entirely. Toggle debug on, find the error, toggle off. Done in seconds. ✨ Key Features One-Click Debug Toggles Control all six WordPress debug constants from a clean, modern interface: WP_DEBUG — Master switch for WordPress debugging WP_DEBUG_LOG — Save errors to wp-content/debug.log WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY — Show errors on screen (careful on production!) SCRIPT_DEBUG — Use unminified core CSS/JS files SAVEQUERIES — Log database queries for performance analysis WP_DISABLE_FATAL_ERROR_HANDLER — See raw PHP fatal errors instead of recovery mode Admin Bar Quick Toggle (New in 1.2.0!) Toggle any debug constant directly from the WordPress admin bar — no need to visit the settings page. Perfect for quick debugging sessions. Built-in Debug Log Viewer View, search, download, and clear your debug.log without leaving WordPress: Color-coded entries (fatal, error, warning, notice) Search with highlighting Auto-refresh option for real-time monitoring One-click download and clear Auto-Save Technology Changes save instantly as you toggle.

Frontend Debug Warning A tasteful notification bar appears when WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY is active, reminding you to turn it off before visitors see error messages. Cross-Tab Synchronization Toggle debug in one browser tab and watch other open tabs update instantly. Automatic Backups Every change creates a backup of wp-config.php. The plugin keeps the 5 most recent backups, so you can always recover if something goes wrong. 🔧 Perfect For Theme developers debugging template issues Plugin developers testing new code Site administrators troubleshooting problems Agencies managing multiple client sites Freelancers who need quick debugging without FTP access Anyone tired of manually editing wp-config.php 💡 Why Choose Developer Debug Mode? Unlike other debug plugins, we focus on user experience: ✅ Instant toggles — No save buttons, changes apply immediately ✅ Visual feedback — Clear status indicators show exactly what’s enabled ✅ Admin bar access — Toggle debug from anywhere in WordPress ✅ Production-safe — Frontend warnings prevent accidentally exposing errors ✅ Modern design — Beautiful UI that fits naturally in your dashboard ✅ Lightweight — No bloat, loads only where needed 🔒 Built With Security In Mind Capability checks ensure only administrators can change settings Nonce verification on all AJAX requests Automatic wp-config.php backups before every change No data sent to external servers Clean uninstall removes all plugin data 📚 Debug Constants Explained Not sure what each constant does? Here’s a quick guide: WP_DEBUG The master switch. When enabled, WordPress will display PHP errors, notices, and warnings. Required for the other debug constants to work. WP_DEBUG_LOG Saves all debug messages to /wp-content/debug.log. Essential for debugging issues that happen in the background (AJAX, cron jobs, REST API). WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY Shows errors directly on your web pages. Useful during development but never enable on production — it can expose sensitive information to visitors. SCRIPT_DEBUG Forces WordPress to use the development versions of core CSS and JavaScript files instead of minified versions. Helpful when debugging scripts. SAVEQUERIES Stores database queries in a global array for later analysis. Useful for identifying slow queries but adds overhead — disable when not needed. WP_DISABLE_FATAL_ERROR_HANDLER Disables WordPress’s “recovery mode” so you see the actual PHP fatal error instead of “There has been a critical error on this website.” 🤝 Support & Documentation Need help?

phpinfo() WP – Site Health, PHP Compatibility & Server Audit
phpinfo() WP is a modern, actively-maintained WordPress site health and server audit plugin. It is the exact in-admin tool freelancers and agencies install on every fresh site to instantly see what is wrong, what is about to break, and what to fix, all without a SaaS subscription, without external dashboards, and without leaving the WordPress admin panel. Think of it as the official “Health Check & Troubleshooting” plugin, but built for professional production sites. Our Troubleshooting Mode runs completely in a per-user session. Visitors and clients continue to see the live site normally while you safely debug and isolate conflicts without a single second of downtime. The free version covers what every WordPress site owner actually needs: phpinfo() viewer: Clean, searchable, and modern (the original feature, completely restyled). Host-Friendly Compatibility Scanner: Scan all plugins and themes for PHP version conflicts before upgrading, built to work smoothly even on strict managed hosts. Update Guard: Complete pre-update & post-update safety suite. Preview core upgrade stability, scan pending plugin and theme updates for breaking changes, and auto-verify site health 60s after every update. Zero-Downtime Troubleshooting: Safely debug theme and plugin conflicts in your own admin session without affecting visitors or live sales. PHP EOL Timeline: Every PHP version’s end-of-life date, current status, and days remaining. Config Grader summary: Overall A-F grade of your PHP config against WordPress best practices. PHP Config editor (.htaccess / .user.ini): Set or change php.ini directives safely from your dashboard, with automatic backups and safety rollback. Admin bar health scoreboard: Live grade and most-urgent issue on every admin page, like PageSpeed for your server. Dashboard widget: Site health at a glance the moment you log in. Activity log, Extensions, and Basic info: Everything the original plugin did, completely restyled. AI-Ready API (WP 7.0): Exposes audit data so AI assistants and plugins can inspect server health through a standard core interface. AI Explanations (WP 7.0): Instantly explain failing checks in plain English using the core AI Client connection. Pro adds the tooling agencies and serious site owners actually need: Safeguard: Don’t break your site 1-Click Auto-Fix with Rollback: Fix config issues instantly. Writes optimization rules to .htaccess or .user.ini and auto-reverts if the server hits a 500 error. Pre-Update PHP check: Scan plugin updates before upgrading to verify they do not require a PHP version you do not have. Update Guard Pro: Automatic interception on the WordPress Updates page, changelog breaking-change risk analysis, WP.org abandonment alerts, post-update diagnostic health checks (loopback, error log delta, cron), and AI-written remediation steps. Config Snapshots: Weekly automatic snapshots of every php.ini directive, with visual diffs. Security Headers Auditor: Grade your HTTP response headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) with fix suggestions. Web Server Snippet Library: Optimized Nginx and Apache configuration blocks for caching, security, and bad bot blocking, with 1-click injection for Apache and LiteSpeed. SSL Certificate Monitor: Track certificate expiry and domain mismatches to avoid security warnings. Insight: Know what is wrong before clients call Full Config Grader: Detailed grading with the exact recommended values and why each directive matters. Database Health: Engine version, EOL status, size, and autoload bloat detection. External API Monitor: Track response times, status codes, and SSL expiry for third-party endpoints your site depends on. Permissions Audit: Recursive file and directory permission auditor. OPcache Dashboard: Memory usage, hit rate, cached scripts, and one-click reset. Object Cache Monitor: Status, backend detection, hit/miss metrics, and Redis/Memcached verification. Live Error Log Viewer: Filterable error stream directly inside wp-admin. WP-Cron Monitor: Catch missed tasks, runaway jobs, and stuck schedules. Mail Deliverability: Test wp_mail(), inspect PHPMailer transport, and send test emails. Health Alerts: Real-time email notifications and Slack/Discord webhook alerts when critical issues occur. Deliver: Look professional to clients Email Alerts: Get notified on PHP EOL, config drift, OPcache drops, and SSL expiry. Weekly Digest: Full server health summary delivered to your inbox every Monday (Unlimited or Lifetime). Integrations: Slack, Discord, and Webhook support for real-time alerts (Unlimited or Lifetime). Multi-Site Dashboard: Network-wide dashboard widget support on every subsite. Why use this instead of 5 different plugins? Most WordPress site health tools force you to install separate plugins for PHP compatibility, SSL monitoring, security headers, OPcache, error logs, cron, and reports. Each one is another plugin to update, another menu item, and another set of options. phpinfo() WP gives you one in-admin plugin that covers all of it, with a single dashboard widget and a single PDF audit report. No external SaaS dashboard, no per-site monthly fees, and no separate logins. Pricing Single Site: $29/year (1 site, essential Pro features, branded PDF, 3 snapshots, 1 API monitor) Unlimited Sites: $69/year (the popular pick, works on every site, fully white-labeled, unlimited snapshots and API monitors) Lifetime: $149 once (founders pricing, first 50 buyers, unlimited sites, fully white-labeled) 14-day money-back guarantee.
