NaveenCodes Site Diagnostics vs Variable Inspector

💛 This plugin is dedicated to my mother. Every update carries her blessings. NaveenCodes Site Diagnostics is a developer-focused diagnostics plugin for WordPress administrators. It helps you isolate plugin conflicts, inspect debug.log, estimate plugin load impact, review dependency problems, monitor cron events, create environment snapshots, and troubleshoot errors with a local rules engine. Core features Plugin conflict detection from debug.log parsing Hook conflict discovery based on registered callback signatures Admin-only Safe Mode that does not change the public frontend Error log analyzer for fatal errors, warnings, notices, and deprecated messages Compatibility checker for PHP, WordPress, and installed plugin updates Performance scanner with estimated plugin load time in milliseconds Plugin size analyzer Debug snapshot export in JSON and CSV Dependency checker for required plugins Memory usage analyzer with per-plugin estimates Smart warning system Scheduled health report emails (weekly or monthly) with score, conflicts, log size, and cron status Local AI Debug Helper with rule-based cause and fix suggestions Debug timeline for plugin actions and captured fatal errors File change detector with SHA-256 baselines Cron job monitor Website health score Database Health Checker with table overhead, autoloaded options bloat, and transient/postmeta cleanup candidates Security Nonce verification on all AJAX actions Capability checks with manage_options Sanitization with WordPress helper functions Escaped output in admin views No external APIs No third-party libraries Notes Scans run on demand and cache their reports with transients Safe Mode only applies to wp-admin and admin-ajax requests that carry the Safe Mode cookie The plugin never disables itself inside Safe Mode

Variable Inspector allows you to easily inspect your PHP $variables in a visually clean manner at a central dashboard in wp-admin. It aims to be an easy and useful enough dev and debug tool. It provides a single-line code to inspect your variable (see “How to Use” below). Nothing is shown to site visitors nor being output on the frontend, and the $variable content is nicely formatted for review using var_dump(), var_export() and print_r() on the inspector dashboard in wp-admin. It’s a real time-saver for scenarios where Xdebug or even something like Ray is not ideal or simply an overkill. For example, when coding on a non-local environment via tools like Code Snippets, WPCodeBox, Scripts Organizer or Advanced Scripts. Additionally, because it is a regular WordPress plugin, you simply install, activate and use without the need for complicated configuration. What Users Say “Huge time-saver when working with PHP variables.” ~Jeff Starr “Works great! Love this thing.” ~Josh “Every developer need it. You can debug easily every variable.” ~Pexle Chris “All I need. Enough to test the function of snippets. Works flawless.” ~@tesig “It does what it does very well, and doesn’t try to do everything.” ~@swb1 How to Use Simply place the following line anywhere in your code after the $variable_name you’d like to inspect: do_action( 'inspect', [ 'variable_name', $variable_name ] ); If you’d like to record the originating PHP file and line number, append the PHP magic constants __FILE__ and __LINE__ as follows. do_action( 'inspect', [ 'variable_name', $variable_name, __FILE__, __LINE__ ] ); This would help you locate and clean up the inspector lines once you’re done debugging. Give Back A nice review would be great! Give feedback and help improve future versions. Github repo to contribute code. Sponsor my work with as little as USD 1 monthly or one-time. PRO Version If you need something more versatile for larger, more complex projects, these PRO features might come in handy: vi( $variable ) inspector to replace the do_action() above and automatically includes the file path and line number. Or, use vis( $variable_name, ‘variable_name’ ) when inspecting in/via code snippets plugins (Code Snippets, WPCodeBox, Scripts Organizer, etc.) or custom code module of page builders (Bricks, Oxygen Builder, etc.) dump_print_r and dump_print_tree viewers: both viewers combines var_dump and print_r, with the later allowing for collapsing and expanding data nodes, which is especially useful for inspecting long and complex arrays and objects. kint viewer: an advanced viewer with table view for multi-dimensional arrays, node access path info, capability to search inside variables, pop-up window viewing and advanced info for your complex objects, e.g. available methods and static class properties. Categorize and filter results by color. This, for example, allows you to categorize $variables according to which stage they’re in inside your code. Add counter or notes to inspection results. Another way to tag $variables and provide context for the inspection results. Search filter: easily find certain $variables by name and type. View up to 250 results. The free version is limited to 25 results. Individual and bulk deletion of results. Easily clean up your inspection dashboard from obsolete results you no longer need to reference. You can also select certain variables in bulk. Click here to see a screenshot of the PRO version or see below in the screenshots section. What PRO Users Say “I was looking for a tool like this for a while. Great solution! Love this thing.” ~Marco Frodl “I have used it for a couple of days and it has helped me a lot to go faster when debugging.”” ~Javier Sor “I’ve only just started using it and it really helps me get my head around the code of a plugin I’m trying to customise” ~Tim Dickinson “I’ve been testing it and I really like it. It helps a lot and saves a lot of time in development. It’s also compatible with Oxygen, Bricks, WPCodeBox, etc.” ~Juan Jose Gonzalez, oxygenados.com “I just bought this! Great plugin – thank you for the hard work!” ~Tim Dickinson “I used to use Ray locally, I’m also using Xdebug a lot .. if I need to debug some variables, I use Query Monitor. I bought this, because the UI is nice, it has all those good features from both worlds.” ~Peter Morvay “Worth the buy! It is really good… great for debugging. Specially, when you want to write custom code or understand some snippet ChatGPT gave you.” ~John D Get the PRO version now!
