Description

Error Log Viewer By WP Guru – Best Error Log Viewer Plugin for WordPress

A Lightweight Plugin to Handle Error Logs easily and efficiently.

Error Log Viewer By WP Guru is a great Free WordPress plugin if you are looking to manage Error log entries and kill errors on time. Error logs help you monitor your site and provide visibility into important changes that occur on your website. PHP error logs, including WordPress logs, can help you to spot problems and identify the offending plugin, theme, or custom code.

Logging errors is considered one of the top “best practices” in software development; it becomes more important as your website grows and scales.

Additionally, you can track all types of errors based on Plugins, Themes, and WP Core or custom code and resolve exceptions to get optimized performance results.

Monitoring PHP errors is something you need to do if you want to keep your WordPress website secure, healthy, and fast. If not fixed, PHP errors can indeed reduce your website performance and increase your website’s vulnerability to downtime and hackers.

FAQ

Where can I find Error Log Files using FTP?

In case when WP Admin is blocked due to Error then you may use FTP to check Log files located at /wp-content/uploads/error-log-viewer-wp/ directory.

Where can I ask for help?

You may contact our Support or Report Bugs or Suggest Ideas at any time.

Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

This plugin does not log nor transmit any user data. In fact, it doesn’t even do anything on the user-facing part of your website, only in the admin area. This means it should be compliant but I’m not a lawyer.

The debug log file was quickly generating hundreds of PHP notices by the plugin. I can't use it in development environment.

I would have waited to post a review, hoping to get a response to my support issue, however, the plugin nagged me to leave a review. The plugin works but always displays 2 errors that the plugin causes, so 2 stars.

Initially, I thought it wasn't working because it wasn't displaying anything, but it turns out that the reason was that it doesn't play well if I had already enabled WP_DEBUG in my wp-config.php file. Once I removed my directives, it worked fine. I'm not sure why it changes the location of log files and stores them in the uploads folder. As for UI, I just don't like the location of the admin menu, but the functionality is decent, and it nicely categorizes log messages.
