In my case it turned out to be a path mapping issue. Adding… “pathMappings” : { “/srv/www” : “C:\\Users\\tmorgan\\websites\\local\\www” } …fixed it for me. In other words, explicitly specifying how the server path related to my local file path was necessary. I did not think this was the case because xdebug was connecting to my … Read more
If you want to keep your log on the server, try using php’s error_log() which is more flexible than just writing to files on disk. Something along the lines of: add_filter(‘manage_edit-member_columns’, ‘set_custom_edit_member_columns’); function set_custom_edit_member_columns($columns) { error_log(print_r($columns,true),3,__DIR__.”/log.txt”); $columns[‘photo’] = “Photo”; return $columns; } OTOH, if you find the browser console more convenient, you should include a … Read more
Please try this for your redirect: add_action( ‘template_redirect’, function(){ // no non-authenticated users allowed if( ! is_user_logged_in() ) { wp_redirect( home_url( ‘/wp-login.php’ ), 302 ); exit(); } }); to allow only logged in users to view your site. It’s generally too late to use redirect directly in the header.php file, so it’s better to use … Read more

Is it possible to set another language for debugging messages?

So, if you want to register a shutdown function in WordPress way just add your function on ‘shutdown’ hook: add_action( ‘shutdown’, ‘my_shutdown_callback’ ); function my_shutdown_callback() { error_log(‘Goodbye’); } … Read more
The first link on Google is to https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_mail/ which says that wp_mail is in wp-includes/pluggable.php It also has the full function source code showing that the first active line of the function is: $atts = apply_filters( ‘wp_mail’, compact( ‘to’, ‘subject’, ‘message’, ‘headers’, ‘attachments’ ) ); … which suggests that if you hook into the filter … Read more
Create a cron job for a function which checks the file size and runs unlink( WP_CONTENT_DIR . ‘/debug.log’ ) if necessary.
@Wyck was right, ( well sorta 😛 ) you can set error logs but 1) You need to enable debugging 2) ini_set(‘log_errors’, 1); or 0 for false 3) You need to set a log location via ini_set(‘error_log, $location) Once you have that set you can then if need be test if said file exists via … Read more
