Description
Debug Toggle is a WordPress plugin that allows administrators to easily manage WordPress debug settings directly from the dashboard. It provides the ability to enable or disable individual debug constants, such as WP_DEBUG, WP_DEBUG_LOG, WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY, SCRIPT_DEBUG, and SAVEQUERIES.
Features:
- Toggle Debug Settings Individually: Enable or disable each debug setting according to your needs.
- Debug Monitoring: Prevent other plugins or themes from changing your debug settings by periodically enforcing your configurations.
- Admin Bar Integration: Quickly toggle all debug modes directly from the admin bar menu.
- Uninstall Options: Choose to remove all plugin data upon uninstalling the plugin, including removing debug constants from
wp-config.php. - Automatic Cleanup on Reinstall: Removes duplicate debug constants from
wp-config.phpon activation to ensure clean configuration.
Why Use Debug Toggle?
Managing debug settings can be cumbersome, especially when you need to edit the wp-config.php file manually. Debug Toggle simplifies this process by providing an intuitive interface within the WordPress admin area, making it easier for developers and site administrators to control debugging options without directly editing core files.

FAQ
-
Does this plugin edit my `wp-config.php` file?
-
Yes, the plugin modifies your
wp-config.phpfile to update the debug constants based on your settings. It creates a backup of the original file namedwp-config-backup.phpin your WordPress root directory before making any changes. -
Is it safe to use on a live site?
-
While the plugin is designed to be safe, it’s recommended to use caution when modifying debug settings on a live site. Enabling certain debug modes can expose sensitive information to visitors. The plugin provides options to prevent unintended changes and to disable debug modes entirely.
-
Can I remove all plugin data upon uninstall?
-
Yes, there is an option in the settings to remove all plugin data upon uninstall. If enabled, all plugin settings will be deleted when you uninstall the plugin, and any debug constants added by the plugin to
wp-config.phpwill also be removed. -
What happens if I manually change the debug settings in `wp-config.php`?
-
If the “Debug Monitoring” feature is enabled, the plugin will periodically reset the debug settings to your configured values, overriding any manual changes. If monitoring is disabled, manual changes will persist until you update the settings via the plugin.
