WordPress Plugin for debugging and learning with and at system

Debug Objects

The WordPress Plugin Debug Objects provides a large number of information: query, cache, crons, constants, hooks, functions and many more.

Description

The Plugin Debug Objects provides the user, which has the appropriate rights, normally the administrator, a large number of information: query, cache, crons, constants, hooks, functions and many many more. Values and content get displayed at the frontend and backend of the blog, to analyze errors but also to better understand and develop with/for WordPress.

The Plugin provides in various tabs information to:

• PHP
• Memory usage
• Load Time
• Included Files
• Operating System
• Server
• WordPress Version
• Language
• Very extensive definitions of various constants
• Cookie definitions
• File Permissions
• Separate user and usermeta tables
• FTP and SSH definitions
• Detailed Query information
• Conditional tags; value of the tag
• Theme information
• Template Information
• Cron content and his functions to an cron
• Cache content
• Hooks and filters
• Functions, which respond on hooks and filters
• Contents of arrays to hooks and filters
• All defined constants
• Super Var Dump
• Run WordPress in default mode via url-param
• Add alternative PHP Error reporting: PHP Error
• Inlcude Logging in Chrome Console: ChromePHP
• and many more ...

The plugin does not filter values and should only be used for information and optimization, I don't recommended to use it on a live blog. For developers it can rapidly deliver data, which is useful in a development environment. There are no data in the database and there are no settings. Therefore, the installation is pretty simple: Just upload the Plugin in the Plugin directory or use the automatic installation of the backend to install and activate the Plugin. In the footer of the frontend of the blog, you can see the information.
