          What is LogMate?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

          LogMate is a WordPress debug log viewer<\/strong> and log manager<\/strong>. It lets you read, search, purge, and export logs<\/strong> from the admin area instead of downloading debug.log<\/code> over FTP or SSH.<\/p><\/dd>\n

          How do I view the WordPress debug log?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
            \n
          1. Install and activate LogMate.<\/li>\n
          2. Go to LogMate \u2192 Settings<\/strong> and enable debug logging (this configures WP_DEBUG<\/code> and related constants in wp-config.php<\/code>).<\/li>\n
          3. Open LogMate \u2192 Logs<\/strong> to use the log viewer<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

            If the debug log<\/strong> is empty, trigger the issue you are debugging on the site, then refresh the log viewer<\/strong>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            How do I enable WordPress debug logging?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            In LogMate \u2192 Settings<\/strong>, use the main logging toggle. LogMate can enable debug logging and set the log file path in wp-config.php<\/code> for you. You can also turn logging off from the same screen when you are finished debugging.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Where are my logs stored?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            PHP entries are written to your configured WordPress debug log<\/strong> file (often wp-content\/debug.log<\/code> or a custom path). JavaScript errors can be logged to a separate JS log<\/strong> file when that option is enabled in Settings<\/strong>. System Info<\/strong> shows file paths and sizes.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Can I search and filter logs in the log viewer?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. The Logs<\/strong> screen includes search, log type filters (All, PHP, or JavaScript), sorting, and pagination so you can find specific errors quickly without opening raw logs<\/strong> in a text editor.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Can I export logs?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. Click Export<\/strong> on the Logs<\/strong> screen to export logs<\/strong> as a downloadable file. Choose PHP logs<\/strong>, JavaScript logs<\/strong>, or all logs<\/strong>, and optionally restrict the export by date range.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Can I delete or purge old logs?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. In Settings<\/strong>, use the purge options to remove logs<\/strong> before a date or keep only the last number of days, weeks, or months. You can purge all logs<\/strong>, PHP logs<\/strong> only, or JS logs<\/strong> only.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Does the log viewer support auto-refresh?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. Enable Auto-refresh logs<\/strong> in Settings<\/strong>, then set a custom refresh interval (in seconds). The log viewer<\/strong> will reload logs<\/strong> automatically so new errors appear without manual refresh.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Does this work with PHP and JavaScript logs?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. LogMate is a debug log viewer<\/strong> for both PHP log<\/strong> entries (PHP notices, warnings, errors, etc.) and JS log<\/strong> entries when JavaScript error logging is turned on in Settings<\/strong>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Do I still need FTP to read debug.log?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            No. LogMate is designed as an in-dashboard log viewer<\/strong> so you can read and export logs<\/strong> without FTP, cPanel File Manager, or SSH \u2014 as long as WordPress can write to the log files.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Is it safe to use on a live site?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Debug logging can grow large and may contain sensitive paths or data. LogMate helps you purge logs<\/strong> and export logs<\/strong> for review, but you should disable debug logging on production when you are not actively troubleshooting.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Who can access the log viewer?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Only users with the manage_options<\/code> capability (typically administrators) can open LogMate, change Settings<\/strong>, purge logs<\/strong>, and export logs<\/strong>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Will this work with managed WordPress hosting?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            It should work on most managed hosts that allow wp-config.php<\/code> changes and standard WordPress debug log<\/strong> locations. Some hosts use custom log paths or restrict wp-config.php<\/code> edits \u2014 check System Info<\/strong> in LogMate or ask your host if logging cannot be enabled.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
