This plugin adds a Dashboard widget that displays the latest messages from your PHP error log. It can also send you email notifications about newly logged errors. Show Features
Usage Once you’ve installed the plugin, go to the Dashboard and enable the “PHP Error Log” widget through the “Screen Options” panel. The widget should automatically display the last 20 lines from your PHP error log. If you see an error message like “Error logging is disabled” instead, follow the displayed instructions to configure error logging. Email notifications are disabled by default. To enable them, click the “Configure” link in the top-right corner of the widget and enter your email address in the “Periodically email logged errors to:” box. If desired, you can also change email frequency by selecting the minimum time interval between emails from the “How often to send email” drop-down. Screenshots

Quite Good but No Display full Log Option (or other filtering)dbareis January 23, 2023 It is certainly useful and has a few options but installation is manual. It doesn't have any display log option to view filtered out messages. Email notification doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure about those people complaining about no clean uninstall, I don't see how they could expect that given that there was no installation done by the plugin (therefore no "clean install" either)... Excellent and helpfulAlbertine Ahmadi April 26, 2022 A very helpful tool for efficient debugging. The pro version provides stack trace and context. Thank you! Essential Toolmultmediadesigns January 30, 2022 I have now been using the pro version of this plugin for 3 years. It has become an essential tool in my plugin development, in a real environment vs a staging area. Over and over again, I have also been able to track down problems in other plugins, notifying the designer or disabling accordingly. Highly recommended. Requires opt-in for permissionsKate July 1, 2021 This plugin requires an opt-in for permissions before it does anything. It's supposed to display PHP logs locally. Yet it requires an opt-in for permissions to reach out and send stuff through another service. 👎 No clean uninstallads May 31, 2021 Hello, It's a decent plugin who unfortunately lost 2 stars because it's leaving a mess when deleted. - It keeps the folder with it's own log file and data. - The cron job remains. - All the tables are left in the database. I will be glad to review this rating when you offer a clean uninstall of Error Log Monitor plugin. The bare minimum would be to have a website page listing everything that needs to be manually deleted upon uninstall. Quite basic. Thank you. Excellent plugin for debuggingarneocnuyrmous May 28, 2021 This plugin does the job of showing the error messages very well! It is easy to use. I'm very happy with the plugin just it could have been better if they can add functionality for showing it in a separate tab instead of the dashboard.
