### Admin Bar Widget



The admin bar widget gives you glanceable information such as debug log mode and error count where ever you are in wp-admin.  You will always know when there are errors and can access the log viewer with on click for additional details.



This is one of my favourite features.



### Toggle Debugging



Now you can enable/disable debugging with a click.  No need to manually edit wp-config.php anymore.  Go to the help section, follow the easy instructions to enable this feature and you are ready to go.



### Smart Download



When you click to download debug.log, a smart log version will be downloaded.  What is a smart log?  It's a version of debug.log that is similar to group view.  Only a the latest unique entry for each error will be included.



This makes it much easier to analyse the file, scan for errors and skip all the redundancy.



### One Click Error Filtering



You can filter errors with just one click on the error legend.  Click on multiple error types to filter by multiple error types.  Click a second time to deselect an error type.  This feature works great with custom errors.



### Clear Log



Easily clear your debug.log file with one click.



### Group View



Log entries are group making it much easier to see each unique error.  You can click to list the date and times when the error occured.  Grouped entries can be sorted by newest or latest.



### List View



All log entries are listed by date and time and can be sorted by newest or latest.



### Sort By Date



Log entries can be sorted by date by newest or latest in either list or group views.



### Automatic Refresh



Log automatically refreshes to display new errors.  No need to manually refresh the screen.  However, there is a link to manually refresh if desired.



### Realtime Search



Quickly search and find specific errors.



### Custom Errors



Now you can easily define custom error messages.  When that error occures in your log file it can have it's own color coding, count and label.  Testing for custom errors or issues is now much easier.



### Error Color Legend



Errors are color coded to make it easier to identify certain errors such as fatal, notices, warnings, deprecated and database.



### Debug Status



Debugging status is located at the top of the viewer and admin bar to make it easy to see if debugging is enabled or disabled.



You can also see log size and last modified timestamp.  This information automatically updates when changed.



### Dashboard Widget



This widget gives you a quick summary regarding how many and what type of errors are in the log view.  You can also access the log viewer with just one click.



### Persistent Settings



Customize your log viewer to your heart's content.  Your settings such as view, sort order, sidebar folding and more persist accross logins.  When you login as your user, log viewer will be just like you left it.
