WordPress Tutorial – Local Development with MAMP

Feb 2012 | 0 min read

The code for your wonderful debugging. It will create a debug.log file inside /wp-content

/**
 * For developers: WordPress debugging mode.
 *
 * Change this to true to enable the display of notices during development.
 * It is strongly recommended that plugin and theme developers use WP_DEBUG
 * in their development environments.
 */
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);
@ini_set('display_errors', 0);

/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

Enjoy!

Good tips for debugging. All your tips rock! Your Dreamhost fix worked out great for us too. Needed it for QuickDeploy with DesktopServer (http://serverpress.com/products/desktopserver), now designing WordPress sites and deploying to Dreamhost is a snap! Thank you!

Glad you found it useful! I know when I first started developing anything in WordPress, the debug.log was my best friend.
