Anti-Cache Kit

Flushes and deactivates cache and optimization plugins, enables debug mode, and provides maintenance mode for WordPress development.

<p><strong>Stop editing wp-config.php every time you need to debug your WordPress site.</strong></p>
<p>Developer Debug Mode lets you toggle all WordPress debug constants directly from your dashboard with beautiful toggle switches. Changes save automatically — no clicking save buttons, no FTP access needed, no risk of syntax errors in your config file.</p>
<h4>🎯 The Problem This Plugin Solves</h4>
<p>Every WordPress developer knows the pain:</p>
<ol>
<li>Something breaks on your site</li>
<li>You need to enable WP_DEBUG to see the error</li>
<li>You open FTP/File Manager, find wp-config.php, edit it carefully</li>
<li>Debug the issue</li>
<li>Remember to turn debug off before visitors see ugly error messages</li>
<li>Repeat next time something breaks</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Developer Debug Mode eliminates steps 2-5 entirely.</strong> Toggle debug on, find the error, toggle off. Done in seconds.</p>
<h4>✨ Key Features</h4>
<p><strong>One-Click Debug Toggles</strong><br />
Control all six WordPress debug constants from a clean, modern interface:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>WP_DEBUG</strong> — Master switch for WordPress debugging</li>
<li><strong>WP_DEBUG_LOG</strong> — Save errors to wp-content/debug.log</li>
<li><strong>WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY</strong> — Show errors on screen (careful on production!)</li>
<li><strong>SCRIPT_DEBUG</strong> — Use unminified core CSS/JS files</li>
<li><strong>SAVEQUERIES</strong> — Log database queries for performance analysis</li>
<li><strong>WP_DISABLE_FATAL_ERROR_HANDLER</strong> — See raw PHP fatal errors instead of recovery mode</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Admin Bar Quick Toggle</strong> <em>(New in 1.2.0!)</em><br />
Toggle any debug constant directly from the WordPress admin bar — no need to visit the settings page. Perfect for quick debugging sessions.</p>
<p><strong>Built-in Debug Log Viewer</strong><br />
View, search, download, and clear your debug.log without leaving WordPress:</p>
<ul>
<li>Color-coded entries (fatal, error, warning, notice)</li>
<li>Search with highlighting</li>
<li>Auto-refresh option for real-time monitoring</li>
<li>One-click download and clear</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Auto-Save Technology</strong><br />
Changes save instantly as you toggle. No save button, no page refresh, no waiting.</p>
<p><strong>Frontend Debug Warning</strong><br />
A tasteful notification bar appears when WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY is active, reminding you to turn it off before visitors see error messages.</p>
<p><strong>Cross-Tab Synchronization</strong><br />
Toggle debug in one browser tab and watch other open tabs update instantly.</p>
<p><strong>Automatic Backups</strong><br />
Every change creates a backup of wp-config.php. The plugin keeps the 5 most recent backups, so you can always recover if something goes wrong.</p>
<h4>🔧 Perfect For</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Theme developers</strong> debugging template issues</li>
<li><strong>Plugin developers</strong> testing new code</li>
<li><strong>Site administrators</strong> troubleshooting problems</li>
<li><strong>Agencies</strong> managing multiple client sites</li>
<li><strong>Freelancers</strong> who need quick debugging without FTP access</li>
<li><strong>Anyone</strong> tired of manually editing wp-config.php</li>
</ul>
<h4>💡 Why Choose Developer Debug Mode?</h4>
<p>Unlike other debug plugins, we focus on <strong>user experience</strong>:</p>
<p>✅ <strong>Instant toggles</strong> — No save buttons, changes apply immediately<br />
✅ <strong>Visual feedback</strong> — Clear status indicators show exactly what’s enabled<br />
✅ <strong>Admin bar access</strong> — Toggle debug from anywhere in WordPress<br />
✅ <strong>Production-safe</strong> — Frontend warnings prevent accidentally exposing errors<br />
✅ <strong>Modern design</strong> — Beautiful UI that fits naturally in your dashboard<br />
✅ <strong>Lightweight</strong> — No bloat, loads only where needed</p>
<h4>🔒 Built With Security In Mind</h4>
<ul>
<li>Capability checks ensure only administrators can change settings</li>
<li>Nonce verification on all AJAX requests</li>
<li>Automatic wp-config.php backups before every change</li>
<li>No data sent to external servers</li>
<li>Clean uninstall removes all plugin data</li>
</ul>
<h4>📚 Debug Constants Explained</h4>
<p>Not sure what each constant does? Here’s a quick guide:</p>
<p><strong>WP_DEBUG</strong><br />
The master switch. When enabled, WordPress will display PHP errors, notices, and warnings. Required for the other debug constants to work.</p>
<p><strong>WP_DEBUG_LOG</strong><br />
Saves all debug messages to <code>/wp-content/debug.log</code>. Essential for debugging issues that happen in the background (AJAX, cron jobs, REST API).</p>
<p><strong>WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY</strong><br />
Shows errors directly on your web pages. Useful during development but <strong>never enable on production</strong> — it can expose sensitive information to visitors.</p>
<p><strong>SCRIPT_DEBUG</strong><br />
Forces WordPress to use the development versions of core CSS and JavaScript files instead of minified versions. Helpful when debugging scripts.</p>
<p><strong>SAVEQUERIES</strong><br />
Stores database queries in a global array for later analysis. Useful for identifying slow queries but adds overhead — disable when not needed.</p>
<p><strong>WP_DISABLE_FATAL_ERROR_HANDLER</strong><br />
Disables WordPress’s “recovery mode” so you see the actual PHP fatal error instead of “There has been a critical error on this website.”</p>
