<p>Fullworks Support Diagnostics makes it easier for plugin developers to troubleshoot issues by automatically collecting diagnostic information and providing powerful debugging tools. It discovers installed plugins and provides a framework for plugin-specific diagnostic data collection.</p>
<p>This plugin should only be activated when instructed by plugin support personnel for diagnostic purposes.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Automatic plugin discovery</strong> – Detects compatible plugins with support-config.json files</li>
<li><strong>System information collection</strong> – Gathers essential WordPress environment data</li>
<li><strong>wp-config.php debug management</strong> – Safely modify debug constants with automatic backups</li>
<li><strong>Shortcode scanning</strong> – Identifies shortcodes used across your site</li>
<li><strong>Freemius integration</strong> – Collects license status and Freemius state for premium plugins</li>
<li><strong>REST API endpoints</strong> – Allows secure remote diagnostics with temporary access links</li>
<li><strong>Sensitive data protection</strong> – Masks API keys and other confidential information</li>
<li><strong>Debug log monitoring</strong> – Checks and displays the most recent log entries</li>
</ul>
<h4>Debug Management</h4>
<p>The plugin can safely manage debug constants in wp-config.php:</p>
<ul>
<li>Enable/disable WordPress debugging with a single click</li>
<li>Automatically creates backups of wp-config.php before any modifications</li>
<li>Clearly marks all changes with comment blocks for easy identification</li>
<li>Safely removes all modifications when the feature is disabled</li>
<li>Monitors debug log files for recent entries</li>
</ul>
<h4>Security Considerations</h4>
<ul>
<li>All wp-config.php modifications require explicit admin confirmation</li>
<li>Access keys can be regenerated at any time</li>
<li>Temporary access links expire after 24 hours</li>
<li>API keys and sensitive data are masked in diagnostic reports</li>
<li>REST API endpoint can be disabled if not needed</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage Instructions</h3>
<h4>For Site Owners</h4>
<ol>
<li><strong>Only install when directed by support personnel</strong></li>
<li>Go to Tools <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Plugin Support Diagnostics in your WordPress admin</li>
<li>If instructed, enable debug management and select appropriate debug constants</li>
<li>Click “Generate Diagnostic Data”</li>
<li>Share the diagnostic information with support using one of these methods:
<ul>
<li>Copy to clipboard</li>
<li>Download as JSON</li>
<li>Use the temporary direct access link (valid for 24 hours)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>When troubleshooting is complete, disable any debug options and consider deactivating the plugin</li>
</ol>
<h4>For Plugin Developers</h4>
<p>To make your plugin compatible with Support Diagnostics, create a <code>support-config.json</code> file in your plugin’s root directory. See the example-support-config.json file included in the plugin for reference.</p>

<p><a href="https://github.com/welaika/wordless" rel="nofollow ugc">Wordless</a> is the WP themes framework developed and used by <a href="http://dev.welaika.com" rel="nofollow ugc">weLaika</a>.</p>
<p>As we wrote in the Wordless README:</p>
<pre><code>« Wordless is not meant to be a bloated, all-included tool.
This is why we recommend adding some other plugins
to get the most out of your beautiful WP developer life »
</code></pre>
<p><em>Wordless Extender</em> (WLE from now on) is a starting point for every Wordless theme.<br />
Let’s take a look in depth.</p>
<h3>Plugin Manager</h3>
<p>Never change a winning team! These are our <em>starred</em> plugins; with these we cover the 90% of our developing needs.<br />
You’ll have a control panel inside WLE to list, enable, disable and upgrade plugins from the collection; never search that useful plugin crawling the WP.org repo and have team kickstart projects with always the same plugin set.</p>
<h3>Config Constants</h3>
<p>Manage WP constants (stored in your wp-config.php) directly within the WP backend.</p>
<p>We got inspired by WordPress <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php" rel="nofollow ugc">guidelines</a> and we crafted this little control panel. It is intended for advanced users: we are not interested in making things easy, but we’d like to remember important/complex/abstruse settings and have them always just one click away.</p>
<p>Everytime you’ll update these configs <code>wp-config.php</code> file will be backed-up in <code>wp-config.php.orig</code>. Keep in mind.</p>
<h3>Security fixes</h3>
<p>This is the most important section: improving security.<br />
Most of the tricks are directly from <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Hardening_WordPress" rel="nofollow ugc">Hardening WordPress</a> guide; others are tricks discovered on battlefield.</p>
<p>You have to know what you are doing. Follow the comments in the panel if you are confused. Remind that when you’ll let the plugin rewrite your <code>.htaccess</code> file, it will take a backup copy of the last version in <code>.htaccess.orig</code>.</p>
<p>If you are asking about the things are we doing with your <code>.htaccess</code> go read the template in <code>resources/htaccess.tpl</code>.<br />
Essentially we’ll block access to various files and locations.<br />
We are always at work to improve this section, so if you have some tips open an issue or send a pull request.</p>
<h3>Wordless integration</h3>
<p>WLE menu in the WP backend, will be integrated with the Wordless 0.4+ backend menu, creating <em>one place to rule them all!</em></p>
