Post Fixtures let you quickly tear down and set up test environments within your development WordPress environment. This allows you to create post, category, and options configurations to test specific issues and features of your themes and plugins.
Post Fixtures places a new menu item under Tools called Post Fixtures. When you visit the page, you’ll see a large textarea in which to copy and paste your JSON fixture data. Submitting the form with valid JSON data will cause your posts and categories to be deleted & overwritten, and any options provided to be overwritten or deleted.
As of the current release on GitHub, the following WordPress features are supported:
<ul>
<li>Posts
<ul>
<li>Most post data found in the <code>posts</code> table</li>
<li>Post metadata with serialization</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Categories</li>
<li>Tags</li>
<li>Blog options with serialization and deletion</li>
</ul>

Debug Log – Manager Tool

Awesome!

Helps us a lot with development :)

it's exactly what i am after for. instead of connecting to ftp, opening wp-config.php, editing the constants, saving, uploading, reloading site, opening debug.log and deleting it and so on … you simple enable the toggle and look into the logs right in wordpress with nice styling so you can easily distinguish between warning and errors. 
in the future i would like to see more toggles for instance for WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY. for some reason this is missing?! 

simple but good


My go-to debugging plugin for 500 internal server errors and anything that's trickier to track. Good job.


Super useful


Fantastic plugin with an easy interface for browsing. Thank you so much for making it available for free!


Fantastic & easy to use.


The plugin used to work very well, but with the latest update the debug log cannot be cleaned. This has been reported as a bug 2 months ago with no response and no other update. This is why I'm giving the plugin 2 stars. There are other plugins that work better.



--- EDIT ---



Recently I tested the plugin again and it has improved by a lot. I see new functions and - so far - zero bugs. Well done. I improve my rating. Keep up the good work.


Much improved over time

The "Debug Log Config Tool" simplifies debugging. Toggle logging,queries , view levels, clear logs from dashboard.
