Make var_dump’s and print_r’s more readable
Function output references with <a href="http://queryposts.com" rel="nofollow ugc">http://queryposts.com</a> API when possible.
<ul>
<li>Use <code>r</code> instead of <code>var_dump</code></li>
<li>Use <code>rt</code> for text mode.</li>
</ul>
For example:
<pre><code>r($GLOBALS['wp_query']->get_posts());
rt($GLOBALS['wp_query']->get_posts());
</code></pre>
Notes :
<ul>
<li>Probably doesn’t work in ie</li>
<li>Don’t use this on a production site but you probably already know that</li>
<li>More usage <a href="https://github.com/digitalnature/php-ref" rel="nofollow ugc">https://github.com/digitalnature/php-ref</a></li>
</ul>
All the work was done by <a href="https://github.com/digitalnature" rel="nofollow ugc">digitalnature</a> I just wrapped it into a WordPress plugin and changed the look for inline debugging.

Pretty Debug

A WordPress plugin that makes var_dump and print_r pretty!

Krumo is a debugging tool equivalent to print_r() and var_dump(), with the advantage of collapsing array and object values so that it takes less space and let us see only what we really need from complex data.
<a href="http://hikari.ws/krumo/" rel="nofollow ugc">Hikari Krumo</a> ports it to a WordPress plugin, so that Krumo becomes easily available in any WordPress page. Original Krumo has a few bugs fixed and has its options available in an admin page instead of requiring krumo.ini file edited directly.
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>The simplicity of print_r() with the details of var_dump()</li>
<li>Show any data, including its data type</li>
<li>For arrays and objects, internal data are collapsed, so that it takes less space and you can expand to see only those values you really wanna see, spending much less space</li>
<li>Works anywhere in WordPress, backend and frontend</li>
<li>Hide it from visitors and only those who really need to see dump be able to see it</li>
<li>Automatically shows PHP file and line where dump happened, a great tool for debugging</li>
</ul>
