Error Logs
Capture and review your WordPress PHP errors, right in the app.
Error Logs collects PHP errors, warnings, and fatal errors from your site into one readable view in the WP Tailwatch app and dashboard. Spot a failing plugin, trace a white-screen crash, and debug fast, no SSH or FTP required.
In short
Error Logs is a WP Tailwatch feature that captures PHP errors, warnings, fatal errors, and site errors into one readable view in the app and dashboard. Instead of hunting through raw log files over SSH or FTP, you can spot a failing plugin or theme and debug white-screen issues in seconds.
What it does
Every PHP error, in one readable place.No terminal, no raw log files.
When a WordPress page breaks, the answer is usually buried in a server log you can't easily reach. Error Logs pulls those PHP errors, warnings, and fatal crashes into a clean view so you can find the cause without ever opening a terminal.
- Collects PHP errors, warnings, and fatal errors
- One readable view, no SSH or FTP needed
- Trace a failing plugin or theme by file and line
- Debug white-screen crashes in seconds
How it works
From crash to cause in three steps.No SSH, no FTP, no guesswork.
Capture errors as your site runs, read them in one clean list, and trace each fatal crash back to the plugin or theme behind it. All from your pocket, without touching the server.
1
Capture the errors
WP Tailwatch collects PHP errors, warnings, and fatal errors as your site runs, gathering them from the underlying error log automatically.
2
Read them in-app
Each error appears in one readable list in the app and dashboard, complete with the message, file, and line, no SSH session or FTP client required.
3
Fix the culprit
Trace a recurring fatal error back to the plugin or theme that triggered it, then update, replace, or deactivate it to bring the page back.
Why it matters
Why in-app error logs matter.Reading the error is half the fix.
WordPress runs roughly 43% of all websites, and every one of them is built on PHP, which means a single incompatible plugin, deprecated function, or theme conflict can throw a fatal error and take a page down. Source: W3Techs CMS usage statistics. When that happens, the difference between minutes and hours of downtime is whether you can read the error.
Error Logs removes the friction. Instead of requesting SSH access or FTP-ing into the server to grep through a raw log file, you open the WP Tailwatch app and see exactly what broke and where. That's the WP Tailwatch approach: the answers you need to fix your site, available from your pocket.
