This plugin is basically a wrapper for the excellent dBug (http:\/\/dbug.ospinto.com) class for PHP debugging, written by Kwaku Otchere..<\/p>\n\n

Instead of var_dump or echo, you can call wp_dbug( $variable ) to get clear, dynamic debug output of strings, arrays, or objects.<\/p>\n\n

Thanks to @borkweb, the plugin is now compatible with the WP Debug Bar plugin (http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/debug-bar\/) for extra debugging goodness!<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Download the plugin and unzip it into wp-content\/plugins.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin by going to Plugins and choosing Activate.<\/li>\n
  3. Use for debug output anywhere within WordPress by calling wp_dbug( $variable ).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    Q: This is just a class with a wrapper for WordPress. Why bother?\nA: It took 15 minutes to write, and saves me 5 minutes every time I need to debug a new blog. 'Nuff said.<\/p>\n\n

    Q: Can I use this stuff outside of WordPress?\nA: Yes! Go to http:\/\/dbug.ospinto.com and download the dBug class, then include it in whatever project you're working on.<\/p>","raw_excerpt":"Plugin implements the awesome dBug class created by Kwaku Otchere for use in WordPress plugin debugging","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/9539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9539"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/vhauri"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=9539"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=9539"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=9539"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=9539"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcd.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=9539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
