PHP Error Logging

The Site Error Logs page in Varsuite Core gives you real-time visibility into PHP errors and exceptions occurring on your connected site.

Instant Visibility of Issues

At the top of the page, you’ll be notified if Varsuite Core has detected errors:

“We detected X different errors on your site”

These can range from critical execution-halting issues to minor notices or deprecated function usage.

Error Log Table Breakdown

Each error entry contains:

• Origin File path and line number where the issue occurred.

• Message Full PHP error message including detailed stack trace.

• Last Occurred Timestamp of the most recent occurrence of that error.

• Occurrences Number of times that error has been triggered.

• Actions Option to DELETE the individual error log or use DELETE ALL ERROR LOGS to clear the full log history.

Parse Error	Syntax error that prevents script execution
Notice	Informational messages about code quality

Compile Error	Errors during the script compilation phase
Compile Warning	Non-fatal issues during script compilation
User Error	Manually triggered user-defined errors
User Warning	Custom warnings triggered via trigger_error()
User Notice	Informational user-defined messages
Strict	Code that doesn't adhere to PHP best practices or future standards
Recoverable Error	Errors that can be caught by a custom error handler

Developer-Focused Debugging

Each entry includes a stack trace, like:

Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method ActionScheduler::run()...

This helps developers:

• Quickly find the file, line, and context of the error

• Trace dependencies and plugin conflicts

• Diagnose failed backups, plugin crashes, or API integration issues

---

Safe, Secure, and No Server Access Needed

• No need to SSH into the server or access /var/logs/ or cPanel.

• Error logs are fetched securely via the Varsuite plugin and only visible within your dashboard.

• Logs can be cleared with a single click, keeping your environment tidy and focused on current issues.

Best Practices

• Review after updates – Always check logs after plugin/theme or core updates.

• Keep logs tidy – Clear old or fixed issues to focus on active errors.

• Set Alerts – Combine with Monitoring > Alert Rules to notify your team when critical errors are detected or increase in volume.

---

Ideal for:

• Development teams tracking plugin conflicts

• Agencies ensuring high-quality client rollouts

• Debugging staging or production environment issues

• Catching deprecated usage before PHP version upgrades
