Custom Logs is a powerful and user-friendly plugin designed to help WordPress developers and administrators manage debug logs efficiently. With a modern interface, it offers complete control over custom and WP_DEBUG logs, including custom directories, log levels, and real-time AJAX filtering.

Key Features

  • Custom Log Management: Define custom log file names and directories within the uploads folder.
  • WP_DEBUG Integration: Capture and redirect WP_DEBUG logs to a custom file.
  • Log Levels: Filter logs by severity (None, All, Errors, Warnings, Notices).
  • AJAX-Powered Log Viewer: Dynamically filter log entries by file and type without page reloads.
  • Backup and Clear Logs: Easily back up or clear logs with a single click.
  • Download Logs: Download custom or WP_DEBUG logs directly from the admin panel.
  • Sleek UI: A modern, responsive design with uniform input heights for a polished experience.

This is the initial release (v1.0), providing a robust foundation for log management with advanced features like AJAX filtering built-in from the start.

Usage

  1. Enable Logging: Turn on custom logging and set a log level under “Custom Logging”.
  2. Set Log Files: Specify custom log file names and directories under “General” and “WP Debug Logging”.
  3. View Logs: Use the Log Viewer to select a log file and filter by type (e.g., Errors, Info) with real-time AJAX updates.
  4. Manage Logs: Test, clear, back up, or delete logs from the “Management” section.
  5. Download Logs: Use the “Downloads” section to save logs locally.

To log custom messages, use the custom_logs() function in your code:
`php
customdebug_log(“This is a test message”, “info”);
