🛠 WP Config Settings

WC Studio gives you developer-level control over key WordPress constants — allowing you to enable or disable debugging, script behaviors, query logs, and core update settings without touching wp-config.php.

​
📍 Go to: WC Studio → Stores → Select a Store → Advanced → WP Config

​
⚙️ Available Config Options

Each setting includes a description and toggle. Use these features responsibly — many are intended for development and debugging only.

​
🐞 Enable Debug Mode (WP_DEBUG)

  • Enables the display of PHP errors and warnings across your site.
  • Useful during development to catch code issues.
  • 🔴 Recommended: OFF on live sites.

​
🪵 Log Errors

  • Stores error logs in a file for easier debugging.
  • Allows you to investigate issues without showing them to visitors.
💡 Use this with debug mode enabled to capture detailed logs without exposing them publicly.

​
⚠️ Display PHP Errors (WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY)

  • Displays PHP errors directly on the frontend.
  • 🔴 Recommended: OFF unless you’re actively debugging.

​
🧪 Enable Script Debug

  • Forces WordPress to use unminified core JS and CSS files.
  • Helps developers diagnose issues in core scripts.
  • 🔴 Should be disabled in production environments.

​
🚫 Disable JavaScript Concatenation

  • Prevents WordPress from combining JS files in the admin panel.
  • Useful for debugging issues caused by script conflicts or minification.
  • 🔴 Leave disabled unless you’re troubleshooting.

​
📉 Enable Save Queries (SAVEQUERIES)

  • Logs all database queries to help you analyze performance.
  • May slow down your site if left on.
  • 🟡 Use temporarily in staging or dev environments.

​
🛡 Disable WordPress Core Updates

  • Prevents automatic updates to WordPress core.
  • Useful if you’re managing updates manually or running a heavily customized site.
⚠️ Note: Keep track of security patches if you disable auto-updates.

​
💡 Pro Tips

  • Always test these settings in a staging environment before applying them to live stores.
  • Combine error logging with object cache for safe debugging workflows.
  • Revert all debug-related settings to OFF before launching.
