Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about FatalGuard – PHP Error Log Viewer, Debug Log & Fatal Error Alerts
That page hides a PHP fatal error. FatalGuard captures the real fatal error behind the white screen of death and shows you the message, file and line — and can send it to Telegram the instant it happens, with a one-tap link to recover the site by switching off the plugin that caused the critical error.
Install FatalGuard and open its admin-bar item. It shows your debug.log and PHP error_log in a searchable, tabbed viewer inside wp-admin — no FTP, SSH or cPanel needed.
Not by hand. Flip the file-logging switch and FatalGuard writes the standard WP_DEBUG / WP_DEBUG_LOG constants to wp-config.php for you — pointing the log at its protected folder — and restores your original values when you switch it off. If wp-config.php isn't writable on your host, FatalGuard shows you the exact lines to paste.
No. The fatal-error handler always falls back to WordPress's built-in recovery. If anything ever goes wrong, dropping a DISABLE file removes the handler — a recovery path that works even without SSH.
Open FatalGuard and run the Telegram connect wizard: create a bot in @BotFather, paste its token, and press Start. FatalGuard detects your chat automatically and sends a non-blocking message whenever a fatal error is captured — no chat-id hunting.
When a plugin fatals every page, wp-admin goes down too. Your FatalGuard fatal alert includes a secure recovery link: open it on your phone and tap once to deactivate the crashing plugin. It runs from a must-use loader that loads before regular plugins, so it works even when the rest of WordPress can't. Nothing is deleted — re-enable the plugin from Plugins once it's fixed.
Yes. Each link is signed with your site's secret keys, does only one thing (deactivate the one named plugin), and expires after 4 hours. It's the same approach as WordPress core's Recovery Mode email link — a signed link stands in for the login you can't do while the site is down.
Slack, email, Discord and webhook alerts are part of FatalGuard Pro. Telegram is included free.
Yes — with FatalGuard Pro. Pro runs a built-in, read-only MCP server, so you can connect Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client and ask about your site in plain English: "what's the most recurring error this week?", "which deprecations are in my theme?", "what broke after my last deploy?" The AI reads your real captured error history; access is secured by a revocable API key, and nothing is sent anywhere except to the AI client you choose to connect.
In a private, web-protected directory with a non-guessable path — not the standard WordPress debug.log location. Browsers can't read the directory directly. The Status tab shows the exact path on your server.
