## Description

This plugin helps you to read Xdebug messages inside the WordPress backend, without
the need to adjust them everytime.
 It simply indents the Xdebug messages, so that
these are no longer partly hidden underneath the admin menu. And it will also give
you links to directly search for the error message on Google or Stackoverflow.

If you have issues or want to help [head over to GitHub](https://github.com/apermo/apermo-xdebug)!

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/apermo-xdebug` directory, or
    install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the ‘Apermo AdminBar’ plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. That’s all folks.

## FAQ

  Installation Instructions

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/apermo-xdebug` directory, or
    install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the ‘Apermo AdminBar’ plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. That’s all folks.

  Are there any requirements?

Yes, of course, you need to have Xdebug active on your webserver.

  Where are the Plugin Options?

This plugin does not have any, so just activate it, and relax.

  Can I change or add more search engines?

Sure, use the filter `apermo_xdebug_search_urls` and alter the array.
 The URL requires
to add ‘+search_url+’ since this will be added to the JavaScript of the plugin. 
This is raw Javascript added here, it’s not ideal, but I think more flexible in 
case you need to do something more with the search_url string.

  Should I use this on a production website?

Since you should not use ‘display_errors’ on a production system, it makes no sense
using this plugin there.
 The plugin automatically skips it’s execution if display_errors
is turned off or Xdebug is not active. At the current moment I decided against automatically
disabling the plugin in this cases, I might reconsider this in the future.

  I have an issue, or I want to help with the development of this plugin.

Head over to the [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/apermo/apermo-xdebug) and
start reading. Every bit of help is highly appreciated!

  Note on the Version Requirement

The Plugin will actually work with lower WordPress Versions, but in that case translations
won’t work. But you should consider upgrading you WordPress in that case.
