Feature Request: Quick Link to view error_log #755

Open MadtownLems opened 1 year ago

MadtownLems commented 1 year ago

With all the new ajax-y block editor and site editor stuff, I find that sometimes there are php errors that QM can't/doesn't display, and I find myself going to the ole' PHP error_log file. However, that's a bit annoying in practice: sftping the error log down, opening it, going to the end, etc. (ours aren't available via the web so can't just bookmark it or whatever)

I was wondering if you'd consider adding a quick link to view the last several lines of the PHP error log directly through QM.

Currently, the "Environment" tab tells me where the WP_DEBUG_LOG is. Perhaps it could have a little expansion button there that shows the last couple of lines? (similar to how you can expand the "Error Reporting" or "Extensions" sections.

Thanks for considering!

I've used Error Log Monitor in the past for this but I think it could be useful to have in Query Monitor too. I'll have a think about it.
