➽ Install/config/uninstall:


......................... 
install:

  the usual.


......................... 
settings:

  - On dashboard, mouseover 'PHP Error Log' header to see 'Configure' link.
      Recommended:
        - Number of entries to show: 20
        - Strip WP root directory ... - yes
        - Most recent first ... - yes
        - Send email notification when log file exceeds 1mb.
        Filters - Show all messages

    Note:
    The plugin gets the log file path from the active PHP configuration. If it's showing a different path than what you set in your wp-config.php, that probably means the code in wp-config.php did not successfully change the PHP configuration. Some possible reasons could include:
    The server configuration does not allow individual PHP scripts to change the error_log setting. Some hosts restrict PHP scripts in this way. This is something you might have to verify with the hosting provider.
    The code is in the wrong place in the file. If it's too far down, it might not work as expected.
    Something else has changed the log file path. This is unlikely, but, in theory, just like you can use ini_set('error_log', '...') in wp-config.php, another plugin or theme could also call ini_set() in its own code and change the log file path to something else.
