WHOIS: Turn On Debugging

If you experience any blank screens or issues with the WordPress WHOIS Plugin, you can turn on the debugging in the plugin to investigate further.

Turning on the debugging will enable PHP and database errors. Mainly, PHP fatal errors and warnings are displayed which will hopefully help you to identify the problem.

Turning On Debugging

To turn on debugging, open the wp-whois-plugin.php file and set $debug = true; and $debug_level = 2; See this screenshot:

Once you’ve turned it on as illustrated and you saved the file, attempt your previous action again where you experienced an issue or got a blank page and it should output a PHP fatal error.
