Technical deep dive

WordPress: deepen diagnosis without hiding the root cause

Technical checkpoints

  • WP_DEBUG_LOG usually writes to wp-content/debug.log only when WP_DEBUG is enabled and the PHP process can write the file.
  • Renaming a plugin directory prevents it from loading without changing the database, which is useful when wp-admin is unavailable.
  • WP_MEMORY_LIMIT cannot exceed the memory actually granted by PHP/hosting; memory errors require reading memory_limit and peak usage.

Controlled recovery

Isolate the failing plugin or layer, keep logs, then re-enable one component at a time.

define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);

Topic-specific pitfalls

  • Deleting .maintenance, a plugin or cache without recording initial state can make the symptom disappear without explaining the cause.
  • A redirect loop can come from WordPress, proxy/CDN, HTTPS or a plugin: check each layer separately.

How to validate

  • The site loads with clean logs and the failing component is identified, not merely disabled.
  • Temporary debug constants are removed or adjusted after the intervention.
