Settings - Debug

Disable debugging

Globally disables all debugs, regardless of individual debug settings.

Debug Import/Export

If disabled, the system does not log debug information for the pages of the Import/Export interface. For performance reasons, it is recommended to leave this option disabled unless you need to debug the Import/Export process.

Debug resources

If disabled, the debug ignores all resource requests (GetResource and GetCSS).

Debug scheduler

If disabled, the debug ignores all operations executed by the scheduler.

Debug everything everywhere

Enables:

• All debug types
• Debugging of user interface pages for all debugs
• Live site debugging (for all debugs)

Enable all debugs

Enables all debugs and the corresponding tabs in the Debug application.

If checked (true), all enabled debugs display their information on the live site below the regular content of pages.

Include UI pages in all debugs

If checked (true), all enabled debugs include actions performed on the pages of the user interface.
