Can we use the PS way of profiling and error reporting with TB?

[the.rampage.rado]

I want to use this:

```php/* Debug only / if ($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] == 'error') { define('_PS_MODE_DEV_', true); }else{ define('_PS_MODE_DEV_', false); } / Compatibility warning */ define('_PS_DISPLAY_COMPATIBILITY_WARNING_', false); if (_PS_MODE_DEV_ === true) { @ini_set('display_errors', 'on'); @error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT); define('_PS_DEBUG_SQL_', true); } else { @ini_set('display_errors', 'off');

define('_PS_DEBUG_SQL_', false);

}

if ($SERVER['QUERYSTRING'] == 'profile') { define('PSDEBUGPROFILING', true); }else{

define('PSDEBUGPROFILING', false); } ``` in my defines.inc.php but when I replace the coresponding lines in the file I can't install modules. It gives 'this functionality has been disabled'. I would like to use this function that way instead of the BO option because it quicker and more convenient.

I would love to know the answer too.

Of course you can. It looks like that came from one of my old tutorials. https://dh42.com/blog/discrete-prestashop-debugging/

Thank you, I really need this trick. so helpfull for debugging live site

@lesley - yes, I forgot from where I learned it and thus failed to give you credit!!! Sorry! It's really good addition.

@lesley - today I tested again - when adding this code I'm unable to install modules. The system says: This functionality has been disabled.

EDIT- the same message is shown in Performance also and profiling and debug are ON and can't be turned off?

Probably there are other changes than those in Performance controller that affect how defines is processed?

The system says: This functionality has been disabled.

Typical message when running in demo mode. It's defined by _PS_MODE_DEMO_ in config/defines.inc.php.

But I'm not playing with it... I'm poking debug mode with those lines. And this behaveour is not present in PS for sure when editing those lines so it's something else down the pipe...

Make sure you didn't remove this by accident, it directly follows the code section you posted above: php if (!defined('_PS_MODE_DEMO_')) { define('_PS_MODE_DEMO_', false); } Having _PS_MODE_DEMO_ undefined means that PHP takes this sequence of characters as a string and a non-empty string other than '0' evaluates to true.

[doclucas]

A very simple & basic way to check is to add the following code: if ($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] == 'democheck') { if (defined('_PS_MODE_DEMO_')) { echo '_PS_MODE_DEMO_ is defined'; }else{ echo '_PS_MODE_DEMO_ is NOT defined'; } exit; } Right above: if (!defined('_PS_MODE_DEMO_')) { define('_PS_MODE_DEMO_', false); }

Then load your homepage adding ?democheck to the end of the url, like so: www.example.com?democheck It will output on the screen if it's defined or not.

OMG What a lame mistake!!! :D I've deleted the demo row .... :D Sorry guys!

Now it's not giving this notice but it acting again strange. If I have the code pasted the Performance page shows both options as ON. If I turn them off the code is also changed and If I turn them on again the code is true else true... :)
