# Debugging issues with the Freemius WordPress SDK

Freemius has inbuilt options for debugging and logging issues so as to make the integration process easier for developers. Here is how to enable and use these features:

## Access the Freemius Debug Page[​](#access-the-freemius-debug-page "Direct link to Access the Freemius Debug Page")

To get information about the active SDK, Freemius-powered products on the site, users, and more, you need to access the Freemius Debug page.

Opening up the Freemius debug page, enables you to discover any issues going on with the SDK and/or your integration.

To activate it, set `WP_FS__DEV_MODE` to `true` in the `the wp-config.php` as below:

```
define( 'WP_FS__DEV_MODE', true );
```

This adds a new **Freemius Debug** admin menu item located directly underneath the **Settings** menu in the WP Admin.

If you don't have debugging enabled, then you can reach this page by manually navigating to `{domain}/wp-admin/admin.php?page=freemius`. It will open up the page which displays as:

tip

Sometimes, issues can be solved just by clearing the Freemius API cache, which you can do via the debug page.

This page activation will automatically activate the logger that outputs all logs to your browser's debugging console.

## Output Logs to Screen[​](#output-logs-to-screen "Direct link to Output Logs to Screen")

You can output all logs to the screen by adding `&fs_dbg_echo=true` to the query string.

Security Tip

Adding `fs_dbg_echo=true` to the query string will only work when Freemius is set to [development mode](https://freemius.com/help/help/documentation/wordpress-sdk/testing/.md#setting-freemius-into-development-mode). Therefore, websites using your product are not at risk of exposing the logs unless an administrator sets `WP_FS__DEV_MODE` to `true` or manually toggles on the debugging switch in the *Freemius Debug* page.

## Debug Bar Integration[​](#debug-bar-integration "Direct link to Debug Bar Integration")

Additionally, if you are using [Debug Bar](https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar/), Freemius SDK logging is fully integrated with it to make debugging even easier with its UI.
