Enable Debug in Production

[Allan - TheTechTribe]

Hi is it best practice to enable debug in production? also, will it include or log AJAX request?

Thanks.

No. Don't enable IN_DEV on a production site. Everything will slow to a crawl since the cache data is rebuilt on each page load, etc.

 

If you really need it, make a test site using a copy of the live site's data (database + files), update conf_global with the test site details, clear the cache in ACP, upload the IN_DEV files, and finally enable the IN_DEV constant in the constants.php file.
