Warning!

Enabling debug mode on a public server may result in malicious clients retrieving sensitive data about your server and possibly gaining access to it. Do not enable debug mode on a public server, unless you understand the implications of your doing! *** Debug mode enables error reporting and prevents loading data from the cache (data is still written to the cache). To enable debug mode, create a file named 'DEBUG' in the root directory of RSS-Bridge (next to `index.php`). For further security, insert your IP address in the file. You can add multiple addresses, one per line. _Notice_: * An empty file enables debug mode for anyone! * The bridge whitelist still applies! (debug mode does **not** enable all bridges) RSS-Bridge will give you a visual feedback when debug mode is enabled: ![twitter bridge](../images/debug_mode.png) While debug mode is active, RSS-Bridge will write additional data to your servers `error.log`. Debug mode is controlled by the static class `Debug`. It provides three core functions: `Debug::isEnabled()`: Returns `true` if debug mode is enabled. `Debug::isSecure()`: Returns `true` if your client is on the debug whitelist. `Debug::log($message)`: Adds a message to `error.log`. It takes one parameter, which can be anything. For example: `Debug::log('Hello World!');` **Notice**: `Debug::log($message)` calls `Debug::isEnabled()` internally. You don't have to do that manually.
