The plugin used to work very well, but with the latest update the debug log cannot be cleaned. This has been reported as a bug 2 months ago with no response and no other update. This is why I’m giving the plugin 2 stars. There are other plugins that work better.

Great plugin because it’s no-frills and just does its job. I just wish the refresh button would work on multiple clicks. It seems to only work once and then you either need to delete the logs or refresh the page for it to work again.

My go-to debugging plugin for 500 internal server errors and anything that’s trickier to track. Good job.
