“Template Errors” application helps integrators with debugging code within templates by providing extra information about a specific error.
“Template Errors” is located under the “System” > “Sites” section in the administration sidebar area.
Filtering
Template Errors can be filtered by Range, Client and Site:
Range: Select from last 5 minutes to last 14 days
Client: Select a client site (if multisite)
Site: Select a site within the client setup (if multisite)
Example:
“Last 5 minutes” option is useful if the integrator is working on a current issue in the templates and requires to see the most recent errors.
In the event the errors happened sometime earlier then options such as “Last X days” would be more suitable. In most cases “Last 5 minutes” will show 0 errors.
In the event there are errors in the templates they will show in the list.
Each line is a standalone error, for more information about the error click on the “message” link on each item. Depending on the nature of the error extra information will be presented in a pop-up.
