    Developer here, but WordPress isn't my daily thing. A client's site broke after a bulk plugin update:

    There has been a critical error on this website.

    There has been a critical error on this website.

    The classic critical error page. Their setup has around twenty plugins including a security plugin... i want to find teh exact cause instead of randomly deactivating things and hoping. Whats teh fastest way to see teh real PHP error? Happy to post logs or teh plugin list if that helps narrow it down. pls help 🙏

    lol same thing happened to me turn on logging to see the actual error. in wp-config.php, above teh line that says to stop editing, add define('WP_DEBUG', true);, define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true); and define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);, reload the site, then read wp-content/debug.log. The fatal error line names teh file, which tells you which plugin or theme is responsible.
