Best Practices during Plugin Development Process was created by riasilva
Hello everyone.

I am a newbie at LimeSurvey and I'm trying to create a WhatsApp Notification (using Twilio) for version 4.2.4+200520.

To test my development I zip my folder and upload using plugin manager. But I did not know how to check the errors and problems in my code.

Anyone can provide me some tips about how ZIP the files and how check what is going off?

Thank you!

Hi !

You have the same debugging methods you use on a regular PHP program:
- X-debug
- Logging
- Echo-ing + die()

I usually use direct event method as to trigger the event quicker and reproduce the situations faster.

Hope it helps!
