Enable Debug Mode and send us a debug log

How to enable Debug Mode in WeeConnectPay and download a debug log to send to support@weeconnectpay.com. Use this when you need to troubleshoot a failing payment, refund, or unexpected error in WeeConnectPay for WooCommerce.

Enable Debug Mode and send us a debug log

When something in WeeConnectPay isn't working as expected (a payment failing, a refund being rejected, an unexpected error message), the single most useful thing you can send our support team is a debug log. It records exactly what your store and our servers exchanged with Clover, so we can pinpoint the cause instead of guessing.

This article walks you through enabling Debug Mode, reproducing the issue so it's captured, downloading the log, and sending it to us.

Before you start

You'll need:

  • Access to your WordPress admin as a user with the Manage WooCommerce capability (usually a Shop Manager or Administrator).

  • The order number (or a clear description of what you were doing) for the issue you want to report.

The debug log is meant for our support team. It contains information specific to your store and your customers, so please send it to us by email rather than posting it on a public forum.

Step 1. Turn on Debug Mode

  1. In the WordPress admin, go to WooCommerce → Settings → Payments → WeeConnectPay.

  2. Scroll down to the Advanced section.

  3. Turn on the Debug Mode toggle. The setting persists as soon as you flip it, no separate save needed.

Step 2. Reproduce the issue

Go back to your store and trigger the same action that produced the problem (place the order, attempt the refund, etc.). The failure now gets captured in the debug log with full detail.

If you can't easily reproduce the issue, that's okay. Send us whatever log you have along with the timestamp and order number, and we'll work from there.

Step 3. Download the log

  1. Return to WooCommerce → Settings → Payments → WeeConnectPay.

  2. Scroll to the Debug Logs section (just below the Advanced section, visible in the screenshot above).

  3. Click Download. Your browser saves a text file containing the logs.

The Clear button next to Download wipes the on-disk log. You don't need to use it for a normal support request, but it's there if you want a clean slate before reproducing a fresh issue.

Step 4. Send the log to support

Email the downloaded log file to support@weeconnectpay.com along with:

  • The order number (or a description of what you were doing).

  • What you expected to happen.

  • What actually happened, including any error message you saw on screen.

Our AI triage agent replies first and asks any follow-up questions needed. A member of our team also reviews every ticket. With the log attached, most issues get diagnosed in the first reply rather than after several rounds of back-and-forth.

Should you leave Debug Mode on all the time?

Generally no. Debug Mode is intentional verbosity for troubleshooting. Once your issue is resolved, turn the toggle off so your logs stay focused and your server isn't writing extra entries on every payment.

If you're actively chasing an intermittent issue, leaving it on for a few days is fine.
