Snippet: Enable Debug Console for Specific IP Address Only - Smarty - X-Cart Snippets - X-Cart Mods

Gives you a private debug console for a specific IP address, so as not to disturb customer view...

First apply this SQL patch...

REPLACE INTO `xcart_config` ( `name` , `comment` , `value` , `category` , `orderby` , `type` , `defvalue` , `variants` )
VALUES ('enable_debug_console_ip', 'Only show debug console to this IP address', 'xx.xx.xx.xx', 'General', '611', 'text', '', '');

Then in init.php, replace...

	#
	# Include webmaster mode
	#
	@include_once($xcart_dir."/include/webmaster.php");

	if($config["General"]["enable_debug_console"]=="Y" || $editor_mode=='editor')
		$smarty->debugging=true;

With...

	#
	# Include webmaster mode
	#
	@include_once($xcart_dir."/include/webmaster.php");

	if($config["General"]["enable_debug_console"]=="Y" || $editor_mode=='editor')
#		$smarty->debugging=true;
		if ($config["General"]["enable_debug_console_ip"] == $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) {
			$smarty->debugging=true;
		}

Then go into General Settings and add your IP address.

To view all available Smarty variables in the debug console (ie. not just templates), then in smarty.php, replace...

$smarty->debug_tpl = "file:debug_templates.tpl";

With...

$smarty->debug_tpl = "file:debug.tpl";
