Fatal Error Notify Pro sends notifications for fatal errors and other PHP error levels you select. Errors can occur on an individual page or process while the rest of a site remains available. Alerts can help you investigate problems that appear after add-on or theme updates.

Choose which errors to report

Configure the PHP error levels that should trigger notifications. To exclude particular errors, use the fen_ignore_error filter. Its error data includes the PHP error code, message, file path, and line number, so an exclusion can target details of a recorded error.

The plugin hooks into PHP’s shutdown function and sends notifications just before a page stops loading. A 500 Internal Server Error can still trigger PHP shutdown actions. When a site is completely offline, the plugin can detect and report an error in most cases.

Route notifications and review errors

Email notifications are available, and the Pro edition adds Slack notifications and logging of recorded errors. Pro also works with multisite installations, out-of-memory handling, hiding the plugin settings, and pausing individual notifications.

Connect supported extensions

Fatal Error Notify Pro integrates with Gravity Forms, WooCommerce, WPForms, WP Fusion, and WP Mail SMTP. It can send notifications when errors are logged in those extensions.

Manage settings with WP-CLI

Use WP-CLI to inspect or update plugin settings with get_option and update_option. For example, you can check whether Slack notifications are enabled or change the notification email address. You can also pass a site list through xargs to update an option across multiple websites. For settings stored as arrays, such as error levels or selected plugins, supply a JSON-formatted value; check the existing value with get_option first.

Install and configure

Install and activate Fatal Error Notify Pro in WordPress, then set the notification email address, error levels, and other notification options. Configure Slack, multisite, or supported plugin integrations as needed. WP-CLI is available for managing settings from the command line.
