Fatal Error Notify

Fatal Error Notify hooks into PHP’s “shutdown” function to send notifications right before the page stops loading. Even the dreaded “500 – Internal Server Error” still triggers PHP’s shutdown actions. Even if your site is completely offline, in most cases this plugin will be able to detect the error and notify you.

Fatal Error Notify Pro includes several additional features, like Slack notifications, the ability to hide the plugin settings, multisite support, logging of recorded errors, out of memory handling, the ability to pause individual notifications, and more.

Fatal Error Notify Pro also includes integrations with Gravity Forms, WooCommerce, WPForms, WP Fusion, and WP Mail SMTP and can send notifications when errors are logged in those plugins.

Yes, you can use the filter fen_ignore_error, like so:

function fen_ignore_error( $ignore, $error ) {

    if( $error['file'] == '/home/username/public_html/wp-includes/class-phpass.php' ) {
        $ignore = true;
    }

    return $ignore;

}

add_filter( 'fen_ignore_error', 'fen_ignore_error', 10, 2 );

The $error variable is an array containing:

• $error['type']: (int) The PHP error code
• $error['message']: (string) The error message
• $error['file']: (string) The path to the file that triggered the error
• $error['line']: (int) The line number that triggered the error

Yup, you bet! You can update the plugin settings using WP CLI, for example to set a default list of error levels, or a notification email address.

The two methods are get_option and update_option. For example:

wp fatal-error-notify get_option slack_notifications

Will tell you if Slack notifications are enabled on the site.

wp fatal-error-notify update_option notification_email email@domain.com

Will update the notification email for the site.

You can also update options on multiple sites using xargs:

wp site list --field=url | xargs -n1 -I {} sh -c 'wp --url={} fatal-error-notify update_option notification_email email@domain.com'

If you are updating options that are stored as arrays (for example levels or plugins) you can use JSON-formatted values. For an example, use get_option first on the field you are trying to update.
