OMG, Query Monitor probably just saved me hours of debugging, tail chasing and a chunk of my sanity. Thanks for explaining and promoting this great plugin!
You mentioned that this video is for people who have some familiarity with node.js and npm and the development environment. But for those who don't, what course/tool/resource would you recommend for them to get up to speed so that the things you talk about on your channel make sense to them? Where would they go to get that knowledge? (Preferably an answer that isn't just "google it" or "go to the wordpress developer docs" would be great.) Thanks!
That's a good/hard question. I'm going to ask around and see. The hard thing about developer tools in general is that they're kinda always in the background, so content about them isn't as popular as content that's more directly showing how to build a specific thing.
I asked around and got strong endorsements for this free course (part of a larger paid course) by Ahmad Awais- who definitely knows his stuff and knows WordPress. nodejsbeginner.com/
awesome! thank you i have query monitor on my website, never realy figure out how to use it properly, i hope now i will know how to use it better and also, my logs (error_log debug file, query monitor logs, js console logs) are full of errors from plugins and it come to the point that i cant rely on that logging systems because its just flooded with info, so i use var_dump or xdebug instead, do you have any idea on how to clear my logs?
You can delete wp-content/debug.log to clear that log. Then load one page on your site to collect a snapshot of a single page. But if your plugins are all showing console errors, php notices, etc, then you should definitely revisit those plugins and maybe post on the support forum! That should not be the case.
@@BrianCoords this is actually what im doing every time, deleting debug.log and load a page. still, those plugins fill it realy quick i will try to talk to them and see what can be done i have come to a point where i think of implementing my own error log function just to avoid the other plugins
4 second for External API Request is too much. Wordpress admin also has lot's of external requests (wp_http). To optimize wordpress admin for speed you may need to block some wp_http external requests.

Yes! That's great to hear.
Great video. I’ve used Query Monitor but it was great to learn some new uses from your vid!
That's great! I only recently learned the whole 'logging' aspect and now I use it all the time.
Cool video Brian and thanks a lot for give us a closer vision on Query Monitor!
Wow, I didn't know about the logging feature. I've only been using it for years to check for errors and slow queries
Same here- I was using it for years before I actually learned about logging. Now I use it all the time.
Hey Brian great video, I know I’m going to love this series
Thanks for watching!
This is super helpful video. Didn't know that Quary monitoring was this powerful
Yep this really only scratches the surface. They have great documentation showing even more features: querymonitor.com/wordpress-debugging/how-to-use/
Signed up - Looking forward to the series!
Thanks! Let me know what you think.

@@BrianCoords Thanks for the reply. I look forward to hearing what you find out. :-)

Yeah it's definitely not ideal, especially if it's happening when server response speed is critical, like adding items to a shopping cart.
