WordPress errors sent by SMS

    Hi, is it possible to have my WordPress sites send me text messages when the site is having major issues? Not the little piddly ones.

    Like when some feature auto-updates but crashes your site because of conflicts?

    That happened recently when the PHP needed upgrading and it ended up with a white screen of death.

    I have a program that pings the site and if it is down, send me a notification – but often I go check and it’s just internet issues.

    Getting a text message that there is a major error would speed things up.

    Thanks

  • I had a quick look through some plugins, but there isn’t one that pops out immediately for the purpose you have in mind.

    You may want to take a look at some of these plugins:

    You may want to look for a plugin that offers hooks and then code custom notification events / hire a developer to do so for you.

    All the best ??

    Thanks for the reply – after I posted I did several Google searches with the correct context, always the key, and found almost what I wanted.

    A WP plugin named “Fatal Error Notify” – more than I expected to find.

    It sends an email when errors are thrown; these are the ones that are selectable:

    E_ERROR
    E_WARNING
    E_PARSE
    E_NOTICE
    E_CORE_ERROR
    E_CORE_WARNING
    E_COMPILE_ERROR
    E_COMPILE_WARNING
    E_USER_ERROR
    E_USER_WARNING
    E_USER_NOTICE
    E_STRICT
    E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR
    E_DEPRECATED
    E_USER_DEPRECATED

    I checked them all to start to see what happens.

    As soon as I installed, it sent me an email notify that my debugger was turned on in my wp-config file – I was in there working a couple of days ago and forgot to turn it off when I was done.

    Now I’m waiting to see what else I screwed up. ??

    Thanks again.
