It's possible all other people are wonderfully organised and never lose track of when they turn debugging on but just maybe there are other people out there who think it would be great if Civi had some visual reminder of when debug is on....

Hi Eileen - I agree since it's not a good thing to leave debug enabled on production sites. I've added a warning displayed on all non-public pages for 3.1. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Sandbox gets updated from svn periodically. Should show up there in the next 24 hours or so :-)

Would it be possible to have a per user debug ?

Eg. a new access right, so the dev/admin can see the debug, but not the others ?

Currently debug setting is stored in civicrm_domain.config_backend - so user specific setting would require a schema change (and not sure how much code change in how config object is built and managed).

I see,

I know we do have a different opinion on the config in the config file vs. in the db, but what would be the technical implication of:

we add a $debug_access_required = "civicrm admin" (or civicrm access or any of the defined access levels).

If the current user has the right permission and the debug is on in the civicrm_domain.config_backend, then the debug is printed. If not no debug.

For compatibility reasons, if the debug_access_required is undefined, same behaviour as now.

Would it have a technical implications, eg slowing down the system, or being complicated to add, or ... ?

Otherwise, I'd put by default that only admins can see the debug, and be happy leaving the debug on all the time in production
