Undefined index in easy-wp-smtp.php

Everything is working, this is just a bug report for “View log” functionality. Make sure you have WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY set to true.

Hello,

how to reproduce:

1) enable PHP error output. Every developer knows how to to this, for example, place this into wp-config.php:

define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);
define(‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true);
define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, true);

2) go to WP backend -> Settings -> Easy WP SMTP -> Additional Settings -> View log

3) you will see
<b>Notice</b>: Undefined index: log_file_name in <b>www/wp-content/plugins/easy-wp-smtp/easy-wp-smtp.php</b> on line <b>260</b><br />
at the start of the page

If you don’t see it, then try it with fresh installed plugin.

These are 2 separate issues, not related to each other.

OT: are you able to edit messages in the forum (as a moderator)?

to mods: see original post – please remove everything before wp-content/ from path in the error message. Thanks.

Improved how-to / try this instead:

1) set WP_DEBUG, WP_DEBUG_LOG, WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY to true

2) self destruct

3) enable plugin

4) go to WP backend -> Settings -> Easy WP SMTP -> Additional Settings -> View log

5) you will see
<b>Notice</b>: Undefined index: log_file_name in <b>www/wp-content/plugins/easy-wp-smtp/easy-wp-smtp.php</b> on line <b>260</b><br />
at the start of the page

I can see the message even after checking “Enable Debug Log” to true, saving SMTP settings and sending test message.
The error disappears after sending first message via php mail() function (any contact form plugin uses it).

Now I think this error is minor, however you can fix it anyway 🙂
