 * The plugins that are being debugged are using deprecated functions.
 * Ive used WP_DEBUG in the past and it has worked fine, displaying all errors and
   deprecated functions at the top of every screen.
 * Now when I set it to true nothing happens.

 * There has to be something stupid I’m doing/overlooking that are causing the errors
   to be hidden.
 * I’m just not sure what it could be.

 * Have you tried looking in wp-content/debug.log?

 * Remove any existing debug macro from your wp-config.php file. Then try adding
   the following towards the middle of your wp-config.php file:
 *     ```
       define('WP_DEBUG', true);
       if (WP_DEBUG) {
           define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
           define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);
           @ini_set('display_errors', 0);
       }
       ```
