Hi, I have a WordPress site and because it is old (very old!) how can I hide PHP errors?
For example here are some of the errors:
- The submenus are not showing because of some Walker class.
- The styles are gone! Instead of showing Areal as a font a Times New Roman is displayed.
Here are the errors I am getting (btw - I cannot get into the admin dashboard because of them!):

I know that in the wp-config.php in the root of the site there is a line of code:
define('WP_DEBUG', false);
but how can I edit it?
Thanks!

To totally hide the PHP errors in wp-config.php you must replace:
define('WP_DEBUG', false);
with:
ini_set('display_errors','Off'); ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL ); define('WP_DEBUG', false); define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false);

You can also debug the errors in your WordPress system;
For this purpose, you can add these line of code in wp-config.php:
Replace:
define('WP_DEBUG', false);
WITH (you can also read the comments in the code):
define('WP_DEBUG', true); //Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true); //false == Showing errors ONLY in /wp-content/debug.log file NOT in the site define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);

You can watch this useful video about debugging WordPress sites:
Or you can use some debugging WP plugins.
