That’s hard work. Better start soon. If you can’t do it yourself, start studying and researching or hire someone to do it for you.

From my experience

Troubleshooting is a slow and careful process. There are no easy answers to your question. Often times, when you correct one issue, others will pop up.

When troubleshooting and debugging website errors and issues, there are several steps you can take to identify and resolve the problem. Here are some general steps you can follow:

Identify the problem: The first step is to identify the problem you are encountering. Is it an error message? Is the website not displaying correctly? Is there a functionality that is not working as intended? Once you have identified the problem, you can move on to the next step.

Check the error logs: Most web servers keep logs of errors that occur. Check the logs to see if there are any errors related to the problem you are encountering. This can help you narrow down the cause of the issue.

Check the code: If the problem is related to the functionality of the website, check the code to see if there are any errors or bugs. Use debugging tools to step through the code and identify where the problem is occurring.

Test in different environments: If the problem only occurs in a specific environment, such as a particular browser or operating system, test the website in different environments to see if the problem persists.

Use tools and resources: There are many tools and resources available to help you troubleshoot and debug website errors and issues. For example, you can use browser developer tools to inspect the website and identify problems. You can also search online forums and documentation for solutions to common problems.

Test and verify the solution: Once you have identified and resolved the problem, test the website to ensure that the issue has been resolved. Verify that all functionality is working as intended.

Remember that troubleshooting and debugging website errors and issues is a complex process that requires patience and persistence. By following these steps and using the tools and resources available to you, you can successfully identify and resolve the problem.

RE: How do you troubleshoot and debug website errors and issues?

I would start with questions.
– Did the site work and suddenly stop working?
– If “yes”, then what changed?
– Was there a server upgrade or move?
– Did someone update some of the files?
– Was the site hacked?
– Can any recent changes be rolled back?

Based on the platform you are using

In reply to How do you troubleshoot and debug website errors and issues?

Please specify the exact error you are getting and specify the platform you are using for your website, meaning is it custom coded or built on Magento, Shopify, WordPress, etc.

A screenshot of the error will help.

Also there are several online community platforms available on the net for you to post the bugs, but like I said post a screenshot and be more specific about your bug.

Or else get in touch with me and I will help you in fixing the bugs.

Troubleshoot and debug website errors and issues

To troubleshoot and debug website errors and issues, you can follow these steps:

Identify the problem: Start by asking yourself questions such as: What is the problem? When did it occur? What were you doing when the problem occurred? Is the issue happening to everyone or just you? This will help you get a better understanding of the issue.

Check for errors: Look for error messages that may give you some clue about what is happening. Check your server logs, browser console, and any other relevant logs or error reporting tools. Pay attention to any error codes or messages that may help you identify the issue.

Check your code: Once you have identified the error or issue, it’s time to check your code. Make sure your code is error-free, and that there are no typos, syntax errors, or logical errors that may be causing the issue. Check the relevant files and lines of code that are causing the issue.

Check your server: If the issue is not related to your code, it could be a server issue. Check your server settings and make sure everything is configured correctly. Check your server logs for any errors or warnings that may indicate a problem.

Test your website: Test your website in different browsers and on different devices to see if the issue is browser-specific or device-specific. Try to reproduce the problem, and see if you can find any patterns or commonalities that may be causing the issue.

Seek help: If you are still unable to resolve the issue, seek help from other developers, online forums, or your service provider. You can take the consultation from EZ Rankings, they have a professional developers.

Remember that troubleshooting and debugging website issues can be a complex process that requires patience and attention to detail. Don’t hesitate to seek help when you need it, and always keep a backup of your code and files in case something goes wrong.
