Multi-File Error Log Switcher & Dashboard Manager

The standard OpenCart admin panel only loads a single pre-configured error log file. If your system or third-party modifications generate separate .log entries, you are typically forced to log into your web hosting panel or request server clearance from a developer. This module eliminates that hurdle by adding a dynamic file selection dropdown directly to your native error log screen.

All System Logs Accessible Directly Inside Your Dashboard

A intuitive dropdown menu displaying all available .log files is injected into the standard system tools layout. The administrator simply selects any file from the list and immediately views its live contents inside the familiar workspace view window.

This approach makes managing e-commerce logs completely independent of FTP clients, file managers, or tedious navigation loops between external hosting accounts.

Operational Features & Workflow Improvements:

• Open and read any necessary log file directly from a centralized dropdown list;
• Inspect fresh server reports immediately after modifying web store options;
• Clear a single selected log file without affecting data stored in other diagnostic documents;
• Identify which specific log file is expanding in size due to recurring system faults.

Changes Applied to the System Log Layout:

• All log records populate a single interface without requiring manual text input of file paths;
• Toggling between different debug and modification records requires just a single click;
• The active file remains selected in the dropdown view even after executing a clear action;
• The native clear button targets the exact log document currently displayed on your monitor;
• System errors become much easier to evaluate immediately after installing plugins, updating design layouts, or editing server directives;
• Store managers no longer need raw web hosting access just to copy and share diagnostic text with their development team.

Technical Security & Architecture: The module securely reads only authorized log formats within the designated system storage directories, preventing directory traversal risks or unauthorized root file exposure. Built following strict OpenCart coding guidelines, it utilizes native file handling protocols without overwriting core framework scripts or database tables.
