    Hi, I’ve just had the below notification. How would this happen, what does it mean and should I be worried?

    * Publicly accessible config, backup, or log file found: wp-content/debug.log

    Hi,

    If the log is publicly accessible it can reveal paths and other information.

    Check your wp-config.php for the value of
    define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );
    it should be set to false for production websites.

    If you need the debug file for any reason. You can limit the access to it. (via .htaccess for example.)

    If the file is residual from the development phase of your website, you can delete it.
