Debugging Console {#chapter.debugging.console}
 | 
						|
=================
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There is a debugging console included with Smarty. The console informs
 | 
						|
you of all the [included](./language-builtin-functions/language-function-include.md) templates,
 | 
						|
[assigned](../programmers/api-functions/api-assign.md) variables and
 | 
						|
[config](./language-variables/language-config-variables.md) file variables for the current
 | 
						|
invocation of the template. A template file named `debug.tpl` is
 | 
						|
included with the distribution of Smarty which controls the formatting
 | 
						|
of the console.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Set [`$debugging`](../programmers/api-variables/variable-debugging.md) to TRUE in Smarty, and if needed
 | 
						|
set [`$debug_tpl`](../programmers/api-variables/variable-debug-template.md) to the template resource
 | 
						|
path to `debug.tpl`. When you load the page, a Javascript console window will pop
 | 
						|
up and give you the names of all the included templates and assigned
 | 
						|
variables for the current page.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To see the available variables for a particular template, see the
 | 
						|
[`{debug}`](./language-builtin-functions/language-function-debug.md) template function. To disable the
 | 
						|
debugging console, set [`$debugging`](../programmers/api-variables/variable-debugging.md) to FALSE. You
 | 
						|
can also temporarily turn on the debugging console by putting
 | 
						|
`SMARTY_DEBUG` in the URL if you enable this option with
 | 
						|
[`$debugging_ctrl`](../programmers/api-variables/variable-debugging-ctrl.md).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> **Note**
 | 
						|
>
 | 
						|
> The debugging console does not work when you use the
 | 
						|
> [`fetch()`](../programmers/api-functions/api-fetch.md) API, only when using
 | 
						|
> [`display()`](../programmers/api-functions/api-display.md). It is a set of javascript statements
 | 
						|
> added to the very bottom of the generated template. If you do not like
 | 
						|
> javascript, you can edit the `debug.tpl` template to format the output
 | 
						|
> however you like. Debug data is not cached and `debug.tpl` info is not
 | 
						|
> included in the output of the debug console.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> **Note**
 | 
						|
>
 | 
						|
> The load times of each template and config file are in seconds, or
 | 
						|
> fractions thereof.
