Debugging Elgg
From Elgg Documentation
There are a couple of things you can do to get debugging on Elgg. However, the most reliable is to add the following lines to the top of the script that is causing issues. In my case, when developing folio, I found that putting them in mod/folio/lib.php would causes errors to pop up.
ini_set('display_errors','1'); ini_set('display_startup_errors','1'); error_reporting (E_ALL);
You can also enable errors in htaccess and using the control panel. However, some errors still will not pop up, leaving you with a blank screen.
