It’s typically located in your `wp-content` directory at `wp-content/debug.log`.

The plugin works best when `WP_DEBUG` and `WP_DEBUG_LOG` are enabled in `wp-config.php`, but it can still read the file if it exists and has proper read permissions.

Yes — just click the “Clear Log” button to safely empty the log file.
