It turns out that all WP_DEBUG_LOG does is:
1 2 | ini_set( 'log_errors', 1 ); ini_set( 'error_log', WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/debug.log' ); |
So, if you want to change the log location for WP_DEBUG_LOG in a plugin or theme, webaware’s answer is best. If you just want to have it changed within wp-config.php
you can replace define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
with the above 2 lines and change the log file to wherever you want.
