Re: [Tiki-devel] Is this why Exceptions are mostly dead in tiki? And they must be changed with Trowable?

Hello Aris,

Not an answer to your question, but here is some information related to error tracking.

Here is a new feature in Tiki23:
* https://dev.tiki.org/GlitchTip
* https://doc.tiki.org/GlitchTip

We'll centralize error messages from various community sites, and this will make it easier to resolve.

We can imagine in the future that each error message shown to end users would have a unique ID, and this will help provide actionable information to developers to solve the problems at the source.

Best regards,

Marc
