The “key” icon will change into a “terminal” icon, click on it to open the PHP Console eval & options form.
After entering the correct password, you can use the Eval Terminal in the PHP Console eval & options form and run any PHP code from it, including WordPress’s own functions: enter one or more lines of PHP code in the black Eval terminal screen, press Ctrl+Enter and see the result in Chrome Dev Tools JavaScript console.
The result includes the output, the return value and the net server execution time.
In your PHP code on the Server, you can call PHP Console debug statements like PC::debug( $var, $tag ) to display PHP variables in the JavaScript console and optionally filter selected tags through the PHP Console eval & options form opened from the address bar in your browser.
In the JavaScript console you will see printed any `PC::debug()“ information, PHP errors, warnings, notices with optional stack trace, which will be useful to debug your plugin or theme.
