I developed this special article page when filling out my Support Ticket, and thought it might be helpful, especially if your forum is like mine, with many Packages. This script began as just a easy compiler for that list, but I expanded it to include as much as I could automate.
Edit: I found I didn't resolve all the errors before publishing this. Fixed now, no errors found.
Issues: Language doesn't populate, and I'm not entirely sure why, even after I've forced the variable. Maybe a second set of (more experienced) eyes can see the problem? But, I'm still unsure where to collect the Default Language in SMF.- I also looked to see if there was a reliable way to get the browser and version, and from what I can find, there isn't any reliable way that can be guaranteed.
- The Theme that you're using isn't correctly being identified. It does determine the forum default, but for example, in my case, I've got a different Theme selected, yet it's not reporting it. Maybe the id_theme in the members table isn't the place to locate that information anymore?
There are a few variables that can be customized:
- firstUserID is typically the (read: assumed) Administrator, the member that installed the forum. Default is 1, feel free to change it if needed.
- errCnt is the number of errors from the log to count backwards from (meaning the top listed error is going to be the most recent one. By default only the last 24 hours are retrieved, and the default value of entries is 5.
- defaultLanguage is the language of the forum. Default is English, but feel free to change this if needed. Hopefully, I can figure out why and where the Default Language is set and just use that in the future.
- browser is the name of the browser (and version) that you're using. Feel free to go to Help in your browser and copy/paste that information. I routinely use two browsers, so I have both of them listed.

Here is an example. The errors listed below are only because I didn't want to clear out my log while testing. As of right now, you have to manually Select All and Copy, however, I'm hoping that I can find a way to just click on a link/button and have the output automatically copied to the Clipboard. Maybe somebody already knows how to do that?
