Its easy to set the developer mode on all the time on your development environment while working in Magento by editing the .htaccess or apache config file.
Apache config file is better because the settings will be inherited by all the projects you work on on this machine and will spare you from having to remember to re-set the settings before going live.
Here is the command you need to add to the apache (httpd.conf) file:
Open the file as admin:
Locate the lines lookin like these
Options FollowSymLinks
….
Add the followin line just after the
SetEnv MAGE_IS_DEVELOPER_MODE “”
So you have something like
SetEnv MAGE_IS_DEVELOPER_MODE “”
Save and restart apache!
