How can I debug Django decorators effectively?

Debugging Django decorators can be tricky. You can start by adding print statements to check the flow of execution.

What if the decorator is not being called at all?

If the decorator isn't being called, ensure it's applied correctly to the function and check for any conditional logic that might prevent it.

Are there any tools that can help with debugging?

Yes, you can use tools like Django Debug Toolbar or even Python's built-in pdb for step-by-step debugging.

Can you give an example of a common decorator issue?

A common issue is forgetting to return the wrapped function in the decorator, which can lead to unexpected behavior.
