Compatible with caching plugins?

Hi @archonic08

this plugin is compatible with the most popular cache plugins.

You could have problems with concatenated js/css files, but if these js/css are only minified it’s not a problem at all.

Consider that using this plugin you totally deactivate specific plugins on specific pages. If a third plugin builds a concatenated js or css file, it depends how that third plugin builds that concatenated file.

If the plugin concatenates the files taking them from all the available files, it should not be a problem, but you will have less benefits from Freesoul Deactivate Plugins, because you would load a concatenated file coming from all the plugins. In this case you would just save database queries and PHP parsing time when the page is not served by the cache.

If you have http/2 on your server and you have many heavy plugins, I would prefer to deactivate the unused plugins, if on the contrary, you have many scripts/stylesheets but not a lot of plugins, and your server hasn’t http/2, maybe better to don’t use this plugin if the concatenation would give you more benefits and with this plugin you see that the concatenated files are not built correctly.

So in shorts, with server cache and minified files no problem, with concatenated files you have to evaluate the situation.

Thanks for the reply!
In my case, im using yith frontend manager, but the scripts load on every page causing problem with some of the themes function.
So i want it to load only on its dedicated page “Frontend Manager”. Tested and it works like charm.
On caching side, meaning that I can use the minify features but not the combine features right? (i will test this out)

you are welcome! Yes, you can use the minify features in any case. You can try the combine features, this depends on what method is used to concatenate the files. In any case, the combined file will be loaded on all the pages if the plugin that generated is active. In my opinion, you should test both cases. with and without combination and see what is better, it will depend by how heavy are the plugins and most of all if you have http/2 or not. If you have http/2 on your server, I’m pretty sure that it will be better to renounce to the combination.
