Identifying Conflicts
One common issue faced by WordPress users is plugin conflicts. These conflicts can cause your site to behave unexpectedly or even crash. To identify a plugin conflict, start by deactivating all your plugins, then reactivate them one by one, checking your site’s functionality each time you activate a plugin. This process helps pinpoint the exact plugin causing the issue.
Using Plugin Tools
For a more systematic approach, consider using a plugin like Health Check & Troubleshooting. This plugin allows you to troubleshoot issues by enabling a troubleshooting mode, wherein only the user logged in can see the site in troubleshooting mode while other visitors will see the site as usual.
Resolving Conflicts
Once a conflict is identified, check the plugin’s documentation or support forums for a fix. If no solution is available, you may need to find an alternative plugin that does not cause conflict, or contact the plugin author for support. In cases where conflicting plugins are essential for your site, a developer’s assistance might be necessary..
