A Must-use plugin to filter active plugins in on a per-page basis.

plugin-filter.php

<?php

 * Plugin URI: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/#
 * Description: This is a development plugin

// shortcode to list active plugins 
add_shortcode( 'activeplugins', function(){
	
	$active_plugins = get_option( 'active_plugins' );
	$plugins = "";
	if( count( $active_plugins ) > 0 ){
		$plugins = "<ul>";
		foreach ( $active_plugins as $plugin ) {
			$plugins .= "<li>" . $plugin . "</li>";
		}
		$plugins .= "</ul>";
	}
	return $plugins;
});

$request_uri = parse_url( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH );

$is_admin = strpos( $request_uri, '/wp-admin/' );

if( false === $is_admin ){

	// filter active plugins
	add_filter( 'option_active_plugins', function( $plugins ){

		global $request_uri;

		$is_contact_page = strpos( $request_uri, '/contact/' );

		// change elements according to your needs
		$myplugins = array( 
			"contact-form-7/wp-contact-form-7.php", 
			"code-snippets/code-snippets.php",
			"query-monitor/query-monitor.php",
			"autoptimize/autoptimize.php" 
		);

		if( false === $is_contact_page ){
			$plugins = array_diff( $plugins, $myplugins );
		}

		return $plugins;

	} );
}

Thanks for this snippet it is working, but I need some help please.
I couldn't change the fact that it disables the plugins on all pages && not like in the conditional statement listed in this code

Hi @carlodaniele,

I am developing a site where I am using the SEOPress SEO plugin and WPFORO forum plugin. These two don't play well together because WPFORO also has built in forum functionalities and I need to disable SEOPress on my forum pages that starts with https://domain.com/forums*

Now coming to the point, I have no idea how to integrate your code and I was wondering if you are available for PAID integration of this script.

For context:

This is the only exclusion I want - No SEOPress plugin on pages starting with https://domain.com/forums/ and https://domain.com/forums/*

I am using WP-Rocket plugin but the forum pages are excluded

I would appreciate a reply.

Jimmy

Mate you are awesome!

Salve, in $myplugins = array si specificano i plugin da disabilitare in quella determinata pagina o i plugin consentiti? Per specificare l'uri della Home Page basta inserire '/' come indirizzo? Grazie

As it is today, I am finding the code snippet will indeed deactivate the chosen plugins but will never reactivate them. Accessing the correctly associated URL does not turn them back on. You have to go into the admin panel and reactivate the plug-in after removing this code.

WordPress 5.4
PHP 7.4

I experienced a similar problem when I was developing a very similar plugin. The NextGEN Gallery plugin was updating the active_plugins option at shutdown. My workaround was to run this at shutdown before NextGEN ran its logic.

do_action( 'activate_plugin', __FILE__);

Has anyone been able to get this to work with in_category() or has_term()? I am trying to make a MU plugin that disables plugins one posts and pages in certain categories.

@ryanhollister I believe the plugins will already be loaded before those things are determined. Parsing the page URL might be a workaround for categories if your permalink settings include the category name.

how about to unload plugins for product page with WooCommerce?
