A plugin that cannot be disabled globally

I think I might be going crazy, so please help checking this out for me: It seems I have found not one, but TWO PLUGINS with strange needs regarding Plugin Organizer settings.

(1) FLOW-FLOW
use: pulling in info from several different social networks and displaying them in a single flow diagram;
example page: https://www.blueberrydesign.com.br/blog/all-portfolio-list/redes-sociais-mix/
does not work: if disabled globally and/or disabled in the admin filter and enabled only in the page specific settings;
works: only if enabled globally and in the admin filter, and of course, in the page specific settings;
conclusion: THIS PLUGIN NEEDS to be enabled in GLOBAL SETTINGS, ADMIN FILTER + PAGE SETTINGS

(2) CONTENT TIMELINE
use: displaying a horizontal timeline with custom and post information;
example page: https://www.blueberrydesign.com.br/blog/all-portfolio-list/linha-do-tempo/
does not work: if disabled in the admin filter and enabled only in the page specific settings;
works: if disabled globally but enabled in both the admin filter and the page specific settings;
conclusion: THIS PLUGIN NEEDS to be enabled in ADMIN FILTER + PAGE SETTINGS

Is this possible? Or am I doing something wrong?

This happens because the plugin is doing an ajax hit to get content. If you have it disabled globally it will not be enabled on the page it is doing the ajax hit on. Add a filter with the permalink https://www.blueberrydesign.com.br/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php. This is where a lot of plugins call for the ajax content. Yours might actually be https://www.blueberrydesign.com.br/blog/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php. If that doesn’t work then it is calling to some other url to get the ajax content.

Perfect! I create a single new filter called “Ajax” where I enable the two plugins “Flow-Flow” and “Content Timeline”. I was then able to disable both of the plugins in the Global settings and in the Admin Area filter.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I have 50 plugins in my main site in the multisite network and I am going through a very interesting challenge of getting them all to work properly only where they have to be loaded. On top of that, I am also trying to get all this running in top speed (performance optimization) well with caching (W3 Total Cache), CloudFlare and MaxCDN. When I get all this working, if I do, I am certainly going to post something here mentioning what can be done with your plugin. Up to now … everything is evolving very well. Each day is a challenge, but each day there is something new I learn to get this huge puzzle working.

best regards,
