Can it deactivate?

Hello,

I am not the plugin developer, just a user, and I’m here to create my own question in a different ticket. However, I’ll answer your query.

It is possible to deactivate the index via this URL: /wp-admin/tools.php?page=imfs_settings

Revert keys: Revert to WordPress’s default keys.

I also imagine it’s possible to do it manually (with raw SQL), but I wouldn’t recommend trying that, so forget I even mentioned it.

For myself, given the importance and volume of my data and to ensure peace of mind, I would use wp-cli with this command:
wp index-mysql disable --all

After all this, you could have seen these options by checking the plugin settings or reading its main page.

Good luck! ??

I want leave it, but only the plugin want if can be switch off.

No, this should not be disabled if the index is present. I can’t remember where the author mentioned why, but it seems to be to ensure that the changes persist without WordPress interfering. If you want to disable it, please disable the indexes.

Thanks for your question. I guess you want to know whether you can add the high-performance indexes and then deactivate the plugin.

Can you do it? Yes. Will the high-performance indexes remain in place if you do? Yes.

The problem is this: if you deactivate thiss plugin and then do a WordPress core update, the update will attempt to restore WordPress’s default indexes automatically. It doesn’t do that quite right, though. If you leave the plugin activated, it intercepts the core-update index changes.

I’ve done my best to make the plugin have very low overhead, so there should not be a penalty for leaving it active.

Thank you!

This question and answer was helpful, thanks.
