Global settings affect access to some settings pages?

    I’m just getting started with Plugin Organizer, but I don’t think this is part of the intended behaviour…

    I have installed the Syntax Highlighter Evolved plugin, which I intend to use only on one page of my site, so I used the Organizer’s global settings to deactivate Highlighter site wide and only activated it manually on the relevant page. I also have the Organizer’s Disable Plugins in Admin option enabled.

    It seems that I can’t access the Syntax Highlighter Evolved settings if it is globally deactivated — even though I’m the only user on the site (hence the only admin), an error is returned saying I don’t have the proper permission level to access the Syntax Highlighter settings page.

    I had to reactivate the Organizer’s global settings to be able to access the Highlighter’s settings. Is there any way to deactivate it from the Organizer global settings and yet still have access to the Highlighter settings admin? I didn’t want to disable the admin settings but perhaps I don’t fully understand the use of that setting.

    Some advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

    Thanks very much ?? It’s Lightbox Plus Colorbox.

    I installed the colorbox plugin and created 2 pages with a gallery on them. Next I went to global plugins and disabled the colorbox plugin. Then I went to one of the pages and turned on the colorbox plugin. It works on the page where I turned it on and not on the one where I didn’t turn it on. I can see that the javascript is in the footer of the page where I turned it on but not on the page where I left it off. So everything is working correctly.

    Then it’s something with my settings — I’ve been playing around with it and have gotten the lightbox to work for external webpages but not for image galleries. I’ll keep trying since at least I’m getting somewhere ?? Thanks for checking on this for me!

    If you’ve got any advice about what to do about those large files, that would be great. After that I promise to leave you alone for a while! ?? Here’s the question again, just in case:

    I have a plugin that’s loading some really heavy js files in the doc head on every page throughout the site. I don’t want to disable the plugin, but I’d like to disable those specific files, except on the 4 pages where I need them. How would I go about doing that?

    Thanks a million, Jeff!

    (PS: Your advice on custom post type filters worked for me, so thanks for that, too!)

    I figured out how to do this by adding a function instead. Thanks again for all your help! I guess I’d marked this as resolved before, but now it really is ??

    I was going to suggest that. If you want the plugin to still load but only want to remove some of it’s scripts that are loaded you can use wp_dequeue_script to remove them if they are added with wp_enqueue_script. Or else remove the hook that adds them to the header. Glad you figured it out.
