I don't want to install a required plugin

  • Hey everyone,

    I am using a theme that I purchased through Themeforest. It has Jogishop as a required plugin. I don’t need it and don’t want it installed.

    https://www.allinbicycleclub.com

    My issue is if I install it, it wants me to activate it. If I activate it, it crashes my site.

    I have deleted it via FTP but now when I go to settings of other plugins it’s asking me to install this required plugin and wont let me at the settings for these other plugins.

    Anyone seen this? Little help? Driving me CRAZY!

    Thanks a bunch!

    Zac

  • Unfortunately, this forum does not support Commercial Themes from third parties such as Themeforest…you paid for support with them when you paid for their theme…consult with them…

    If the folks who sold you the theme will not tell you how to get things like you want them, you might try putting a dummy folder and file in your plugins folder to trick the theme into “seeing” the plugin there and being quiet.

    I disagree with the 2 above posters. I think you should be able to ask such a question, as it’s clear that the plugin and the site aren’t working together. That’s a wordpress problem, and I don’t give a care where you got it. (sorry guys)

    With that said, can you please explain what you mean by ‘crash’? Details are important. Do you get an error, does CPU go to 100%, etc.

    Best of luck!

    if there is a problem that a commercial theme is not working with a plugin which it requires, then this is not a (general) WordPress problem – it is a problem which the theme’s developer and/or plugin’s developer have to solve.

    and yes – of course, anybody is allowed to ask these kind of questions here in the forum, and if somebody wants to help, that is fine.

    Cool beans!

    Please pass that WordPress info along and open this WordPress thread back up so we WordPress users can talk about and try to WordPress-help help each other with a specific WordPress-related challenge we have while using WordPress…

    open this WordPress thread back up

    won’t happen because that topic was closed as ‘off-topic’ as it was dealing purely with a html problem.

    that topic was closed as ‘off-topic’ as it was dealing purely with a html problem.

    Please explain, and I am not being a wiseguy here. That thread is about a custom ie.css being developed by a WordPress user running a WordPress theme in WordPress — something many of us are trying to do well — with no mention of HTML anywhere within…and yet it was closed with “Please only post here if it’s regarding WordPress” while making no mention of HTML or whatever personal logic or perception might have been behind that seeming “request” that was actually a bully move. I have much respect for you and all the mods here, but those who decry IE8 or whatever really do need to just leave the rest of us alone…please.

    Sorry for all the confusion. I just do’t know where to turn.

    Basically I just wanted to know if there was a way to delete or turn off required plugins. Its keeps promoting me to install Jigoshop every time I go into different plugin settings.

    I’m not sure exactly what the error is when I install it. Right now it’s uninstalled and I don’t really want to install it and then go through the work to uninstall it again.

    Thanks,

    @zdurst
    please contact the theme’s developers;

    the ‘requiredness of the plugin’ is probably programmed into the theme, to which nobody here has access because it is a commercial theme which is not freely downloadable.
    there is nothing within the default WordPress which would make a plugin required.

    @leejosepho
    your discussion is totally off-topic here in this thread.
    generally, anything you would have problems with, even in a static html site, i.e. anything that does not involve the WordPress template tags and functions per-se, is off-topic for this forum.
    conditional IE css stylesheets are part of this.
