Plugin Groups / Settings hierarchy

    I′ve read some topics here, but the use of plugin groups isn′t clear for me, sorry.

    I use filters for every page, cause I find they are more handy than a setup page for page.

    I deactivated the most plugins globally, afterward I create filters for every page/section to activate certain plugins where they needed. That′s fine. By the way: your plugin creates really awesome page-loading results!

    Here my question 1 : If I check all plugins for a page to on but a group below to off, all plugins from this group are disabled. -> But if I set all plugins in filter to off and a specific group below to on, this plugins from group aren′t work. Is it just possible to use groups for disabling plugins?

    2 : What′s the hierarchy from your settings, please?

    From highest to lowest ?

    1. Filter:groups -> just for turn off
    2. Filter:filter
    3. Selective:groups -> just for turn off
    4. Selective:filter
    5. Globally

    3 : I know how to setup a filter group. But where exactly can I work with it, please? If I go to -> Plugin Filters, all of them are shown, but without it′s group-name. Can′t see group-names anywhere else..

    4 : Is it possible to setup for example wp-admin.php with some settings and add this filter with “also affect children”, but add a new filter for wp-admin.php/any-slug and set new settings that overrides the first ones?

    On this way it would be possible to create a setup for complete admin area, but change them selective for some sections..

    Hope this was my last question : ) Thank you for your very nice plugin and your patience..

    5 : Sorry, is it possible to set more than one permalinks to an single filter?

    1. You can’t override the settings within a single plugin filter. You can only override the global settings.
    2. Filter groups are only for organizing your filters. Not for disabling or enabling. Plugin groups can be used to disable/enable plugins by group. The current page/post/filter have the highest priority if any settings exist for it. If no settings are specifically set then the parent is looked at. Finally the global plugins are applied.
    3. Seems the ability to filter by plugin group is missing. I’ve apparently never implemented that. Or it got lost somewhere. There should be a dropdown in the list of plugin filters to view plugin filters in a given group.
    4. I think you mean wp-admin. There is no wp-admin.php unless you have a custom admin theme that supplies that. You can create a filter for wp-admin and override it with a different filter for a specific file like wp-admin/post.php
    5. It is not possible to add more than one permalink per filter.
