Reply To: Anyone else seeing weird plugin conflicts lately?

From what I see, Yeah, that’s been my experience too. The “harmless” ones are usually the worst offenders because nobody’s actually testing them against a normal plugin stack. I’ve had caching plugins break editor behavior, admin AJAX stuff, even random front-end script conflicts after a minor update. Half the time it’s not the cache plugin itself, it’s some add-on or optimization feature inside it that starts messing with timing or script order. What I’ve started doing is basically: – update on a staging copy first if I can – keep an eye on the last 2-3 plugins updated, not just the one that “looks guilty” – disable minify/combine/defer stuff before blaming the whole plugin And yeah, “it’s an edge case” is always the line. Funny how the edge case keeps happening on real sites with real traffic.
