Most of the time, plugins play nicely with the core of WordPress and with other plugins. Sometimes, though, a plugin’s code will get in the way of another plugin, causing compatibility issues. If your site starts doing strange things, this may be the problem. Try deactivating all your plugins and re-activating them in various combinations until you isolate which one(s) caused the issue.

If something goes wrong with a plugin and you cannot use WordPress, delete or rename that file in the /var/www/html/blog/wp-content/plugins directory and it will be automatically deactivated.

Auto-updates can be enabled or disabled for each individual plugin. Plugins with auto-updates enabled will display the estimated date of the next auto-update. Auto-updates depends on the WP-Cron task scheduling system.

Auto-updates are only available for plugins recognized by WordPress.org, or that include a compatible update system.

Please note: Third-party themes and plugins, or custom code, may override WordPress scheduling.

Plugin Dependencies aims to make the process of installing and activating add-ons (dependents) and the plugins they rely on (dependencies) consistent and easy.

If a required plugin is deleted, a notice will be displayed on the Plugin administration screen informing the user that there is some missing dependencies to install and/or activate. Additionally, each plugin whose dependencies are not met will have an error notice on their plugin row.

If a dependent plugin is missing some dependencies, its activation button will be disabled until the required dependencies are activated.
