 * Hi,
    there is a compatibility problem with THRIVE VISUAL EDITOR plugin ([https://thrivethemes.com/](https://thrivethemes.com/)).
   When ShiftNav is activated, the VISUAL EDITOR menus do not respond anymore. However,
   disabling SHIFT NAV fixes the issue.
 * Is there any way to tell Shift Nav to not be active when using an editor in the
   Admin section of WordPress?
 * Thanks,

 * Hi Martin,
 * The last time I saw that plugin, it was stripping out CSS from other plugins 
   and breaking them. When I reported the issue to them, they said they did it on
   purpose because it was too difficult to support when other plugins could add 
   CSS to the page (???).
 * My guess is that there’s something like that going on here. ShiftNav doesn’t 
   load in the admin section of the site. If you want to disable it on a front end
   page, you can use this strategy: [Disable ShiftNav on a specific page](http://sevenspark.com/docs/shiftnav/faqs/disable-page)

 * Thank you. I will keep this in mind.
    Meanwhile, I have noticed that my Theme
   is also creating instabilities. I might explore first the option of installing
   a new theme. If need be, I’ll submit a pro ticket to prevent ShiftNav from loading
   on specific pages like you suggested.
 * Great plugin BTW, and great price. Thank you. Highly recommended.
