# Failed to initialize plugin: wpuf_button

 * I am seeing this long and vertical error “Failed to initialize plugin: wpuf_button”
   like on this topic [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wpuf_button-error-2/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wpuf_button-error-2/)
 * It only shows on the **Simple Custom CSS and JS** plugin page, so I’m guessing
   there’s a conflict with this plugin. As it has over 600k active users, it’s probably
   worth taking a look at.
 * Can you please test and see if you experience the same?

 * Hi [@one3rdnerd](https://wordpress.org/support/users/one3rdnerd/),
 * Thank you so much for reaching out and for sharing the detailed information —
   it really helps!
 * We appreciate you pointing out the “**Failed to initialize plugin: wpuf_button**”
   error you’re seeing, especially that it appears specifically on the **Simple 
   Custom CSS and JS** plugin page.
 * I’ve tested the scenario on a clean installation using the latest versions of
   both **WP User Frontend** and **Simple Custom CSS and JS**, and I was able to
   replicate the issue you’re describing. It seems there is indeed a conflict when
   both plugins are active, particularly with how TinyMCE buttons or custom scripts
   are loaded in the admin area.
 * I’ve logged this with our development team so they can further investigate and
   work on a fix or compatibility update. In the meantime, here are a couple of 
   workarounds you might consider:
    - **If you’re not using the WPUF editor buttons on that specific admin page**,
      you can safely ignore the error as it doesn’t affect overall functionality.
    - **Temporarily disabling one plugin** when configuring the other is another
      possible workaround until a fix is released.
 * We’ll keep you posted once we have an update. Thanks again for flagging this —
   we truly appreciate your patience and proactive feedback!

 * Thank you, I’ll ignore it now while I wait for an update. I saw it on a site 
   that’s still in development and not live yet, so hopefully it’s fixed before 
   we need to launch.
