Hi @alexdev7
thank you for using FDP.
Usually, all the plugins that you need in the backend are not used in the frontend and you can deactivate them.
You need to pay attention to those backend plugins that need to check the pages on frontend.
If for example the plugin to generate the XML files would need to load the frontend pages and do something in the frontend during the scan you should keep it active on frontend. But this almost never happens. Usually, backend plugins have all the information they need from the database. To generate the XML file of the products they will surely get the information from the database and they don’t need to do anything on the frontend, because it would be more complicated for them and slower.
In any case, I suggest you disable all the backend plugins on frontend, but then test your website to be sure all work as expected.
If you want for the homepage you also have the auto-suggestion. Go to Freesoul Deactivate Plugins => Plugin Manager => Singles => Homepage and click on the button to automatically suggest the needed plugins.
Have a great day!

Thank you very much for the respond. Indeed I test it and it seems that is working fine!
I just have another question, hope that you can help me!
I tried the custom URL FRONTEND but I can’t figure out how to make it work.
for example I want to disable plugins on the Order pay pages after checkout.
https://domain.com/checkout/order-pay/140179/?key=wc_order_KvwDbJA0gl3BF
The numbers and code after /checkout/order-pay/…. (is random genereated)
So I want to diactivate plugins on the frontend page who use /order-pay/ on the link. is that possible?
Tried few things but didn’t work. Is there any suggestion?
Thank you!
Hi @alexdev7
You are welcome! When a part of the URL is always different you can replace it with a star *
E.g.
https://domain.com/checkout/order-pay/*/?key=wc_order_*
Even better:
*/order-pay/*/?key=wc_order_*
So, if in the future you migrate to a different domain, or you change the name of the checkout, you don’t need to change the Custom URLs settings.
Just be sure you don’t match also URLs that should not be matched when you use the star.
Have a great day!
Jose
