Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Extension Profiles

No. Plugins remain active in the database. Extension Profiles filters which plugins are loaded per user session using a cookie-based mechanism, similar to how WordPress Health Check's troubleshooting mode works.

No. Profiles are per-session and only affect the user who activated them. Other users and site visitors will continue to see all normally active plugins.

The MU-plugin filter file is automatically removed, all active sessions are cleared, and your site returns to its normal configuration immediately.

Extension Profiles includes an emergency disable mechanism. If a profile plugin causes errors: Admin Bar Method - If you can still access the admin bar, click "Extension Profiles" > "Emergency: Force Disable" (shown in red) to immediately disable the active profile. URL Parameter Method - Add ?ep_disable=1 to any admin URL (e.g., yoursite.com/wp-admin/?ep_disable=1) to bypass profile filtering and disable your active profile. This works even if the admin bar doesn't load. Both methods immediately clear your session and return you to the normal plugin configuration without requiring file system access.

Yes. Extension Profiles hooks both pre_option_active_plugins and pre_option_active_sitewide_plugins to support network-activated plugins.

Extension Profiles is aware of the WordPress 6.5+ "Requires Plugins" header. When you select a plugin that depends on another, the dependency is automatically included in the profile. You will also receive a warning if you try to deselect a required dependency.
