First release.
Stop selected plugins from loading on chosen front-end URLs, so their code never runs where it isn't needed.
- Pick a URL path and the plugins to skip on it (match by contains, starts with, or exact)
- A must-use loader, installed automatically on activation, makes the decision before WordPress loads plugins
- Admin, login, REST, cron and non-GET requests are never affected
- Master off switch, and every rule is reversible; nothing is ever deleted
Tested end to end: a plugin dropped from a matching front-end URL while others kept loading, admin untouched, and both rule removal and deactivation cleaned up. Plugin Check: no errors, no warnings.
The attached loadgate.zip is the installable plugin.
