WP Plugins Incompatible with CiviCRM
June 01, 2013, 03:54:38 pm
I think it would be useful to document which plugins are incompatible with CiviCRM.  I've encountered a couple.

WP Super Cache.  If I recall correctly this causes problems with contribution pages.  CiviCRM seemed to work otherwise.

Ultimate TinyMCE.  If I recall correctly CiviCRM works but the editor didn't.  You couldn't edit posts or pages.

If anybody else knows of any others please post them.  Also if you gotten the above to work please post your experience.

You can add UberMenu Sticky to the list - breaks all front-end forms

WordPress SEO by Yoast - also breaks front-end forms. Fix is to turn off the FB Open Graph stuff.

No Category Parents plugin broke the front-end pages for me.

I also use the Yoast SEO plugin and had to disable the "Add Open Graph meta data" option under the Social Media FaceBook tab.  This is documented here:

http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,29265.0.html

Other than that the plugin works fine with CiviCRM.

The Yoast bug also affects JetPack. The solution is to stick
Code: [Select]
add_filter( 'jetpack_enable_opengraph', '__return_false', 99 );in your theme's functions.php.

The latest Yoast Plugin appears to have fixed the problem with the "Add Open Graph meta data" option.  It not longer breaks our online donation page when it is enabled.

WP Super Cache (tentatively). Plugin works fine other than actually generating the cache files. It breaks because it doesn't kick in if it detects anything in $_GET - and Civi seems to add a civicrm_install_type variable into this.

Got around it by hacking the plugin to allow the Civi parameter - will post the code if anyone's interested.

Other than that, seems to work fine - though we also exclude anything with a Civi querystring.

(tentative as we have a lot of plugins so something else could be messing about with this)

There is now a page in the documentation wiki for storing this sort of information.

http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Known+conflicts+with+WordPress+plugins

It would be great if you could transfer this information to the wiki.

I know nothing about WordPress and wouldn't want to transfer out-of- date information across.

As this is a brand new page the table columns are just suggestions and may need to be changed
