Biggest opportunity: Swap “debug log” and “troubleshooting” for “conflicts” and “finder”. “debug log” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “conflicts” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “troubleshooting” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “finder” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →1.0%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 10.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,778 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 4 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

What to do about it
- Swap “debug log” and “troubleshooting” for “conflicts” and “finder”. “debug log” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “conflicts” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “troubleshooting” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “finder” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “plugin conflict”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I have used WP Fix It for my clients for a number of years. Dare I say since the beginning. Their services and offerings just continue to improve and offer more and more. This plugin is a game changer. It alleviates the tedious work of deactivating and reactivating. Or installing and activating a default theme. This thing has it all. And its done almost in a virtual situation where the only person seeing what your doing is you. Visitors and clients are not effected while you are troubleshooting. As far as they know the site looks okay and all is well. Which when you have people who overreact or get mad quickly that’s important! Well done WPFixIt!

Currently (2025-09-20): I seem to find periodic issues with this plugin from time to time. The developers of this plugin typically resolve the issues relatively quickly. I just wish their testing, before releasing new versions was a bit more thorough as to prevent unnecessary problems when using their Conflict Finder plugin. The plugin also doesn’t seem to fully disable plugins (temporarily) in the same manner as if and when I manually deactivate the plugins. I’m guessing it just words differntly. It works well in many cases, but it just doesn’t appear to be the perfect way to test “temporarily deactivating plugins” to find conflict issues. It’s good, but I just find it’s not as good as when I manually deactivate the plugins in the traditional manner. So I use this plugin for quick debugging, but I often end up needing to manually deactivate my plugins if I want to really be sure where issues are having a conflict. Currently (2024-07-17): I put my rating back to where it was previously. I just hope the developers will review the plugin and figure out so they can correct the problem asap. CURRENTLY (2024-07-16): The plugin has serious issues. I just left a support request asking the developer to review and fix the plugin. Until then, I would recommend NOT TO USE THIS PLUGIN. It can cause serious issues. If and once the plugin issues are fully resolved, I’ll gladly update this review. But I am changing it from 5 stars to 1 star for the current time. BACK ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO (in 2022) I LEFT THIS REVIEW: Great, great plugin for testing conflicts and issues. This is really a great, great plugin for testing conflicts and issues. This is a long time coming. 🙂 It makes temporarily disabling all of the plugins, then being able to activate only certain plugins for a quick test, and then activating all of the plugins again with one click, a breeze. And, as a huge benefit, when I deactivated the plugins, all of the settings were intact when I reactivated them. Very often, there are always some plugins that when I deactivate and then reactivate, will require me to jump through a bunch of hoops and re-enter my license keys, etc. I was thrilled when I tested this plugin and deactivated all of the plugins (except for the Conflict Finder plugin), and then when I reactivated the plugins they were all restored without any issues. I love this plugin. I hope it stays around. On another side note, I use the Divi Theme. And while Divi has an option to temporarily disable all of the plugins (and to put Divi in Safe Mode), this option doesn’t give me the ability to enable selected plugins while in Safe Mode. But the Conflict Finder plugin does! I can deactivate all of the plugins in one shot and then I can also reactivate only certain ones if and as needed. – Gary Gordon This topic was modified 2 years ago by Gary Gordon.
