Conflict Guard

Description

Is a WordPress plugin breaking your website?
Conflict Guard helps you find the culprit without taking your site offline.
Stop disabling plugins one-by-one and guessing which update caused the problem.
Conflict Guard is a WordPress troubleshooting and plugin conflict detection tool that helps you identify problems involving plugins, PHP errors, JavaScript errors, AJAX failures, REST API issues, WooCommerce checkout problems, and more.
Use Safe Test Mode to test plugin combinations from your administrator session while visitors continue seeing your normal live website.
🔍 Find the Plugin Causing the Problem
Conflict Guard scans your active plugins and analyzes your site’s diagnostic information to help identify potential conflicts and stability problems.
It can monitor:
PHP errors and fatal errors
JavaScript errors
AJAX failures
REST API problems
Plugin-related issues
WooCommerce compatibility problems
Plugin update and activation events
Each plugin can receive a stability score based on detected error activity.

🧪 Test Plugin Conflicts Safely
Safe Test Mode creates a session-based testing environment for your administrator account.
You can temporarily disable plugins while testing without changing what normal visitors see.
This means you can troubleshoot a live website without deliberately taking the site offline for everyone.
Visitors: Continue seeing the normal website.
Administrator: Can test plugins in the Safe Test Mode session.

🎯 Isolate the Problem Plugin
Not sure which plugin is responsible?
Conflict Guard includes a smart conflict isolation system that helps narrow down the potential culprit instead of requiring you to manually deactivate every plugin individually.
The goal is simple:
Scan → Test → Isolate → Identify → Fix

⏪ Roll Back Problematic Plugin Updates
A plugin update can sometimes introduce compatibility problems.
Conflict Guard provides rollback functionality for WordPress.org-hosted plugins, allowing you to select an available previous version and restore it.
Automatic restore points are also created before plugin updates where supported by Conflict Guard.
For premium or third-party plugins, automatic WordPress.org version downloads are not available, but Conflict Guard can create restore points before updates.

🚨 Emergency Recovery Mode
If a WordPress problem prevents you from accessing the normal WordPress admin area, Conflict Guard provides an Emergency Recovery interface.
Keep your personal recovery URL available so you can access the recovery tools when the normal dashboard is unavailable.
Recovery and file-changing actions require appropriate administrator permissions.

📊 Real-Time Error Monitoring
Conflict Guard provides diagnostic information about problems occurring on your website.
Monitor information such as:
PHP errors
Fatal errors
JavaScript conflicts
AJAX failures
REST API issues
Memory usage
Plugin-related error activity
Use the information to determine what changed and where to investigate.

🛒 WooCommerce Troubleshooting
Running WooCommerce?
Conflict Guard includes dedicated WooCommerce diagnostics for common store problems.
Use it to investigate:
Checkout problems
Payment gateway conflicts
WooCommerce plugin compatibility
Plugin-related checkout failures
When your store’s checkout suddenly stops working, finding the responsible plugin quickly can save hours of troubleshooting.

📅 Conflict Timeline
Conflict Guard records important plugin events so you can understand what happened before a problem appeared.
The timeline can help you investigate:
Plugin activations
Plugin deactivations
Plugin updates
Rollbacks
Detected errors
Crashes
Conflict events
This makes it easier to answer the question:
“What changed before my website broke?”

📈 Plugin Health & Stability
Conflict Guard provides plugin health information to help you identify plugins that may deserve closer investigation.
Depending on the available diagnostic information, plugins can receive scores related to:
Stability
Security
Update activity
Performance impact
These scores are intended as troubleshooting indicators, not absolute security or performance guarantees.

Session-based Safe Test Mode
