            \n

            Step 1: Set Page Type to “Post, Pages & Custom Post Type”<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

              • Make sure to check the boxes for Posts<\/code>, Pages<\/code>, or other post types as needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Click Save<\/strong> to apply this setting.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
                \n

                Step 2: Select Custom Post Types from the Settings Tab<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                \"Step\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                1. Now, navigate to the Settings<\/strong> tab at the top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

                  By completing both steps above, WP Plugin Manager will disable the selected plugin(s) for the specified post types effectively.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

                  \n

                  Verify Plugin is Disabled<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                  After applying the settings, ensure the plugin\u2019s CSS\/JS assets are no longer loading on the disabled pages or posts. This confirms the plugin is successfully deactivated for those targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
