In most cases, no — NGAZE is designed to work alongside standard WordPress plugins without causing conflicts. The NGAZE WordPress plugin is lightweight and focused on enabling NGAZE functionality rather than modifying site behavior.
This article explains why conflicts are unlikely, what types of plugins to watch for, and what to do if issues occur.
Short Answer
NGAZE does not conflict with most WordPress plugins, including page builders, SEO plugins, caching tools, and security plugins.
If an issue does occur, it is usually related to caching, security, or API-blocking settings, not a direct plugin conflict.
How the NGAZE WordPress Plugin Works #
The NGAZE plugin:
- Uses secure API-based communication
- Does not override WordPress core files
- Does not inject heavy scripts site-wide
- Does not alter themes, layouts, or content
Because of this, it operates independently of most plugins.
Plugins That Commonly Work Fine with NGAZE
NGAZE is compatible with:
Page Builders
- Gutenberg (Block Editor)
- Elementor
- Beaver Builder
- Divi
SEO Plugins
- Yoast SEO
- Rank Math
- All in One SEO
Performance & Caching
- WP Rocket
- W3 Total Cache
- LiteSpeed Cache
- Autoptimize
Security
- Wordfence
- iThemes Security
- Sucuri
Hosting Tools
- Managed hosting performance tools
- CDN integrations (Cloudflare, etc.)
These plugins are commonly used on NGAZE-powered sites.
Plugins That May Require Attention
Some plugins may require minor configuration:
🔐 Security Plugins
Security plugins may:
- Block API requests
- Restrict outbound connections
- Flag unknown endpoints
Fix:
Allow NGAZE API endpoints or whitelist outbound requests.
⚡ Aggressive Caching or Optimization Plugins
Caching or optimization plugins may:
- Delay data updates
- Cache API responses
- Minify or defer scripts too aggressively
Fix:
Clear cache after setup and exclude NGAZE endpoints if needed.
🔁 API or Firewall Plugins
Plugins that restrict API usage or external requests can interfere with data sync.
Fix:
Ensure outbound API requests are allowed.
What NGAZE Does NOT Do
To set expectations clearly, NGAZE:
- ❌ Does not disable other plugins
- ❌ Does not change plugin settings
- ❌ Does not inject conflicting scripts
- ❌ Does not modify database tables used by other plugins
Signs of a Potential Conflict
You may want to investigate if you see:
- NGAZE plugin connected but not syncing
- Website data not updating after 72 hours
- Errors appearing after enabling a new plugin
- Issues immediately following a plugin update
These are usually configuration-related, not hard conflicts.
How to Troubleshoot Plugin Conflicts #
Step 1: Clear Cache
Clear all site and CDN caches.
Step 2: Check Security Logs
Review security plugin logs for blocked requests.
Step 3: Review Recent Changes
Identify if the issue started after:
- Installing a new plugin
- Updating an existing plugin
- Changing hosting or firewall settings
Step 4: Contact Support
Provide:
- List of active plugins
- Hosting provider
- Error messages or screenshots (if any)
When to Contact Support #
Contact support if:
- NGAZE plugin stops syncing after adding a plugin
- You suspect an API or firewall block
- You need help whitelisting NGAZE endpoints
