How to Prevent Plugin Script Conflicts on the WP ULike Statistics Page

Some WordPress plugins, like Google Analytics for WordPress (MonsterInsights), load their JavaScript files on all admin pages by default, including the WP ULike Statistics page.

This can cause conflicts such as:

• Errors like B.put is not a function or Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'node').
• Broken UI components in the WP ULike Statistics panel.
• Unexpected behavior due to overlapping libraries or global variables.

These conflicts occur because plugins often bundle scripts into vendor files or global objects that collide with WP ULike’s React admin panel scripts.

The Solution

We provide a method to remove specific plugin scripts from the WP ULike admin page while leaving other parts of your WordPress site untouched.

The code snippet below blocks scripts containing partial names (like google-analytics) only on WP ULike pages:

Key Points:

• Scope-limited: Only affects WP ULike admin pages (wp-ulike-statistics or any wp-ulike page).
• Safe: Dequeues/deregisters conflicting scripts without affecting the rest of the admin or frontend.
• Flexible: You can add more script name patterns to $blocked_names as needed.

Benefits

• Eliminates JavaScript errors caused by plugin conflicts.
• Ensures WP ULike admin panels load smoothly.
• Provides a stable, maintainable way to prevent future conflicts with new plugins.

This solution is particularly useful for sites with multiple analytics or performance plugins where script collisions are common.
