 * I had reached out in the past with a very similar issue that you promptly resolved(
   thank you again) – it was in regards to plugins not being disabled when the language
   is changed on our website.
 * Now, I am reaching out with a very similar issue. When using UTM Parameters, 
   plugins are NOT being disabled.
 * I can tell this because the Language Chooser in the bottom left breaks styling
   when the “Ultimate Plugin” is enabled
 * Notice when you visit [https://ellasbubbles.com/](https://ellasbubbles.com/),
   the styling looks normal, like this: [https://i.imgur.com/559br9j.png](https://i.imgur.com/559br9j.png)
 * However, when you visit [https://ellasbubbles.com/?utm_source=freesoul](https://ellasbubbles.com/?utm_source=freesoul),
   the styling is broken, like this: [https://i.imgur.com/FTnL2sa.png](https://i.imgur.com/FTnL2sa.png)
 * Demonstrating, that FDP is not working when a UTM parameter is attached to the
   URL
 * Thoughts, Questions? Thank you!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Futm-parameter-disabled-deactivated-plugins%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@tanner96](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanner96/)
 * FDP doesn’t run if you have a query argument in the URL.
 * This is to prevent serious issues that may occur with some plugins.
    There are
   some plugins that for ajax requests instead of using the best practices call 
   the homepage adding some parameters to the URL. If you have one of those plugins
   and you disable some plugins on the homepage, you will have some plugins that
   are disabled during an action even if they should be active.
 * This is only for the homepage.
 * If you need to disable specific plugins when you have the parameter utm_source
   in the URL, you can use the settings in Freesoul Deactivate Plugins => Custom
   URLs => Frontend URLs.
    Use the match *utm_source=* to disable specific plugins
   every time you have that parameter, no matter the value. If you want to disable
   specific plugins only for specific values of the parameter, you can use a match
   that looks like *utm_source=my-specific-value* If you have more rules, remember
   that the priority is given by the row position. Drag to the top the match that
   you want with higher priority.
 * Let me know if it works.

 * Thank you for the response,
 * Although this is a piece of the workaround, we would like the ability to add 
   URL’s that will automatically assume the same settings as the other pages.
 * So, instead of disabling a list of plugins for EVERY url containing “query” (
   which could get even messier)
 * We simply could set or even check “include utm_source” with all previous settings
   per page

 * YOu are welcome.
    This problem should occur only on the homepage. On all other
   pages also if you add a parameter like ?utm_source=somehing it works as you say.
 * If you use the match [https://ellasbubbles.com/?utm_source*](https://ellasbubbles.com/?utm_source*),
   or [https://ellasbubbles.com/?utm_*](https://ellasbubbles.com/?utm_*) it will
   work only for the homepage, and on all the other pages it should work as usual.
   If it’s not so let me know.
 * So, you should practically copy the settings of the homepage to the custom URLs
   settings using a match as mentioned above.

 * This worked perfectly, thank you! Although I was unable to Copy/Paste in this
   section – I was able to replicate the same settings as the home page and all 
   is working as intended
 * I appreciate it

 * You are welcome [@tanner96](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanner96/)
 * Have you tried to copy the row settings by clicking on the 13th icon that you
   see here?: [https://freesoul-deactivate-plugins.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/fdp-action-buttons.png](https://freesoul-deactivate-plugins.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/fdp-action-buttons.png)
   
   Then you can paste the copied settings by clicking on the next icon.
 * You can also use shortcut C to copy the row settings and then V to paste it in
   the destination row. Here you have the list of shortcuts: [https://freesoul-deactivate-plugins.com/shortcuts/](https://freesoul-deactivate-plugins.com/shortcuts/)
 * Let me know if in your case it doesn’t work. Theoretically, it should always 
   work.

 * Ok, I see it. Copy/paste and shortcuts don’t work in the Custom URLs settings
   page. They work on all other pages but not where you needed it 🙂 I realize it
   now. Probably with the next version it will work also there. But you have already
   done it.
    In any case, I’m happy that you reached your final goal.
