How to disable plugins

Thanks for that, I will give it a try.

So is there really no way to disable a plugin for an individual page?

Also, I’m a little unsure which files I should or should not be changing? For example I searched on here about adding Google Analytics, and the answer seems to be modifying a partial within the theme. Isn’t this going to get lost when the theme gets updated?

Similar to modifying the random plugin, won’t those changes be lost if it ever gets updated?

Just trying to establish some best working practices to make my life easier in the future.
