## Beskriuwing

With Mu Manager you can manage the mu-plugins like the standard plugins.
 You can
disable, enable, and delete mu-plugins as you do with normal plugins.

The mu-plugins are the plugins that load before any standard plugin. In a normal
WordPress installation they are located in the folder wp-content/mu-plugins.

Usually, WordPress doesn’t allow you to deactivate the mu-plugins. With Mu Manager
you can enable, disable, and delete mu-plugins without the need for FTP.

It’s useful if you need to temporarily deactivate a mu-plugin, or to get rid of 
some mu-plugins installed by some hosting providers that you don’t need.
 Some hosting
providers, such as HostGator or Bluehost, might automatically install for instance
a must-use plugin that enables the Endurance Page Cache, which you totally don’t
need if you use a caching plugin. With Mu Plugin Manager you can easily get rid 
of Endurance Page Cache, or whatever mu-plugin that you don’t need.

### How to deactivate a mu-plugin

 * Go to the page of Plugins
 * Click on Must-Use
 * Click on Deactivate on the row of the mu-plugin that you want to deactivate

### How to enable a previously disabled mu-plugin

 * Go to the page of Plugins
 * Click on Must-Use
 * Click on Activate on the row of the mu-plugin that you want to activate

### How to delete a previously disabled mu-plugin

 * Go to the page of Plugins
 * Click on Must-Use
 * Click on Delete on the row of the mu-plugin that you want to delete

Migrated a site, but didn’t have shell access to remove a must-use plugin that wasn’t
relevant any more. This was able to deactivate it. 🙂
