Disable some, but not all, plugins in PHP?

[mathforum]

I use Tapatalk on my site and on my old Android phone I had almost no issues. This week I switched to an iPhone and discovered that there was a major issue on these phones that makes posting anything from Tapatalk result in an error message. Found out that this is usually due to a 3rd party add-on so I added a disable hooks line in the Tapatalk php file and the error is gone.

The only downside is that now I can't use vBSEO likes on my phone, as all modifications are disabled. So my question is can we disable plugins with PHP? I know it can be done with SQL, according to this thread, but I'm hoping there is a fix I can add to the main Tapatalk PHP file so the code only runs when Tapatalk is in use and a lot of other conditionals can be avoided.

Any ideas?
