Known issues with other plugins

If you find that Startify doesn't work very well with another plugin, create an issue for it. We'll work out a solution and add it here. Everyone is free to edit this site.

context.vim

context.vim tinkers with the active buffers to show contextual information in the nested program code you are editing, which can mess up the saved Session file. You can call the disable feature of the plugin automatically at the moment the session file is to be saved by setting:

let g:startify_session_before_save = [
      \ "ContextDisable"
      \ ]

goyo

If you followed :h startify-faq-17 to create a new Startify buffer for each new tab, you might run into issues when creating a new tab with goyo enabled. Add this condition instead:

autocmd BufEnter *
       \ if !exists('t:startify_new_tab') && empty(expand('%')) && !exists('t:goyo_master') | 
       \   let t:startify_new_tab = 1 |
       \   Startify |
       \ endif
