I should hope that acids and bases would affect them otherwise they would not be very good indicators! (By the way, that's what indicators are for, salts and organic compounds do not affect them.)

It depends on the indicator. Some indicators are made for each of those things, but the most common indicators (pH strips) are for acids and bases.
