Here is a simple plugin. It use CSS code and importing it. The problem is that in the HTML file there are several external CSS files.
My goal is to compress them in one CSS file. Here's the code from the plugin, to my mind, it imports the CSS file.
I already copied the plugins CSS code and transferred it to main CSS file. But how to delete the code plugin so that it will never import its CSS file?
function addStylesAndScripts()
{
wp_enqueue_style('zvr-font', 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans');
wp_enqueue_style('zvr-style', trailingslashit(plugin_dir_url(__FILE__)) . 'assets/css/zvr-styles.css', array() , "1.0.3");
wp_enqueue_script('zvr-script', trailingslashit(plugin_dir_url(__FILE__)) . 'assets/js/zvr-script.js', array(
'jquery'
) , "1.0.3");
$localize = array(
'ajax_url' => admin_url('admin-ajax.php') ,
);
wp_localize_script('zvr-script', 'zvr_data', $localize);
}
}
To stop integrating the CSS file please write the following code in your functions.php :
function dequeueStyles() {
wp_dequeue_style('zvr-font');
wp_dequeue_style( 'zvr-style' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'dequeueStyles', 100 );
Hope this will help
You can dequeue those scripts, but you need to execute it after the plugin does it. For example, add this to your theme's functions.php
function dequeue_unneeded_css() {
wp_dequeue_style( 'zvr-style' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'dequeue_unneeded_css', 99999 );

I use Elementor to build my website and there are a lot of functionalities that I'm not using but are none the less loaded on every page of my website. So I decided to dequeue the css files I'm not using in my child theme's functions.php and dequeue the css files which I'm only partially using, replacing them with a 'cleaned-up' version of the file.
This is how I wanted to start doing it:
function adg_dequeue_unnecessary_files() {
wp_dequeue_style( 'elementor-frontend' ); // remove Elementor's custom-frontend.min.css
wp_deregister_style( 'elementor-frontend' );
wp_register_style( 'new-elementor-frontend-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/custom-frontend.min.css' ); // Purified replacement for Elementor's custom-frontend.min.css
wp_enqueue_style( 'new-elementor-frontend-css' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'adg_dequeue_unnecessary_files' );
But while the second part of my function adds my new custom css file nicely, the first part removes almost 10 other Elementor's css files along with the one I actually wanted to dequeue.
This is the list of files being dequeued:
custom-frontend.min.css
post-1501.css (this is the css file of the page I was looking at while making these changes)
frontend-legacy.min.css
post-1396.css (some global Elementor's css)
post-3556.css (this one and the 5 below are templates from a plugin I'm using across my website)
post-4473.css
post-5653.css
post-3489.css
post-3464.css
post-3458.css
I'm guessing it has something to do with the handler 'elementor-frontend' not being correct. The custom-frontend.min.css file had the 'elementor-frontend-css' ID in the link tag of the HTML code, so I was guessing the handler from there.
Does anyone know how I can dequeue only the custom-frontend.min.css file?
After that I wanted to dequeue these files as well:
animations.min.css
elementor-icons.min.css
global.css
frontend-legacy.min.css
swiper.min.js
I've been browsing this for a few days and I'm starting to feel lost, so any help will be much appreciated!
You can dequeue the Elementor CSS file with the use of wp_deregister_style and wp_dequeue_style. For this, you need to pass the CSS file handle name. You can use the below code to dequeue the Elementor plugin global.css file.
function dequeue_elementor_global__css() {
wp_dequeue_style('elementor-global');
wp_deregister_style('elementor-global');
}
add_action('wp_print_styles', 'dequeue_elementor_global__css', 9999);
Here elementor-global is the handle name of the global.css file. You can get any file handle name by stylesheet id. For example:
If any stylesheet id is the elementor-global-css then this file handle will be elementor-global
My understanding is that all Elementor frontend styles, e.g. your post-1234.css files, are children of 'elementor-frontend', which means if you unload it, none of them will load.
If you load your new, optimised frontend.min.css files with the same name, then it should work.
e.g.
function adg_dequeue_unnecessary_files() {
wp_dequeue_style( 'elementor-frontend' ); // remove Elementor's custom-frontend.min.css
wp_deregister_style( 'elementor-frontend' );
wp_register_style( 'elementor-frontend', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/custom-frontend.min.css' ); // Purified replacement for Elementor's custom-frontend.min.css
wp_enqueue_style( 'elementor-frontend' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'adg_dequeue_unnecessary_files' );
Also. Can you not just add your custom-frontend.min.css to the relevant location in your Child Theme and it will overwrite the Parent theme version by default?
This seems to work. Tested on a few pages and posts:
add_action( 'elementor/frontend/after_enqueue_styles', function() {
wp_deregister_style( 'elementor-frontend' );
wp_dequeue_style( 'elementor-frontend' );
wp_register_style( 'elementor-frontend', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/assets/css/custom-elementor-front-end.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'elementor-frontend', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/assets/css/custom-elementor-front-end.css' );
} );
I am trying to dequeue some scripts from non-relevant pages in wordpress. It is working fine with some (like contact-form-7) but not with other plugins. Is there any reasons these .js and .css files are still being loaded, despite being dequeued?
Code below is loaded via functions.php in child-theme. Relevant plugin is woo-variation-swatches.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_swatches_script_conditional_loading' );
function custom_swatches_script_conditional_loading(){
// Edit page IDs here
if(! is_page(39341) )
{
wp_dequeue_style('woo-variation-swatches'); // Dequeue CSS file.
wp_dequeue_style('woo-variation-swatches-theme-override'); // Dequeue CSS file.
wp_dequeue_style('woo-variation-swatches-tooltip'); // Dequeue CSS file.
wp_dequeue_script('woo-variation-swatches'); // Dequeue JS Script file.
}
}
You want to either hook it after wp_enqueue_scripts like wp_print_styles or simply try setting the priority of your add_action.
Looking at the plugin source code. It enqueue's the scripts with priority 15.
woo-variation-swatches.php line 103.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', array( $this, 'enqueue_scripts' ), 15 );
So really, anything priority higher than 15 should dequeue it like this :
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_swatches_script_conditional_loading', 99 );
I am trying to link my stylesheet to another page in Wordpress. The actual Wordpress installation is within a folder, within the actual site. It's set up this way because I only want to use WP for a specific section of the site (it was an afterthought, I know this is isn't necessarily the "correct" way to do things...)
I have the front page set up and the styles are all working fine. But when a create a new page and try to use get_header to pull in the styles, they don't work. The browser is looking for a page called styles.css, not a stylesheet.
I've tried to use "enqueue" in the functions.php file, but it still won't work. I have a copy of my style sheet in the theme folder and also one inside a css folder.
Example of using enqueue for the copy inside the css folder:
wp_enqueue_script( 'styles', 'get_stylesheet_directory_uri()' . 'css/styles2.css' );
*I am using get_header in my page template file, (same header as the front page which is working fine), and it is linked this way:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../css/styles2.css">
I'm pretty sure the issue is the "../" but when I substitute echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri()....... instead of the ../, it doesn't work as it should.
Any help would be great as I'm newer to WP development.
Thanks everyone
You have to write like this for linking template style sheet ...
wp_enqueue_script( 'styles', get_template_directory_uri(). 'css/styles2.css', array(), '0.0.1' );
Add Style sheet like this:
wp_enqueue_style( 'styles', bloginfo('template_url').'/css/styles2.css' );
You can view more detail at here
You need to hook the css:
If you are using child theme then hook like:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_unique_function_name_here', 0);
function enqueue_unique_function_name_here()
{
wp_enqueue_style( 'css_unique_handle_name_here', get_template_directory_uri(). 'folder_path_inside_child_theme/style_sheet_file_name_here.css', array(), '0.0.1' );
}
If you are using parent theme (no child theme) then hook like:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_unique_function_name_here', 0);
function enqueue_unique_function_name_here()
{
wp_enqueue_style( 'css_unique_handle_name_here', get_stylesheet_directory_uri(). 'folder_path_inside_child_theme/style_sheet_file_name_here.css', array(), '0.0.1' );
}
If want to enqueue in admin side then just change hook name "wp_enqueue_scripts" to "admin_enqueue_scripts".
Try now.
You have used wp_enqueue_script() instead of wp_enqueue_style()
wp_enqueue_style used for Enqueue Style
wp_enqueue_script used for Enqueue Script
wp_enqueue_style( 'styles', 'get_stylesheet_directory_uri()' . 'css/styles2.css' );
Here is the full example for the same.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_custom_style');
function enqueue_custom_style()
{
wp_enqueue_style( 'styles', 'get_stylesheet_directory_uri()' . 'css/styles2.css' );
}
I have three parts to this question.
I am building a portfolio site in Wordpress and have some weird links going on. For example on my about page, here is what my link looks like : localhost/AFolder/anotherfolder/index.php/about-me. I went into Permalinks to try and change the link, but when I changed it to post name instead of custom structure, which it was before I was left with a broken link on my about page. My home page is index.php I have no idea why the link is referencing index.php How can I fix this?
My design calls for a grey background on the about page and it is not displaying. Everything else seems to be working except for the background. Is the link (refer to question above) interfering with the CSS because it is referencing the index.php file in the link? Most of the background on my homepage (index.php) is white and it looks the same on my about page. Maybe these two matters are related.
What is the best way to link custom CSS in Wordpress. I found a way to do it already but I'm not sure if this is best practice: see above snippet.
Is there a good plugin that's better suited to link the CSS or is there another good trick to do this?
<?php
function theme_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'bootstrap_css', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/bootstrap.min.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'navbar_css', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'carousel_css', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/carousel.css' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_styles' );
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_custom_styles' );
function add_custom_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'about_css', get_template_directory_uri() . '/about-page.css' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_page_css' );
function custom_page_css() {
if ( is_page( 'about-me' ) {
wp_enqueue_style( 'about_css', get_template_directory_uri() . '/about-page.css' );
}
}
Have you tried en-queuing the styles ??
Try these codes in your functions.php file within your theme folder.
The following method adds the two styles (style.css and another_style.css) to the part where wp_head(); action is called (usually the header part of the page).
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_custom_styles' );
function add_custom_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style('id_of_style', get_template_directory_uri().'/path/to/style.css' );
wp_enqueue_style('id_of_another_style', get_template_directory_uri().'/path/to/another_style.css' );
}
Here the styles are added in order. The order in which the styles are enqueued affects the styling of page as there may be chances of overriding styles. So you have to enqueue the styles in order.
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts, 'custom_page_css' );
function custom_page_css() {
if ( is_page( 'Custom' ) {
wp_enqueue_style( 'custom-css', get_template_directory_uri().'/path-to/contact.css' );
}
}
Here the style is added to the header of Custom page only.
Try these once. Remember one thing, you have to know the order of css files. This might be some pain in ass. I also got that gray background but ordering the styles solved the problem for me.
The same goes for adding scripts.
I want to remove css and js file from a template in WordPress by using wp_dequeue_script and wp_dequeue_style function but my code is not working.
Js File: <script type='text/javascript' src='http://localhost/worpress/wp-content/themes/goliath/theme/assets/js/vendor/jquery.hoverintent.min.js'></script>
Css File: <link rel='stylesheet' id='plsh-bbpress-css' href='http://www.smeadvisor.com/wp-content/themes/goliath/theme/assets/css/bbpress.css' type='text/css' media='all' />
I am using goliath theme and I have added below code in goliath-child theme functions.php file
add_action('wp_print_scripts','example_dequeue_myscript');
function example_dequeue_myscript() {
wp_dequeue_script( 'jquery.hoverintent' );
}
add_action('wp_print_styles','example_dequeue_mystyle');
function example_dequeue_mystyle() {
wp_dequeue_style( 'bbpress' );
}
Please help me in these!
wp_dequeue_script() and wp_dequeue_style() works only if the related CSS and JS files are included in the website by wp_enqueue_script()..
wp_dequeue_script and wp_dequeue_style work by taking the handle as the parameter.
You should have registered as like follows :
wp_register_style('pagination-style', plugins_url('style.css', __FILE__));
wp_enqueue_style('pagination-style');
and script like this :
wp_register_script('jquery', 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js');
wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
And then use handle for removing css and js as follows:
wp_dequeue_style('pagination-style');
wp_dequeue_script('jquery');
Hope Remove css and js
Try
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','example_dequeue_myscript', 30);
function example_dequeue_myscript()
{
wp_dequeue_script('jquery.hoverintent');
wp_dequeue_style('bbpress');
}
You have to enqueue these file in header or footer, not directly write in script or link tag that is proper method and then enqueue your script in condition. like this
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','example_dequeue_mystyle');
function example_dequeue_mystyle() {
if(!is_page('my-page-slug')){
wp_enqueue_style( 'bbpress' );
wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery.hoverintent' );
}
}
Hope you got that.
If the files are enqueued (not hardcoded in title) then the problem may be in wrong script/style names. Try to use this in functios.php first:
function remove_head_scripts() {
global $wp_styles;
var_dump($wp_styles);
global $wp_scripts;
var_dump($wp_scripts);
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_head_scripts', 101 );
Then you can see all of the enqueued styles & scripts with their respective slugs printed somewhere inside your html (try to use ctrl+U in browser). Looking in that lists you can locate your desired script & style & find out it's slugs. If you can't see them, try to play with priority (101) or hook (wp_enqueue_scripts)
After you know exact slugs of your script & style, replace snippet above with new one:
function remove_head_scripts() {
wp_dequeue_style( 'exact_style_slug' );
wp_dequeue_script( 'exact_script_slug' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_head_scripts', 101 );
Again, you can play with priority & hook. It highly depends on where your theme/plugin is enqueueing that script & style.
