Google maps api loads but not visible on site, but affects site speed /load time

[Linsey]

Hi Support,

Via our webhost we found out that on certain pages “maps.google.com” is loading (and affects site speed) while this map is not visible on the page. This reduces the load-time of the site. They cannot find where this happens (?) or where this google maps api is hiding in the system. Any idea where it is, or how I can find this hidden and unnecessary api?

About site speed, when I follow your instructions http://www.swiftideas.com/knowledgebase/load-time-optimization/, do I still need to group CSS style to improve site speed/load time?

Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Please paste this code at functions.php of child theme.

function sf_enqueue_styles_new(){
wp_deregister_style('sf-maps');
wp_dequeue_style( 'sf-maps' );
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'sf_enqueue_styles_new', 111); 

Thanks
Mohammad
