How to avoid duplicate 2 Font Awesome requests inc CSS

[mhote]

Hi,

Trying to reduce http requests. We are getting 4 (2 x 2) requests for font awesome.

Adding 90kb to homepage and 2 extra calls.

From both the theme and our form plugin, planso. see:

https://tools.pingdom.com/#!/exlYI8/hoteliyo.com/?burstcache

The plugin author has said:

– – –
We are loading all the external links ( Including Font-awsome ) using wordpress standard method (Using enqueue function). This wordpress function will not load the scripts or styles if they are already loaded in the same way (WordPress standard way using enqueue function) in your site. If your theme is also doing it in the same way then there will not be any extra http requests by planso forms.

How can we ensure this js and css file are only loaded once?

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

functions sf_removeAwesome(){
wp_deregister_style('fontawesome');
wp_dequeue_style('fontawesome');
}

add_action('init','sf_removeAwesome');

Thanks
Mohammad

Hi @mhote

We will adjust our font-awesome stylesheet id to match for the next update. You can do that now by editing uplift/functions.php line 256:

wp_register_style('font-awesome', SF_LOCAL_PATH .'/css/font-awesome.min.css', array(), NULL, 'all');

That should sort it.
