Disable loading of magnific-popup and simple-line-icons was created by WinniePooh

Hello,

with the new 2.8 update of K2 (thank you for this one) I've noticed that K2 loads the CSS files magnific-popup.min.css and simple-line-icons.min.css from a CDN. Why needs the files to be loaded? I'm using a template override, so I can't see any changes. How can I disable the loading of these files?

Regards

You can alter some core files to remove the lightbox but since it is bound with frontend editing, this can lead to unexpected behaviour and some JS issues. I would not recommend performing such actions.

Why does K2 load more and more of these CDN resources? And can not switch to localhost resources?
I come from China, when we use K2, because of the need to load these CDNs, causing K2 to run very slowly ...

I know using CDN is to some extent to speed up loading, but for some areas may be the opposite,
Hope later updated version, at least to switch localhost load, so that can meet the needs of different situations

thank you very much

Im not using frontend editing, I even disabled it
What core files should I edit to remove magnific and simple line icons?

You can try to modify this file,
administrator/components/com_k2/helpers/html.php
Find the relevant load file and comment it

E.g

$document->addStyleSheet('https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/simple-line-icons/2.4.1/css/simple-line-icons.min.css');

Modified as such

//$document->addStyleSheet('https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/simple-line-icons/2.4.1/css/simple-line-icons.min.css');

I would recommend moving this file into your local installation and change the path instead of not loading it at all.

I agree that you should provide the ability to choose loading from local or cloud for all the outside files
That's also a problem for minification and provides lots of js errors

Instead of editing a core file which will be ovewritten on updates, use one of the following:

- Create a simple system plugin and use php unset method within the onBeforeCompileHead() function.
- Install one of the many plugins that already has a method to unset and script. 2 that are popular are JCHOptimize and Jquery Easy

Plugin code

class plgSystemUnsetScripts extends JPlugin 
{
public function onBeforeCompileHead() 
{
if( JFactory::getApplication()->isAdmin() ) { return;}
$head = JFactory::getDocument()->getHeadData();
			
unset($head['styleSheets']['https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/simple-line-icons/2.4.1/css/simple-line-icons.min.css']);
JFactory::getDocument()->setHeadData($head);
	
}
}
