    Hi there,

    I noticed that scripts from maps.googleapis.com are loaded on every page in the admin backend, even though Google Maps is turned off in the theme options. I searched the forum and tried quite a few of the suggestions, but, to no avail.

    I finally was able to stop these requests by making a small change to a function in wp-content/themes/enfold/framework/php/class-gmaps.php:

    public function handler_wp_register_scripts()
{
	// this prevents the requests to maps.googleapis.com, if Google Maps is turned off in theme options
	if( $this->is_loading_prohibited() )
	{
		return;
	}
	// leave rest of function unchanged
}

    Although this works, I’d rather not change a core file. Plus, I’m new to Enfold and I am probably missing a better solution. Can someone please help me how to achieve the same, but do it properly? ;-)

    Thanks,

    Chris

    Hi Chris,

    You can use this filter in your child theme functions.php file:

    function ava_google_maps_skip_loading()
{
	return "skip_loading";
}
add_action('avf_skip_enqueue_scripts_backend_gmaps', "ava_google_maps_skip_loading");

    Best regards,
    Rikard
