Remove default js and css from required header

Permalink
Hi

Does anyone have a way of removing the follow from header required?

These are not needed on the front end, only when logged in and editing.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/concrete/css/ccm.base.css?v=f1269e5712d750bca90cfaed136f394a" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="/concrete/js/jquery.js?v=f1269e5712d750bca90cfaed136f394a"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/concrete/js/ccm.base.js?v=f1269e5712d750bca90cfaed136f394a"></script>


Thanks.

1. Copy concrete/elements/header_required.php into the root elements directory.
2. Find this:
$this->addHeaderItem($html->css('ccm.base.css'), 'CORE');
$this->addHeaderItem($html->javascript('jquery.js'), 'CORE');
$this->addHeaderItem($html->javascript('ccm.base.js', false, true), 'CORE');
3. Replace with:

if($u->isLoggedIn()) {
$this->addHeaderItem($html->css('ccm.base.css'), 'CORE');
$this->addHeaderItem($html->javascript('jquery.js'), 'CORE');
$this->addHeaderItem($html->javascript('ccm.base.js', false, true), 'CORE');
}

NOTE: If you're using jQuery in your theme, then make sure it's loaded BEFORE:
<?php Loader::element('header_required'); ?>
Otherwise it will conflict with the Concrete5 version and your edit mode won't work properly.

I find it's worth keeping Concrete's jQuery, rather than using a custom one as that way you always load the right one. The only reasons you'd have for using a different version is a) you prefer to use a CDN for jQuery to improve performance b) you're trying to use jQuery features/plugins which aren't in the jQuery version bundled with C5.

When you do need your own jQuery as well as Concretes it's advisable to put your jQuery in noConflict mode

Thanks Cube.

I was afraid of this, rewriting the CORE :-(
