[Feature Request] Filter to remove fontawesome about bootscore

[justinkruit]

That's more work than a // on the enqueue or a add_filter('who_says_you_cant_code_onmobile', '__retrun_false');. The idea here is to make it as easy as possible to opt out of FA.

Function "__retrun_false" not found. Maybe develop on pc? 😜

Currently looking into this, with the idea to add more filters in general.

If you have an idea, please create a PR. But @justinkruit is FA pro user as well, maybe he has an idea or can quickly explain how he solves that.

I see the mentioned using priorities etc. Have you tried making a new function in your child theme, dequeue fontawesome in there, and then register that function as a hook with a later priority? That should solve this issue. (Can't write an example at the moment, as I'm on my phone haha)

That's probably exactly why I misspelled that lolol. Used to autocorrect from mobile.

So, if I am not totally obtuse, you can and should do this:

1. In the child theme do the usual parent and child themes styles enqueue stuff. So generally that means add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'bootscore_child_enqueue_styles' ); and in the CB, you just use the default parent enqueue and child enqueue
2. Then, in the child theme, in a separate callback you do add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'go_away', 11 ); where the CB does:

function go_away(){
	wp_dequeue_style( 'fontawesome' );
}

This should work. The reason you need priority 11 is that the parent theme uses default 10, and if you load this dequeue on the same priority it wont work. You could of course also go max and use PHP_INT_MAX - 2 just to leave some space for someone to re-enqueue it after (you never know)

I suggest to also do remove_filter('style_loader_tag', 'bootscore_fa_preload'); so you do not get any overhead (even if the fa styles are gone, this fn still runs unless you remove it)

This should do the trick.
