# Eliminating custom CSS

 * I’d like to be able to take the custom css I have in the sparkling area, and 
   add it to the main stylesheet.
 * I’d also like to block that custom css component from ever being loaded, as it
   seems to be taking a long time to load (according to gtmetrix).
 * Is there any way to ignore this custom css section?

 * Hi [@kirkearl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kirkearl/),
 * I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.
 * Are you using the custom CSS by adding it on the following path?
 * Admin Area -> Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS
 * If yes then just remove the CSS code from there and add it in the style.css file
   of Sparkling child theme.
 * Best regards,
    Vinod Dalvi

 * That’s what I had initially done and things came out looking broken. Today I 
   turned off the LESS in the custom css options and that fixed things. Thanks.
 * If say I found another jetpack component taking a long time to load, is there
   a way to stop this from being called. For example I don’t believe I’m using photon
   but it’s loading… and taking a long time.
 * ***I take that back. I am using photon. For some reason it’s required to display
   a tiled gallery and I do have one page with a tiled gallery.

 * I do have another questions, why is my css breaking when I utilize the LESS option
   in the Sparkling theme?

 * Looks like it’s working ‘all of the sudden’. I clear my cache like a good boy
   should and I swear it was broken. I have to check next time prior to posting.
 * Closing this. Thanks.
