    Good morning!

    The printfriendly.js file loads by default on all pages which increases page load time. How can I dequeue this script so it’s only loaded on the pages it needs to loaded on? We have done this with all of our scripts and really sped up our site. Thank you!

    Example:

    function printfriendly_dequeue_script() {
    // if this is not a singluar page remove the script
	if (  ! is_singular () ) {
		wp_dequeue_script( 'printfriendly' );
	}
}
add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'printfriendly_dequeue_script' );

    Thanks so much for the reply. We are using it on the latest and greatest code of Version 3.14.7.

    Can you share the URL to a page we can observe the issue?

    Yes, do you have a contact form so I can send the link instead of making it public?

    If you did not receive my last email, can you just explain how to dequeue your scripts please.

    function printfriendly_dequeue_script() {
    // if this is not a singluar page remove the script
	if (  ! is_singular () ) {
		wp_dequeue_script( 'YOUR-SCRIPT-ACTION' );
	}
}
add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'printfriendly_dequeue_script' );

    Notice in the example above, I just need to understand how you call your script. Then I can disable it on the pages I do not need it to run on. I need to place your scripts call action where I have “YOUR-SCRIPT-ACTION”.

    I do this for all of our plugins that load scripts on all pages. Most people do not need that and it keeps the site running very quick and clean.

    Inside the plugin folder is a file called pf.php. You can see how we’re calling the script from there starting at line 424.

    In the plugin, the function is print_script_footer()

    I appreciate you getting back to me here. Could there be another call?

    Even a basic function as below, which should remove it from all pages does not work.

    function pf_dequeue_script() {
    wp_dequeue_script( 'print_script_footer' );
}
add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'pf_dequeue_script', 100 );

    Please take a look at plugins/printfriendly/pf.php to see how we’re calling the script.

    Unfortunately we’re not familiar with this issue, nor able to replicate on our test sites.
