Title: [Plugin: Simple-Lightbox] Dequeue or deactivate plugin for Mobile Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Simple-Lightbox] Dequeue or deactivate plugin for Mobile * [donnietheg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/donnietheg/) * (@donnietheg) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dequeue-or-deactivate-simple-lightbox-plugin-in-wordpress/) * I am working on a photography portfolio for a client and need to deactivate Simple- Lightbox for mobile screens. This is the site: [http://www.dianashearwood.com/behind-the-mall/](http://www.dianashearwood.com/behind-the-mall/) * I was successful in deactivating a jquery tooltip script using the following code in my functions.php file: * ``` require_once (dirname(__FILE__) . '/library/js/Mobile-Detect-2.8.11/Mobile_Detect.php'); $detect = new Mobile_Detect; if ( $detect->isMobile() ) { function wpdocs_dequeue_script() { wp_dequeue_script( 'jquery-tooltip' ); } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wpdocs_dequeue_script', 100 ); } ``` * So, to explain, the lightweight PHP class Mobile_Detect.php ([http://mobiledetect.net/](http://mobiledetect.net/)) is used to detect if the user agent is a tablet. Then I use a dequeue function to deactivate the script. This is possible because I have registered and enqueued the tooltip script in functions.php using: * ``` function load_scripts() { wp_register_script('jquery-tooltip', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/library/js/jquery-tooltip.js', array('tooltip'), '1.0', false); wp_enqueue_script('jquery-tooltip'); } add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_scripts'); ``` * I have looked hard into the Simple-Lightbox code to see where it enqueues the six scripts it puts in the footer (i.e. lib.core.js, lib.view.js, client.js, tag.item.js, tag.ui.js and handler.image.js), but I am unable to identify the id used in enqueuing them. * I figured that the lib.core.js script might be the one to dequeue so I tried the following but it does not work: * ``` function wpdocs_dequeue_lightbox() { wp_dequeue_script( 'core' ); } add_action( 'enqueue_client_files', 'wpdocs_dequeue_lightbox', 100 ); ``` * Here is the code from a few files that seems to be involved in the enqueue scripts. Any help is greatly appreciated! * ===== * **In controller.php**: * ``` /** * Declare client files (scripts, styles) * @uses parent::_client_files() * @return void */ protected function _client_files($files = null) { $js_path = 'client/js/'; $js_path .= ( SLB_DEV ) ? 'dev' : 'prod'; $files = array ( 'scripts' => array ( 'core' => array ( 'file' => "$js_path/lib.core.js", 'deps' => 'jquery', 'enqueue' => false, 'in_footer' => true, ), 'view' => array ( 'file' => "$js_path/lib.view.js", 'deps' => array('[core]'), 'context' => array( array('public', $this->m('is_request_valid')) ), 'in_footer' => true, ), ), 'styles' => array ( 'core' => array ( 'file' => 'client/css/app.css', 'context' => array('public'), ) ) ); parent::_client_files($files); } ``` * **In class.component.php**: * ``` /** * Enqueue files in client * @param string $type (optional) Type of file to load (singular) (Default: All client file types) */ public function enqueue_client_files($type = null) { if ( empty($type) ) { $type = array ( 'script', 'style'); } if ( !is_array($type) ) { $type = array ( $type ); } foreach ( $type as $t ) { $m = (object) array ( 'get' => $this->m('get_' . $t . 's'), 'enqueue' => 'wp_enqueue_' . $t, ); $v = $this->util->get_plugin_version(); $files = call_user_func($m->get); $param_final = ( 'script' == $t ) ? true : 'all'; foreach ( $files as $f ) { $f = (object) $f; //Format handle $handle = $this->get_handle($f->handle); //Format dependencies $deps = array(); foreach ( $f->deps as $dep ) { if ( $this->util->has_wrapper($dep) ) { $dep = $this->get_handle( $this->util->remove_wrapper($dep) ); } $deps[] = $dep; } call_user_func($m->enqueue, $handle, $f->uri, $deps, $v, $param_final); } unset($files, $f, $param_final, $handle, $deps, $dep); } } /** * Enqueue scripts */ public function enqueue_scripts() { $this->enqueue_client_files('script'); } ``` * **In class.content.handlers.php**: * ``` /** * Build client output * Load handler files in client */ public function client_output() { //Get handlers for current request foreach ( $this->request_matches as $handler ) { $handler->enqueue_scripts(); } } ``` * **And in class.base.php** : * ``` /** * Enqueues files for client output (scripts/styles) based on context * @uses admin_enqueue_scripts Action hook depending on context * @uses wp_enqueue_scripts Action hook depending on context * @param bool $footer (optional) Whether to enqueue footer files (Default: No) * @return void */ function enqueue_client_files($footer = false) { //Validate if ( !is_bool($footer) ) { $footer = false; } //Enqueue files foreach ( $this->client_files as $type => $files ) { $func = $this->get_client_files_handler($type, 'enqueue'); if ( !$func ) { continue; } foreach ( $files as $fkey => $f ) { //Skip previously-enqueued files and shadow files if ( $f->enqueued || !$f->enqueue ) { continue; } //Enqueue files only for current location (header/footer) if ( isset($f->in_footer) ) { if ( $f->in_footer != $footer ) { continue; } } elseif ( $footer ) { continue; } $load = true; //Global Callback if ( is_callable($f->callback) && !call_user_func($f->callback) ) { $load = false; } //Context if ( $load && !empty($f->context) ) { //Reset $load before evaluating context $load = false; //Iterate through contexts foreach ( $f->context as $ctx ) { //Context + Callback if ( is_array($ctx) ) { //Stop checking context if callback is invalid if ( !is_callable($ctx[1]) || !call_user_func($ctx[1]) ) continue; $ctx = $ctx[0]; } //Stop checking context if valid context found if ( $this->util->is_context($ctx) ) { $load = true; break; } } } //Load valid file if ( $load ) { //Mark file as enqueued $this->client_files[$type]->{$fkey}->enqueued = true; $func($f->id); } } } } /** * Enqueue client files in the footer */ public function enqueue_client_files_footer() { $this->enqueue_client_files(true); } ``` The topic ‘[Plugin: Simple-Lightbox] Dequeue or deactivate plugin for Mobile’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [deactivate](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/deactivate/) * [dequeue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/dequeue/) * 0 replies * 1 participant * Last reply from: [donnietheg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/donnietheg/) * Last activity: [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dequeue-or-deactivate-simple-lightbox-plugin-in-wordpress/) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
