# Exclude wp_editor for Async JavaScript

 * I want to disable Async JavaScript for wp_editor. I use wp_editor on my frontend
   and it is not loading the editor.
 * I want to exclude it in the ‘Script Exclusion’ setting. But I have no idea what
   script to exclude. I need the script name to exclude the wp_edior. Please help.
 * This is the wp_edior callback function:
 *     ```
       <?php   $editor_id = 'description';
       	$settings  = array(
       		'media_buttons' => false,
       		'quicktags'=> false,
       		);
       	wp_editor( $content, $editor_id, $settings ); ?>
       ```

 * Can you try adding `wp-includes` to the exclusion list?

   Are you talking about the theme exclusion. Theme exclusion applies to the whole
   theme man. I need Async JavaScript on the theme, I want to exclude it in case
   of the wp_editor only.

 * I can also exclude it fr the URL only if possible

 * no, your theme does not “live” in wp-includes 🙂
 * try `wp-includes/js/tinymce` or `wp-includes/js/` or `wp-includes/` indeed?
