# Loading JS/CSS files in admin

 * Hi,
   I’m working with a developer on the MapSVG plugin ([https://mapsvg.com](https://mapsvg.com)).
   In resolving an unrelated problem he stated:
 * “please contact the developers of WP-simple-firewall plugin, I think I told you
   already that they load their JS/CSS files on all pages of WP admin, making the
   buttons in mapsvg green, while they should be black. They shouldn’t do that.”
 * So, I’m just the messenger – don’t shoot me. I don’t even know if what is says
   is correct or not. What I would ask is, is this part of a security feature for
   the admin of WordPress that I could maybe turn off with a parameter?
 * Thanks!

 * We load a limited set of styles in the WP Admin area, because we need to for 
   certain items. Could you ask the developer to specify the CSS selectors in our
   style sheet that’s problematic, please? We’ll look at updating any styles for
   our next release.
 * Thanks.

 * [@dleigh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dleigh/) Just a quick reminder —
   have you had a chance to ask the MapSVG developer if they can provide the specific
   CSS selectors from our styles that are causing the issue, please? We’re about
   to release a patch and would like to address this if necessary.
 * Many thanks in advance.

 * Yeah, I asked him and have not had a response yet. Just asked again. Sorry about
   the delay.

 * [@dleigh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dleigh/) Thanks so much for following
   up again. Keep us posted if/when you hear back from them.
 * And absolutely no worries about the delay – we’re grateful for everything you’re
   doing to help. 🙂

 * We’ve just published v20.0.10, so if you want to try upgrading and seeing if 
   it helps, let me know. I cleaned a few styles up from the CSS in the admin area
   and maybe I caught the ones causing issues. If not, let us know what the dev 
   from the other plugin reports back.
