But when the PayPal buttons are enabled on the Mini Cart, then the PayPal scripts will also be loaded on every page of your site where the Mini Cart is active. And the Mini Cart is almost omnipresent. * > Do you suggest only showing the paypal option on the checkout page and not > in the minicart? * Yes, precisely. This button can be disabled from the bottom of the Standard Payments tab: [https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-paypal-payments/#button-on-mini-cart](https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-paypal-payments/#button-on-mini-cart) * I hope this helps! * Kind regards, Niklas * Thread Starter [lucytech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucytech/) * (@lucytech) * [3 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reduce-unused-javascript-5/#post-16322356) * I disabled it from the mini cart but when I load the product pages it still says in the browser (edge, chrome) at the bottom – waiting for t.paypal.com or paypal. com * why is that?

So this looks like the [single product page buttons](https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-paypal-payments/#button-on-single-product) are still enabled. * These buttons appear to not show on your product pages, but this may be an issue with the theme. Regardless of whether they are rendered, the scripts are still loaded. From the Standard Payments tab, you can decide on which pages you want the buttons to be loaded. I suggest only keeping Cart and Checkout enabled if you want to reduce how often the scripts are loaded. * Kind regards, Niklas * Thread Starter [lucytech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucytech/) * (@lucytech) * [3 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reduce-unused-javascript-5/#post-16322962) * Thank you!!
