AJAX scripts and page templates

[karen]

I posted this on top of a different subject and didn’t get a reply, so I will try a new post.
I am using W3TotalCache. It is possible to load scripts by template. As best I can tell there are two templates for the events Calendar ECP-page_template and ECP-Single Template. I am not a coder so bear with me. which does the jquery.pjax.js and events.js use? or is it for both of them? That way I could load these on just one template. Perhaps that will help with the load. thanks

Hi there Karen. While I’m not sure about this one myself, I want to help you out here. So I’ve asked our dev Jonah to take a look when he hits the forums later today to try and offer up any thoughts he may have. Stay tuned.

Hi Karen

I believe the jquery.pjax.js and events.js scripts are loaded globally. You can disable them but keep in mind you’ll lose some functionality.

To disable both scripts across the whole site, add this to your functions.php file

Of course you could then do something like this in the template header:

That post didn’t seem to come out that great. To disable both scripts across the whole site, add this to your functions.php file

Hi Karen,

To add to what Henry posted you could also add some conditional events page wrappers to conditionally remove those scripts when needed. I’ve got those wrappers here: https://gist.github.com/2415009

To answer your question though… I believe jquery.pjax.js is used only on the calendar pages and events.js is used for the tooltips on the calendar and the calendar widget. So, you should be able to safely remove those scripts on all other pages except for the calendar and wherever you have the calendar widget displayed.

I hope that helps but let us know if there’s anything else you need with this.

Cheers,
Jonah
