At long last, I have identified the issue. The theme I was working in used the Minikit theme starter, which has a function that strips version numbers. function minikit_remove_wp_ver_css_js($src) { if (strpos($src, ‘ver=”)) $src = remove_query_arg(“ver’, $src); return $src; } Naturally, the version numbers returned once I stopped calling this function.
You will need to find how your theme is calling the styles. If with enqueue, you can use the wp_dequeue_style() on your child theme, if directly in header/footer, you will need to copy those to your child theme and remove those calls.
style.css is a requirement for any theme. Therefore you cannot dequeue it. You can however have a blank (except for the comments) style.css and enqueue another stylesheet for certain templates. To do so you would use wp_enqueue_scripts() like so : function my_enqueue_style() { if ( is_front_page() ) { wp_enqueue_style( ‘mystyle’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/mystyle.css’ ); } … Read more
Your theme has to call wp_head() in the head section of the html (probably best to place it at the end of it) and wp_footer() somewhere in your footer section. Those are mandatory function calls for all themes that want to be able to integrate with plugins and some core functionality like enqueuing JS and … Read more
There is a conditional tag is_admin() which checks are you in the Administration Panel or Frontend. So, if( !is_admin() ) { wp_enqueue_style( ‘css-minified’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . ‘style.css’, [], null, ‘all’ ); wp_enqueue_style( ‘font-awesome’, ‘https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css’, [], null, ‘all’ ); } See is_admin().
function.php should be functions.php.
I’d go for A) (but give that function another name to avoid collisions), because you can be absolutely sure that all manipulation of the request is over once admin_enqueue_scripts is fired. You cannot be sure if you just put it into the functions.php (or where ever this code will live). I don’t really see a … Read more
The correct way to register styles in WordPress is to enque them through wp_enqueue_style function in your theme’s functions.php. You can read and learn how to do it here – wp_enqueue_style /** * Proper way to enqueue scripts and styles */ function wpdocs_theme_name_scripts() { wp_enqueue_style( ‘style-name’, get_stylesheet_uri() ); wp_enqueue_script( ‘script-name’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/example.js’, array(), ‘1.0.0’, … Read more
It’s easy to add your plugin stylesheet after theme stylesheet. If you’re sure that your theme styles and plugin styles have the same selector weight (theme has this style .site-header { background-color: #ccc; } and your plugin has this .site-header { background-color: #f1f1f1; }) then enqueuing plugin stylesheet after theme stylesheet will work. If you’re … Read more
You can use the global $wp_scripts and global $wp_styles; to get all registerd scripts and styles. Eg. All Scripts // All Scripts global $wp_scripts; $all_scripts = array(); foreach( $wp_scripts->registered as $script ) : $all_scripts[$script->handle] = $script->src; endforeach; // echo ‘<pre>’; // print_r( $all_scripts ); // echo ‘</pre>’; All Styles // All Styles global $wp_styles; $all_styles … Read more
