Pieter	WPML comes with constants to not load scripts and styles of the language switcher in case a theme does something different (https://wpml.org/documentation/support/wpml-coding-api/#disabling-wpmls-css-and-js-files). I'm looking to further optimise my site and I see that WPML also loads Blocks styling, a file of 11KB (wp-content/plugins/sitepress-multilingual-cms/dist/css/blocks/styles.css). As my site doesn't use the Block Editor, that file is redundant and I want to disable loading it. Is there a constant available to disable this? If not, can you tell me where it is enqueued, so I can perhaps write a function to remove it myself? Thanks!

Pieter	Found the solution myself, for others interested: function prefix_disable_wpml_block_styles() { if ( class_exists( 'WPML\BlockEditor\Loader' ) ) { wp_deregister_style( WPML\BlockEditor\Loader::SCRIPT_NAME ); } } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'prefix_disable_wpml_block_styles', 11 );
