    Hi,
    I used to have the following snippet placed in my child theme’s functions.php:

    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'child_manage_woocommerce_styles', 99 );

function child_manage_woocommerce_styles() {
	//remove generator meta tag
	remove_action( 'wp_head', array( $GLOBALS['woocommerce'], 'generator' ) );

	//first check that woo exists to prevent fatal errors
	if ( function_exists( 'is_woocommerce' ) ) {
		//dequeue scripts and styles
		if ( ! is_woocommerce() && ! is_cart() && ! is_checkout() ) {
			wp_dequeue_style( 'woocommerce_frontend_styles' );
			wp_dequeue_style( 'woocommerce_fancybox_styles' );
			wp_dequeue_style( 'woocommerce_chosen_styles' );
			wp_dequeue_style( 'woocommerce_prettyPhoto_css' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc_price_slider' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-single-product' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-add-to-cart' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-cart-fragments' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-checkout' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-add-to-cart-variation' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-single-product' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-cart' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'wc-chosen' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'woocommerce' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'prettyPhoto' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'prettyPhoto-init' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'jquery-blockui' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'jquery-placeholder' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'fancybox' );
			wp_dequeue_script( 'jqueryui' );
		}
	}

    This was in order to only load the Woocommerce scripts on the shop relevant pages to increase page speed.
    Now I saw that with the new update the ajax has changed and was wondering if the above code still has any effect.

    Thank you for your help.

    Should not affect ajax – its fired first.

    Sorry, I am new to WP, what do you mean? My question was if I still need to use the code above or if it does not have any effect now since the new update. I know though that at least the “cart fragments” ajax part does have an effect.

    Using the code is not recommended tbh. Once those scripts have been loaded once, they are cached by the browser so all you’re really doing is delaying them being cached and loaded.

    Hi,
    but Pingdom&Co show increased page loading with all these in place. Also, I am getting notifications for browser leveraging&static queris for these ajax…

    The initial page load will be higher yes, but once its cached thats it for the rest of the session.

    Actually, even when the page is cashed, I still get
    “Remove query strings from static resources” and “Specify a cache validator” for this particulaar ajax.
