    Prevent css repetition in each content type

    Hi all,

    Currently, for every content type, css is embedded into the content type itself. Hence, css related to content type will only load when the content type is added into the page.

    However, if you add more than one of the same content type in a page, it will load the css again and again.

    So , this needs to be prevented.

    Could you post screen dumps or code examples? As far as im aware no css is embedded in templates or partials per default...

    Or are you talking about some kind of backend grid renderer...?

    Hi,

    to give you an idea: You could write a method to avoid duplicate css. (Following is untested)

        private Dictionary<string, MvcHtmlString> stylesheetsLoaded = new Dictionary<string, MvcHtmlString>();
        public IHtmlString EnsureStyleSheet(string url)
        {
            MvcHtmlString result = MvcHtmlString.Empty;
            if (!stylesheetsLoaded.ContainsKey(url))
            {
                result = MvcHtmlString.Create($"<link rel=\"styleheet\" href=\"{url}\" />");
                stylesheetsLoaded.Add(url, result);
            }
            return result;
        }

    Hi,

    You can call it like this:

    @EnsureStyleSheet("~App_Plugins/QuickLinks/Css/QuickLinks.css")
    

    For javascript-files you can do the same.

    You have to make sure that you have a single instance of the class containing the methods. Otherwise it won't work and the result will be the same.

    This is one of the reasons we use ClientDependency. Our websites have reusable components built around Archetype or Nested Content so each component has a Partial View and a CSS file and (sometimes) a JavaScript file. The CSS and JavaScript are loaded via ClientDependency which handles the de-duping for us.

    For example, in a banner ads component the partial view (~/Views/Partials/Archetype/BannerAds.cshtml) would contain this:

    @using ClientDependency.Core.Mvc
    @{
          Html.RequiresCss("/css/Views/Partials/Archetype/BannerAds.css");
    }
