How to disable WordPress snap preview

Tuesday, December 16, 2008 10:26:42 PM

Hello !

You use WordPress and when you onMouseOver(a_link), a snap preview appears. It's really annoying huh ?
There is a trick to get rid of it. p


  • What really happens ?
    Once your wordpress blog loaded completely, it calls a javascript file.
    See this code below:

    <script defer="defer" id="snap_preview_anywhere" type="text/javascript" src="http://spa.snap.com/snap_preview_anywhere.js?ap=0&si=1&sb=1&key=e5a3c1e6dff5de35b1c6e7c470411886&domain=imac2011.wordpress.com&fl=wordpress&pub=pub-2311827-www.wordpress.com&es=all&lang=en"></script>
  • What is the solution ?
    Knowing this, it's really simple : just block the following JS file
    http://spa.snap.com/snap_preview_anywhere.js

    Or more exactly this one :
    http://spa.snap.com/snap_preview_anywhere.js*
  • Using Opera smile
    'Preferences' > 'Advanced' > 'Content' > 'Blocked Content...'
    and add : 
    http://spa.snap.com/snap_preview_anywhere.js*

  • Using Firefox
    If you're using Firefox, you have to get the adblock+ extension first.
    When it is installed, go to 'Tools' > 'Extensions' > 'Adblock+ Preferences'
    and add 
    http://spa.snap.com/snap_preview_anywhere.js*




Hey look, I do not see any snap previews now. Kewl cheers
