After creating a "slide", and later reloading it, I noted that there are several call-outs to unacceptable domains.

BACKGROUND:
1 - fonts.googleapis.com
2 - youtube.com
3 - ytimg.com
4 - google-analytics.com

I know what they are supposed to do, and I know what else they do as well. It is our goal to protect our visitors from any stalkers, be it Google, the Kremlin, or the kid up the street.

I see no need for the slider to call them and request they drop stalkers on my system, or my clients visitors tack my clients visitors, or me when using Layer Slider.

Testing, I find I can't proceeded with Layer Slider while blocking these snakes in disguise.

SUMMARY:
Is there a way I can proceed without spies reporting to those requests for information?

Hello,

The extension doesn't connect to google-analytics.com, check a 3rd party plugin or site template code. About other resources, the extension connects to youtube.com and ytimg.com to load YouTube API SDK. fonts.googleapis.com is used to load fonts from Google Fonts.

Wow and thanks for the continued fast and great support.

I'm sorry to say that my client wants to protect visitors rights to privacy (and I agree) and therefore cannot use something that allows 3rd party companies to embed stalkers.

You are correct in the googie analytic is not in the slider software. It was found as a left-over from being in the forum and a tab of the layer-slider GUI in another tab.

Of all the Joomla extensions I've worked with over the years, Ari-soft has the best support - ever!

Thanks again
