Prevent loading of functions

Question

I use a theme, that includes sharing functions of a service called "Sharethis" and Font-Awesome. As far as I can see the functions are loaded from the following lines in the functions.php.

TT_ENQUEUE::add_css(array('//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css')); TT_ENQUEUE::add_js(array('https://ws.sharethis.com/button/buttons.js'));

How can I use a child function (since the changes in the parent would be gone after an update) to:

completely disable the sharethis-feature tell the theme to load font-awesome from the local server?

Any help is appreciated :)

Greetings Markus

I'll assume add_css and add_js are wrappers for wp_enqueue_style and wp_enqueue_script.

As such, the way you register any style / script is through either wp_dequeue_style and wp_dequeue_script, where you pass the handle of the scripts.

See: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_dequeue_script/

Now, from that code alone, it doesn't seem like he's passing any handles to these "register" functions, so take a look at the source, he has to pass their names within that class' static methods.
