Hi,

I got the following message:

Are this files automatic added and where can this be configured?

Thanks and kind regards,

    Hi Rwalle,

    They’re most definitely not a security issue. Those files are automatically generated based on the settings you’ve selected in the respective widgets and are perfectly normal.

    Hi Alex,

    Thanks for your reply. Where can I configure this settings? Could you explain why the files are automatically generated?

    Kind Regards,

    Rob

    Hi Rwalle,

    Hm. Perhaps I should have used different wording. You’re unable to, at this time, prevent the files from being generated in certain widgets. The files are storing, as you would expect, CSS that is generated based on the widget settings you’ve selected. They’re basically just a conversion from a LESS file into a CSS file. They’re stored to prevent doing this conversion every single page load. Which, obviously, can really add up.
