Their frontend request supplies FSE/theme/block styles. - Parent dashboard starts without editor/media stack by default. `inc/wi-admin-functions.php` and `inc/assets/class-admin-scripts.php` gate editor/media behind `wi_editor=1`. - `assets/webinarignition-admin-dashboard.js` reloads once with `wi_editor=1&wi_tab=` only when a tab actually needs `wp.editor` or `wp.media`. - Lazy rich editors are plain `textarea.wi-lazy-wpeditor` at first render, then initialized via `wiInitLazyEditorsIn(tabId)` on tab open. ## Do Not Regress - Do not add unconditional `wp_enqueue_editor()`, `wp_enqueue_media()`, `wp-block-editor`, `wp-components`, or React/block handles to the dashboard start path. - Do not render server-side `wp_editor()` in WI dashboard tab markup unless there is a measured reason. Prefer `textarea.wi-lazy-wpeditor`. - Do not make iframe previews use `src` at initial page load. Use `data-src` and load when the tab becomes visible. - Keep preview iframes muted when loaded; autoplay video in previews must not produce sound. ## QA Pattern - Initial dashboard load should show: no `wp.editor`, no `wp.media`, no TinyMCE/Quicktags/Media-Views/block UI scripts in the parent. - Opening tab9 should set iframe `src` only then, show spinner while loading, and render the real FSE-colored page. - Opening editor-heavy tabs (for example emails/tab8) should reload with `wi_editor=1`, preserve the target tab, initialize TinyMCE, and keep the Insert Placeholder dropdown working.
