<div><br></div><div>The point about namespacing in Themes is that it applies to things that are *custom* to the Theme: Theme-defined functions, variables, constants, transients, meta data, stylesheets, scripts, etc. A bundled, third-party script or stylesheet isn't custom to the Theme.</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Well thanks for replying but my question is a bit different from the answer. Here it goes:<br>
<br>
# Scenario 1:<br>
<br>
Suppose Theme ABC enqueues a script which is a publicly available Javascript library (suppose 'tabulous.js'). The handle theme uses to enqueue the script is 'theme_slug_tabulous' and not 'tabulous'.<br>
<br>
In this case if another plugin also enqueues 'tabulous.js' then the theme will output two different tabulous.js files.<br>
<br>
Question: In case of a publicly available library, shouldn't the theme must use 'tabulous' instead of prefixing the theme slug.<br>
<br>
<br>
# Scenario 2:<br>
<br>
Another Theme XYZ enqueues a custom made javascript code with handle such as 'responsive' (without the theme-slug prefix).<br>
<br>
Question: In this case, should not the theme prefix the handle?<br>
<br>
<br>
# Scenario 3:<br>
<br>
Different themes use different handles to enqueue Google fonts such as 'Google-font-x'. Now this could create trouble when the same fonts are also enqueues via a plugin.<br>
<br>
Question: Is there any way to define a specific handle for a specific Google font and reduce the issue of duplicacy.<br>
<br>
<br>
Any suggestions, Thanks in Advance.<br>
<br>

A question regarding enqueuing script, style & Google fonts. When<br>
enqueuing them in a theme, the handle prefix should be what?<br>
<br>
1. JS Scripts and CSS files<br>
i) For publicly available libraries?<br>
ii) For custom created codes?<br>
<br>
2. Google Fonts<br>
1) When enqueued using <link> tag.<br>
<br>
Any suggestions, please?<br>
