Removing other themes except one

Often clients have only one storeview and want to use just one theme design. But when running the static content deploy , compilation or putting site to production mode Magento is starting to deploy all the theme designs. To save the time you can disable not used themes using following instructions:

For example you use only Argento Force theme

1. Disable all unused theme editors using command:

   bin/magento module:disable Swissup_ThemeEditorArgentoEssence Swissup_ThemeEditorArgentoFlat Swissup_ThemeEditorArgentoLuxury Swissup_ThemeEditorArgentoMall Swissup_ThemeEditorArgentoPure2 Swissup_ThemeEditorArgentoStripes
   

2. Go to your store root composer.json file

3. After "require": { ... }, section plase add new replace with disabled designs:

   "replace": {
       "swissup/theme-frontend-argento-essence": "*",
       "swissup/theme-frontend-argento-flat": "*",
       "swissup/theme-frontend-argento-pure2": "*",
       "swissup/theme-frontend-argento-mall": "*",
       "swissup/theme-frontend-argento-stripes": "*",
       "swissup/theme-frontend-argento-luxury": "*"
   },
   

4. Run composer update swissup/argento-m2 command. It should upgrade all Argento modules and remove themes listed above.
