## Code

```php
// Stylesheet handles to remove.
$wpide_bb_icon_handles = array( 'font-awesome', 'font-awesome-5' );

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', function () use ( $wpide_bb_icon_handles ) {
    if ( is_user_logged_in() || isset( $_GET['fl_builder'] ) ) { // phpcs:ignore WordPress.Security.NonceVerification.Recommended
        return;
    }

    foreach ( $wpide_bb_icon_handles as $handle ) {
        wp_dequeue_style( $handle );
    }
}, 999 );
```

## Notes

Check your pages after enabling it: any Font Awesome icons in modules will disappear. Logged-in users keep the icons so the builder works.
