Hello, I am new to discourse and I would like to know how to hide “sources” when inspecting my website just like in this forum.

 ![discourse inspect](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/d/a/dad794c5268493776cb6ba3593f3cd0900631697.png) [meta.discourse.org](http://meta.discourse.org)

 ![My inspect](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/f/d/fd7c7f01f9784f4dc859374b28ec0f13cd1d7bcd.png) ![myinspect2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/7/9/79b70795b2ce3651013169cfa19cd20797c58a46.png) My website .

Thank you.

They’re not “hidden” here on meta. Meta uses a CDN so the files are listed in another directory:

Thank you. So there is no way to hide them.

Correct, there is no way to hide them. Best case is obfuscation, which doesn’t help much.
