I am having a huge problem with font load response times, as fonts are not being hosted locally. I spoke to my support staff at WPMU Dev and they directed me to contact the theme developer to get the fonts to be hosted locally. The message I am receiving is pasted below.
Ensure text remains visible during webfont load 0
Overview When you use web fonts on your website, browsers have to download them before any text can be displayed. Most browsers have a maximum timeout, after which a web font will be replaced with a fallback font. It's recommended to use a font-display descriptor in your @font-face rule to control how text renders when web font download delays occur.
Status Your page is not using font-display rule when loading the following web fonts.
@font-face{ font-family: 'myWebFont'; font-display: swap; src: url('myfont.woff2') format('woff2'); } The font-display supports "auto | block | swap | fallback | optional" values. Try different values to achieve the desired result. You can read about the different values here.
Additional notes It's not possible to change the @font-face CSS rule for web fonts hosted with most external services. You should confirm if there is a way to specify the font-display rule with your font hosting service.
I'm not really sure what to do here, but it has slowed my site to a snail. They also gave me a resource page.
We will add more this feature in the next update version of Soledad. Please wait for it.
We're working on the next update version of SoledadI don't know exactly time for release this new version, but we will try to release the update in this month.

When you use web fonts on your website, browsers have to download them before any text can be displayed.

Status
Your page is not using font-display rule when loading the following web fonts.
Font URL Savings

How to fix
To add the font-display property for Google Fonts, you can pass the desired value in the query string display parameter as shown in the example below:
https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto&display=swap
For fonts hosted locally, add the font-display property to the @font-face CSS rule as shown below:
@font-face{
font-family: 'myWebFont';
font-display: swap;
src: url('myfont.woff2') format('woff2');
}
The font-display supports "auto | block | swap | fallback | optional" values. Try different values to achieve the desired result. You can read about the different values here.

Thank you,

P.S. I have two licenses for this theme for two sites running on the same set up, so I am assuming one fix would handle both of them?
