    Hi,

    I've enabled local font loading (not from a Google server). However, it doesn't work everywhere.

    In this article, when I load the page in incognito mode, the header and menu fonts load only after moving the cursor:

    However, in this article, the same fonts load immediately:

    https://www.kierunekwlochy.pl/palermo-wlochy/

    I cleared the Lite Speed Cache, deleted the Cloduflare cache, and deleted critical CSS files. This didn't solve the problem. What else can I do?

    Hi,

    The issue is that your homepage content is still using fonts loaded from Google’s servers, which causes a delay until the user interacts with your site. Please review and edit the content to replace those fonts with your local fonts, then check again.

    Hi,

    Thank you. I used the "Empty UCSS" option in the black bar at the top, and that seems to have fixed the problem everywhere.

    Please tell me how to globally disable externally loaded Google fonts. I want fonts to be loaded from my server for better results in GT Metrix.

    Hi,

    Please go to Appearance → Customize → General → GDPR Policy and enable the “Remove all default Google Fonts – load default fonts from local hosting” option.

    Thanks, but this solution changes the font shape.

    I'd like Google fonts to load locally, not from Google servers (see the screenshot from the GT Metrix analysis). Fonts downloaded from a Google server increase the TBT score in GT Metrix.

    Can you recommend a plugin for this? One that works well with Soledad and Lite Speed Cache.

    I assume the Soledad theme itself doesn't have this feature?

    Hi,

    In this case, I recommend installing the Local Google Fonts plugin and following the documentation at this link: https://wordpress.org/plugins/local-google-fonts/
