Cannot get it to work

  • I read your other messages with the same issue but they don’t display the resolution.

    My assumption is this plugin automatically adds the display swap automatically without any further input on my part but it’s just not working when I check my site in Lighthouse.

    I tried adding the code myself in the header section of the site but that had no effect either. My theme buries these details making them impossible to find as I would think it would be in the style.css sheet but it’s not. Otherwise, I’d do it myself.

    Any other suggestions?

    @kjam, is the plugin currently active?

    I see https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat:400%7CNeuton and https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Hind:regular%7CMontserrat:900%7CMontserrat:700%7CMontserrat:800 with display=swap.

    If you can email me the login details, I can check it in detail. [email protected]

    @kjam Thanks for providing the login details.

    Clearing the cache fixed the issues.

    However, 2 remaining fonts are Roboto (from Google Fonts) and customizr.woff2. Since customizr is not from Google fonts. And Roboto seems to be injected by some JS asynchronously and I couldn’t find it in the source code. This plugin can’t fix asynchronously injected fonts.

    Roboto is an old font from my previous theme. My caching plugin must be picking it up and I can deactivate that option in WP Fastest Cache. However, that never showed up in Lighthouse.

    I don’t see how clearing the cache fixed the issue. Seriously? I just checked it again in Lighthouse and then used Google Page Speed and the errors are identical. No Roboto but Hind, Montserrat and the Customizr woff2 show up in both.

    I spent hours yesterday trying to clear these issues and cleared my plugin cache, my CDN cache and browser cache a multitude of times. I even disabled my CDN to work on it and nothing removed those errors – which still show for up for me.

    I appreciate you taking the time to look at it. I’m going to have it professionally taken care of next week. I’ve got to get back to generating content.

    Thanks again!

    @kjam hey, when I checked it last time, it was fixed. But now its started to pop up again. Did something in between?

    Yes, I removed your plugin because even with the browser cache, the plugin cache and the CDN cache all cleared – it still wasn’t fixed. Roboto doesn’t show up at all for me but I know you must be seeing something I’m not because that’s an old font from my last theme.

    I checked Lighthouse from the browser and went to Google Page Speed right after you posted and the identical font errors keep showing up.

    I’m not angry or even disappointed – it’s the story of my life obsessing over the tiniest things to make Google happy even though I have a global reach and if people are on 3G still – that’s not really my customer. Doing all these itty bitty things for an audience that has no meaningful impact on the developed world (i.e., people on 4G or higher broadband) is just not worth my time.

    Keeping Google happy…is my only goal. Like I said, I’ll hire someone next week to fix the speed optimization issues. I’ll be happy to get it from an average of 87 to 91 as long as I see green. Earlier Pagespeed results even showed 97. Their stuff is all over the map. Thanks!
