    Hi,

    When the site loads, it starts with one font and then switches. This makes it look clunky. I am using 3 google fonts on the site added in the font options part of Uplift. How do I prevent this font switching effect?

    Thanks

    Caching with WP Super Cache doesnt solve the issue.

    this is still happening. It is also happening on all my colleagues machines and also totally external machines that have never accessed it before. Are you sure you are not getting a flick between standard font and google font on load up of each page? Look at the menu bar.

    I’ve attached screen shots comparing the two fonts during loading to show it is happening.

    Hi,

    I’m seeing that flick . Can you try to disable all plugins except SwiftFramework? so we can discard any plugin issue.

    Let us know the result.

    Hi,

    I turned off all the plugins and left the swift framework active. It didnt have the switching issue, but I think thats because it just loads super quick as there are no sliders active. As soon as I turn on rev slider, it adds a bit of lag to the loading and then you see the switch. I think the problem is in the loading of the page/fonts. Is there a way for you to quickly review the CSS and see if there is a problem there?

    Ive stopped using the google font and the issue has gone away. I am assuming there was an issue with the loading of the font quickly.

    Hi @Misec

    Unfortunately this is an issue that can occur with Google fonts as they are loaded from a 3rd party location, especially with sites that are quick (quicker than the font loading).

    Hi, is there a way to bring font loading to the beginning or pre-load the font? I would really like to use the google font?

    Hi,

    For me the fonts are loading quick, I currently do not experience a flickr during load.

    Is this still an issue for you? Have tried reducing the fonts/variants you are using?
