website speed and fonts
8 replies · Started by Eric on August 14, 2018
Hi everybody,
I again have a Website speed, and am trying to fix it.
why is it that :
fontawesome-webfont.woff2
generatepress.woff2
glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff2
generatepress.ttf
generatepress.woff
glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf
fontawesome-webfont.ttf
glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff
fontawesome-webfont.woff
are so long to load (11 sec each)
Do I really need all of them?
Thanks for your help,
Veronique
NB I don't have the latest version of the theme, can't upgrade it.
Hi there,
Only a few of them are from GP which you will need:

Your site loads very quick for me.
I assume the other are loaded by other plugins.
Let me know if this helps :)
indeed, not all these fonts are from GP. My mistake !!!
though, referring to pingdom results these two GP are missing :
fontawesome-webfont.woff2 is missing

fontawesome-webfont.woff missing

maybe i should re-upload these fonts. (i'm on vacation actually, so i won't be able to do it immediately.
(yes, ping results are sometimes better; never good; my bad results aren't caused by these missing fonts, i'm aware; yesterday i had to disconnect jetpack and it was way better, all of sudden; though, i would like to know how come all of theses fonts are missing...)
actually, they aren't really missing, it says :
Error Connection error, no response from the server
(The request got a 4XX, 5XX response or couldn’t be loaded)
anyway, thanks for your time and kind attention.
GP no longer uses FontAwesome.
Can you make sure you are using the latest version for the theme (2.1.3) and premium plugin (1.7)?
How strange. Because I am indeed using the latest version for the theme (2.1.3) and premium plugin (1.7).
Can you test without WP Rockets?
Maybe some series caching going on. It does say cache in the file path.
yes. that's what i was about to try!!
well, this is amazing, load tme, without the cache plugin, WP Rocket (I paid for it during one year) : 2.71 sec !! and no more problems with the fonts.
thanks Leo for your patience, it really helped me solving this issue (yesterday morning, the results were 47 sec, which was worrying ; but there were other issues with the server).
I'm qui te happy now.
And I'll write a mail to WP-Rocket to explain this.
Thanks again.
No problem :)
