[Resolved] What are these SVG loads?

[Ian]

Chrome inspect is showing many of these image urls being loaded. Any idea what these could be?

Here is an example: Request URL: data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20700%20567%22%3E%3C/svg%3E

I see almost 15-20 of these. What is causing these to be loaded? Thoughts?

Hi Ian,

Are you referring to these?

If so they are added from WordPress on V5.9 I believe.

If that’s not what you are referring to then try disabling all plugins except GP Premium to test.

Hi Leo,

I believe those are it. When loaded inside Chrome Inspect, they show up under “Images”. I see all of these dropped in between the Admin Bar and inside-header grid-container. On one site that had had a warning for “Content Security Policy”, it flagged all of these SVGs as not loadable. The CSP issue is unrelated but that lead me to take a deeper look. So WordPress is adding these in? For what use do you know?

I believe it’s some sort of SVG font.

Worth a Google search if you want to know more.
