    Hi, Google Pagespeed tells me, that it needs 4 seconds to load entypo-fontello.woff!
    (Google text in german: Empfehlung: Wichtige Anforderungen vorab laden. Geschätzte Einsparung:3,96 s
    Mit <link rel=preload> können Sie das Abrufen von Ressourcen priorisieren, die aktuell später beim Seitenaufbau angefordert werden.)

    https://www.thiersch.com/eventfotograf-hamburg/wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-template-builder/assets/fonts/entypo-fontello.woff
    What is this file good for? (Do I need it?) Why does it load much longer than the other parts of the website – according to Pagespeed? (Just the link in the browser is very fast!)

    Pagespeed also says, I could save 1 second with using “font-display” to ensure the text is visible while loading webfonts.
    (Google text in german: Darauf achten, dass der Text während der Webfont-Ladevorgänge sichtbar bleibt. Sie können Gebrauch von der CSS-Funktion “font-display” machen, um sicherzugehen, dass der Text für Nutzer sichtbar ist, während Webfonts geladen werden.)

    How do I use “font-display”? And again: do I need entypo-fontello.woff??? I’m not using Google Fonts, I use Helvetica for all texts.

    Cheers and thanks in andvance!

    Hey Kai,

    entypo-fontello.woff Is the icons font, you cannot really substitute with the fallback with the font-display.

    Hi Victoria,

    thanks for your answer. Unfortenately I don’t understand it completely.

    Okay … it’s the Icon-Font …
    If I don’t use Icons, can I somehow “delete/disable” the link to the file?

    “you cannot really substitute with the fallback with the font-display”: I just don’t understand. Sorry!

    If you check my Website: https://www.thiersch.com/eventfotograf-hamburg/
    here:https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/
    you will see at “Diagnostics” that there is a big problem with entypo-fontello.woff
    How can I solve this?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi cap10kai,

    The rule for font-display works in such a way that the browser will show the font from the system until the font is loaded from the server, and so not many users have the icon font on their systems and so this font cannot be substituted.

    Are you not using icons at all on your website?

    Best regards,
    Victoria

    Hi Victoria,
    I’m using three Icons on my website. Is it better for the performance if I don’t use them? The Icons are not that important for me.
    I don’t understand: is Enfold using the function “font-display”? It does not look like, because Google suggest to use it: “Sie können Gebrauch von der CSS-Funktion “font-display” machen, um sicherzugehen, dass der Text für Nutzer sichtbar ist, während Webfonts geladen werden.”
    Cheers, Kai

    Hi! No, I can’t! I ask YOU!
    As I told you above: I don’t understand that point, but Google Pagespeed tells me I’m not using it.
    Have you checked my site in Pagespeed? There you see my problem … (very long loading time for entypo-fontello.woff)
    So please explain it to me. Thank you!

    Hi,

    We are loading the fonts according to the way we fill it will increase the loading section.
    We can discuss it with our developers as an option.

    Best regards,

    Sorry, but I think all of us are no native-english-speakers. I just don’t understand your first sentence. I will start a new thread in german.
    Thank you!
