YouTube social icon not showing after 4.8.1 update

Hi,
@Gianluigi and @Mgyura thanks for your patience and links, so I first tested both of your sites on Windows 10 & Mac Big Sur with Chrome & Safari & Brave, etc.. and the YouTube icon showed just fine from the USA, but when I tested with a VPN in Italy @Gianluigi’s icon did not show with this error:
[Intervention] Slow network is detected. Fallback font will be used while loading:

So the error links to: Feature: Intervention: WebFonts use adaptive timeouts to take fallback fonts and at the bottom of the article the solution is:
Web site owners can opt-out from the intervention by setting CSS font-display to other than ‘auto’.
but I don’t believe we have set the display to “auto” specifically, I believe the browser is assuming this based on our css:

 #top .avia-font-entypo-fontello, body .avia-font-entypo-fontello, html body [data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello']:before{ font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; }

So I believe the slow network is the cause and the browser is looking for shortcuts, and is doing this, it’s not so much the YouTube icon than the waterfall of the DOM is just happening to pick the last loading one or such. So we could try setting the display to “block” so the browser will load the font:

 #top .avia-font-entypo-fontello, body .avia-font-entypo-fontello, html body [data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello']:before{ font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; display: block;}

which may work, but the site may also still have other issues due to the slow network.
I do note that @Mgyura is also in the USA, so I’m not sure how to recreate a test for you since we are both in the USA, but I do believe that the issue is also a slow network, so I believe the same css would work.
Please note that while this may help, I would recommend a webhost on a better network, sort of like that saying: Speed Matters 🙂 but then again we had to jump through a lot of hoops to see the error, so maybe very few people are getting the error, and even fewer are looking for that icon? Just a thought.

Best regards,
Mike

Hi,

@mgyura thanks for your feedback, I was not able to reproduce the error on your site, and I was only able to reproduce the error on @Gianluigi’s site when I used a VPN, as you can see from the screenshots and DevTools error link. So I’m assuming that you are experiencing the same issue, but this could be incorrect to assume because other factors could be browser-based “Ad-Blockers” or extensions, etc, but from your post that you tested on a friend’s Windows machine I doubt both machines are using the same extensions. Thus a slow network from your side, such as a wifi hotspot, phone signal or on your webhost side, CDN, etc makes sense to me.
All of the icons are shown with the font entypo-fontello.woff2 as shown in the screenshot above, not just the YouTube one, the reason the YouTube one is not showing is because the browser did this: [Intervention] Slow network is detected in the DOM waterfall.
But please note that the error and screenshots are from @Gianluigi’s site when I used a VPN, I was not able to reproduce the error on your site. Maybe it is a stretch to say that you are both experiencing the same error, but I wanted to try my best to find some sort of reason why this is occurring and this was the only this I could see the error on Windows 10 & Mac Big Sur
Please try testing your site like this: Go to Screenshot Guru and enter your url and view the results which show your YouTube icon:

Best regards,

Hi,

Testing it on Screenshot Guru, I can see the YouTube icon, but that doesn’t really tell me anything

What it says is that a completely different computer on a different network is showing your page loading correctly, this would be the same as if somebody wanted to know if your website was down or not, they would use downforeveryoneorjustme.com
I hear your frustration and I wish I had more to offer but Nikko and I both can not reproduce this, and a third-party test can not either. I will ask the rest of the team to take a look, perhaps I missed something.

Best regards,
Mike
