Howdy,
There’s a noticeable lag in font load with the adobe type kit plugin. While I got a piece of code from Ismael that fixed the issue–it’s back.
I double checked that nothing got deleted, but it’s complete and the problem still remains.
.helvetica-websave {
font-family: Ingra, “HelveticaNeue”, “Helvetica Neue”, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif !important;
}Any ideas?
March 17, 2017 at 3:07 pm #762520We recently encountered the same problem. We found the solution in deactivating asynchronous font loading. Here’s Adobe’s Blog Post about that: https://blog.typekit.com/2015/08/04/new-embed-code-for-asynchronous-font-loading/
If you deactive this in your script via changing the true value to false it will work like a charm.
<script src=”https://use.typekit.net/yournumber”></script>
<script>try{Typekit.load({ async: false });}catch(e){}</script>Either way I’d love to see Kriesi implementing an offical way to add TykeKit Fonts to the Theme Settings.

Thank you for using Enfold.
@raisonbrands: Have you optimize the site? If not, you might want to follow the suggestion in this thread. It’s going to increase the page speed insight test score by around 40 and it might fix the font loading issue if you manage to eliminate render-blocking resources.
@b3plus: Thanks for the info.Regards,
IsmaelMarch 21, 2017 at 6:12 pm #764292b3plus, thank you very much, I’ll give that a shot! And yeah, that would be great if Enfold made that a little bit easier or got a designer to pick out a more robust set of native fonts so you can get a close-enough match for a lot of choices.
Ismael, that is great for the future. I’ve struggled in the past to get Enfold site to score well on Google Page Speed. Much appreciated. Unfortunately all that stuff is above and beyond the amount of time I can put into this particular site. On top of that, we’re using Pantheon, which is great, but as I’ve found does introduce some performance variables with Enfold that we’re encountering as we go (for example, the icon loader does not work with Pantheon), so it’s possible that after all that, it could just be a Pantheon thing.
Thanks all!

Unfortunately all that stuff is above and beyond the amount of time I can put into this particular site.
I’ve implemented the suggestions in the previous thread and it took me less than 15 minutes. The page speed insight score increase by 40 points or more. I’m sure it’s worth it. :)
Best regards,
IsmaelMarch 23, 2017 at 7:12 pm #765673Yeah Ismael,
Ha, that took you 15 minutes, me, a few hours if I’m lucky. Gotta crawl before you can run.
b3Plus, thanks for the tip, unfortunately the plugin refuses to accept the “false” value, just switches it back to true.
Back to the drawing board.
March 23, 2017 at 7:27 pm #765683Update for other users,
There’s an option to “optimize” the Typkekit embed code.
Just go to Kit Settings and check the “optimize performance” box. I hesitate to say so because I thought I’d already sorted the problem out, but after a 5 minute propagation period it seems to be working very well!
