Descrizione

How could using fonts via Google’s service possibly run afoul of GDPR? The fact of the matter is that, when a font is requested by the user’s browser, their IP is logged by Google and used for analytics.
— Lifehacker

Leverage Browser Cache, Minimize DNS requests, reduce Cumulative Layout Shift and serve your Google Fonts in a 100% GDPR compliant way with OMGF!

OMGF is written with performance and user-friendliness in mind. It uses the Google Fonts Helper API to automatically cache the fonts your theme and plugins use to minimize DNS requests and speed up your WordPress website.

How Does It Work?

After installing the plugin, choose your Optimization Mode: Manual (default) or Automatic (only available in Pro).

When Manual is selected, you can simply configure OMGF to work in the way you want, and run its detection mechanism on an address of your choosing. Tweak the stylesheet(s) as you wish and these will be used throughout your site.

In Automatic (Pro) Mode, OMGF runs silently in the background and captures any requests made to fonts.googleapis.com or fonts.gstatic.com. When a webpage is first loaded, it reroutes these requests to its own Download API and copies the fonts over to your server. Then it generates a stylesheet for your fonts including SVG, EOT, TTF, WOFF and WOFF2 formats to guarantee maximum cross browser compatibility!

When the fonts are downloaded and the stylesheet is generated, it rewrites every URL (pointing to fonts.googleapis.com or fonts.gstatic.com) to the locally hosted stylesheet and/or font.

Please keep in mind that, although I try to make the configuration of this plugin as easy as possible, the concept of locally hosting a file or optimizing Google Fonts for Pagespeed Insights or GT Metrix has proven to be confusing for some people. If you’re not sure of what your doing, please consult a SEO expert or Webdeveloper to help you with the configuration of this plugin or hire me to do it for you.

Does exactly what it says, and does it without any issues. Totally underrated plugin!

spicerldn 19 Agosto 2021

Latest version locked me out of the admin area on a client site I'm building (hosting company confirmed the issue was with OMFG plugin). Kind of embarrassing when the client was with me to make some changes.

Roger 18 Agosto 2021

I was a bit surprised at how well this works! All I needed to do was save settings and it cached the fonts. Then I looked at which font styles I set in my theme, so that I knew which fonts to configure OMGF to preload, voilà! Thank you for this (it made things much easier).

sermalefico 13 Agosto 2021

It becomes paid, the free version has lost all the functionality that made it perfect. now it is a plugin that you can do without it

sebigbos 8 Agosto 2021

installed, used with default settings, done!

piotrk87 17 Luglio 2021

Great plugin, really does the job! The fonts are not render-blocking anymore!

Doc: Added link to Troubleshooting Guide to Help tab.

When preload is enabled for a font style, its associated unload checkbox is disabled and vice versa.

- Tested with Elementor. Works.

4.2.0 | The What-4.0-should’ve-been Edition | October 7th, 2020

No more spaces in filenames of downloaded fonts,
Added Optimize Fonts tab, which resembles the ‘Generate Stylesheet’ tab from v3, and features,
- Optimization Mode: Manual or Automatic,

- A complete overview of all detected fonts, grouped by stylesheet,
- Options to preload or unload for each font.
Move settings to more sensible places and re-grouped them in 3 groups:
- Optimize Fonts,
- Detection Settings,
- Advanced Settings.
OMGF will now throw a notice when a settings is changed which requires the cache to be flushed.
Several tweaks and fixes in OMGF’s Auto Detection mechanism and Fonts Download API.
Fixed issue where OMGF wouldn’t detect fonts in weight 400 (and 400 italic).
Major UX improvements,

- Cleaned up sidebar and added a clear overview of available documentation.
Several tweaks and optimizations in overall performance.

4.1.3

Fixed bug which would continuously show ‘No fonts founds’ notice in admin, among others.
Increased compatibility with caching plugins, which would cause static pages to be served and block OMGF from pointing requests to its Download API.
Added some notices (which disappear ;-)) for manual optimization process in admin area, making it clear when optimization is finished.

4.1.2

Fixed syntax error (unexpected ‘)’ on line 147).

4.1.1

Use transients instead of options.
Fixed some minor notices and warnings.

4.1.0 | October 1st, 2020

- Start Optimization
Minor tweaks and optimizations.

4.0.2

Fixed bug where OMGF would trigger too late for the requests to fonts.googleapis.com to be captured.

4.0.1

The tiniest bugfix ever: one space too much in a str_replace() caused Font Names with spaces (e.g. Roboto Condensed, or Open Sans) to not be captured correctly.

4.0.0 | September 30th, 2020

OMGF now runs fully automatic to replace/remove Google Fonts from your pages using OMGF’s new Download API. No initial configuration required!
- This means that if you use different fonts on different pages, all of them will be cached and served locally.
HUGE performance increase in OMGF’s automatic replacing/removing methods.
Major overhaul of Settings Page:
- Removed Extensions Tab
- Some settings were moved to a new tab: Basic Settings.
- Improved Welcome and Documentation tab.
- Clarified option descriptions.
Removed ‘Generate Stylesheet’ tab, which’ll be released in a separate add-on plugin soon.
Removed ‘Use Web Font Loader?’ option, because it causes Cumulative Layout Shift and will not work with OMGF’s new Auto Replace feature.

Font Preloading is temporarily removed and will be re-introduced (in a different form, along with new features) in a later release.
