 * Hi,
 * I’m working on a particularly image-heavy client site and am looking at ways 
   of speeding it up. Out of all the caching plugins I’ve tried yours seems to show
   the best improvement, however there are a couple of issues:
 * 1. Google fonts are not loading
    2. Certain styling breaks, particularly on mobile(
   when minify CSS is enabled).
 * Let me know if there is any more information I can provide. I’ve reverted back
   to an alternative plugin for the moment, but I’d prefer to use yours if possible.
 * Thanks!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcss-and-font-issues%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * We are working on significantly improved CSS parser and optimizer, so there are
   many related issues will be fixed in the next release (we are hope to release
   it at the end of this week, or on the next week in the worst case).
 * As to Google fonts, do you see this issue in all browsers, or in certain one(
   s) only?

 * I’ve had the same problem re loading Google fonts using Chrome (I haven’t tested
   other browsers.).

 * Also, when I activate CSS minifying, my site’s pages display unstyled content
   for about one second before CSS styling takes effect. Again, I used only Chrome
   for my tests.
 * The problem largely disappears when I deactivate the WooCommerce plug-in.
 * Aside from these two issues, I love your plug-in.

 * Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback Mike! We’re about to release the new update
   and hope that will solve most of these issues.

 * Despite your recent updates to version 0.9.15, I still have the same problems
   I described 2 weeks ago in the above comments. Any suggestions?
 * Thanks in advance for your help!

 * I’ve just installed the latest Firefox browser. Just like Chrome, PageSpeed Ninja
   still does not pull Google fonts.

 * New webfonts loader is our aim for the next release (or one of the next releases).

 * I just ran some more tests using Windows 10, Chrome and Firefox, with the same
   result, even after removing all references to Google fonts from my style.css 
   file and my header file. Specifically,
 * 1. After removing all references to Google Fonts, my site will load the fallback
   default font (Proxima Nova) after about one second. But during the first second,
   my site loads completely unstyled content.
 * 2. The Google Raleway font will not load even after I add back the Google font
   info to my header and stylesheet. Instead, I get the same unstyled content that
   I described in #1 above.
 * I hope that you’ll be able to fix the problems soon. Aside from these problems,
   I love your plug-in.

 * I latest releases of PageSpeed Ninja we made some fixes to Google Fonts loading,
   so that it should work better (i.e. more stable) and faster. You can choose between
   FOIT (flash of invisible text, default behavior in browsers) and FOUT (flash 
   of unstyled text).
 * As to unstyled content, it may be related to above-the-fold CSS. In some cases
   above-the-fold CSS is generated incorrectly, or the page requires some javascript
   execution before rendering. In such cases “Above-the-fold CSS” feature should
   be disabled (see “Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold
   content” section in the “Advanced” settings tab).

 * I’ve found a huge problem with my site’s internal posts.
 * My **homepage** speed using PageSpeedNinja is 99 for mobile and 99 for desktop.
   This is confirmed by using Google’s Page Speed Insights (100 for mobile and 99
   for desktop). That’s fantastic!
 * However, when I test an internal post, my results are dramatically different (
   PageSpeedNinja is 78 for mobile and 92 for desktop) and (Google’s Page Speed 
   Insights is 57 for mobile and 85 for desktop).
 * What’s happening?
 * Thanks in advance for your help!

 * Another PageSpeed Ninja user (Jakub Zieliński) stated on Facebook, “Hey, I really
   love PageSpeed Ninja, but I don’t understand one thing. I applied all settings.
   My homepage pagespeed is now 91 (before it was 55). When I try to test post pages,
   pagespeed is still about 50-60. Can somebody help me?.”
