 * Hi,
    this is a very nice plugin, in conjunction with Autoptimize it just works
   perfectly. But one thing:
 * I use Local by Flywheel to make some local development testing and for some reason
   the plugin does not work with that (windows, custom env).
    I looked into the 
   cache folder and the files got downloaded and the font.css created. I emptied
   the cache and done all exactly like on my live server where it just works.
 * Maybe you get a bit of spare time to test this out, as it is not overly important
   as long it works on the live server.
 * Again, thanks for this slick plugin.
    Best regards, Manuel

 * I always test my plugins locally (I use MAMP PRO) before testing them on my own
   staging environment. Everything works here and I can’t think of a reason why 
   it wouldn’t work on another environment. Have you checked the PHP or Apache/Nginx
   error logs? If you could post any relevant errors here, I could see if there’s
   something I could do 🙂

 * Thanks for the quick response.
 * Right now, I have no time to test this, maybe next week, then I come back to 
   you.
    As I think about it, it’s most probably the ngrok tunnel I had to use for
   testing on my smartphone, as I have installed all Google fonts as system fonts
   on my development pc.
