    Hello

    I am running the Sway theme and this includes a bunch of dependencies on redux. everything was fine until I selected the option auto update google fonts, since then the site is really slow. I can sell lots of calls to https://api.redux.io/gfonts that are failing. I have contacted my hosting provider who are not proving very helpful, I have tried removing the plugin and re-installing. Is there anyway to switch the option to auto update google fonts off, and just rely on the ones that it comes loaded with ?

    wp_remote_post() failed. Many advanced features may not function. Contact your hosting provider. Error: cURL error 7: Failed to connect to api.redux.io port 443 after 2041 ms: Connection refused

    This has come up before, and the answer is the same; this is not Redux code. This is a WordPress API that is failing due to a server configuration. I’m sorry your host is not being cooperative, but there isn’t anything we can do about it. No code change from us will fix a server issue. Redux should be gracefully handling such cases and defaulting to the installed Google Fonts list.

    As far as I am aware, there is no way to disable the Google font updating (there used to be, but now it’s automated). I can look into adding it as an option under the Redux screen where we keep the error reporting features.

    You can always add where appropriate the following option update_option('auto_update_redux_google_fonts', false );

    I don’t recommend modifying the Redux core, as those changes will be lost with updated. Either your theme or a child theme.

    Good luck!
