Disable Google Fonts

Description

Plugin homepage | Plugin author | Donate

This plugin stops loading of fonts from Google Fonts used by WordPress core, Gutenberg plugin, bundled themes (Twenty Twelve, Twenty Thirteen, Twenty Fourteen, Twenty Fifteen, Twenty Sixteen, Twenty Seventeen), and most other themes. If theme or plugin (whose name is not listed here) uses fonts from Google Fonts, those fonts still might be loaded if that theme or plugin loads fonts from Google in a way that is incompatible with this plugin.

Reasons for not using Google Fonts might be privacy and security, local development or production, blocking of Google’s servers, characters not supported by font, performance.

Disable Google Fonts is a very lightweight, it has no settings, just activate it and it works immediately.

And it’s on GitHub.

Installation

  1. Upload disable-google-fonts folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. WordPress ‘Qoşmalar’ menyusundan qoşmanı aktivləşdir

I tested this with Wordpress 5.2.2 and the theme “Twenty Thirteen” and it works perfectly. Before the plugin was activated: 2 third party requests according to Webbkoll tester. After the plugin was activated: 0 third party requests. Thank you for this great plugin.

Good plugin to get rid of the privacy hole that is Google Fonts. I still can’t understand why it was let in the Wordpress Core …I should not need a plugin for that -_-

Thanks to this plugin my web site no longer subjects readers to Google’s tracking and removes a possible, if unlikely, security weakness. Thanks Milan!
