any idea how to locally install Google Fonts and delete all connections to Google concerning fonts? GDPR doesn’t like typography ;-)
Thanks,
Andreas

You could download the files from Google and add them locally somewhere on your site, then you can include them in your child theme via “@font-face”. To download them check your HTML Code (CTRL+U), then find google font occurrences, for example something like this:

http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans%3A400%2C600%7CMontserrat%3A300%2C400%2C500%2C600&ver=1.0.0

When you open this you will see how the fonts are included from Google’s repo! :)

And ow to remove Google fonts completely from the theme? Installed the fonts locally but network analysis still shows traffic to fonts.gstatic.com…

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'boc_add_default_fonts' );
