Hi there,
i am using newspaper theme, (very happy about it) and i am using quite a bit of custom css and custom font too. unfortunately the css seems to take few seconds to load, http://khaosoden-new.unixdev.co.th/
i was wondering what can i do to avoid that, should i hardcode the css directly ? is it due to the custom font ?
thanks for letting me know
kind regards

Hello Todd Ruiz,

I suppose that you are referring to the appearance of a flash/time loading when you enter on your website, regarding on your loading font, right? Firstly is loaded a default font and then will appear your custom font, right? This behavior appears when you have additional customization through custom CSS code. Please notice that the CSS are working in cascade and the first time will take the code from style.css that is set it by default and then the theme will take the custom code that you have changed from Theme panel and practically this flash is generated by this cause. As a workaround, you have to check your style.css and try to add directly in this file your desired custom code. So, if your problem is still there, please try to revert the theme to the default settings, without any customizations and let us know how it goes. Also, you can try to make a new fresh install from scratch with the latest version of the theme and check the results. Also, please make sure every time you cleared caches. Noticed that the only files where you will have to edit are style.css. If you want to make deeper changes in this regard, you should check the td_config.php core files and from here you should change the default theme fonts which are Open Sans and Roboto with your desired one, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/YXUNUqxE.
If you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry!

Thanks for the message!
