Preview link Hi, I have a problem that text are skipping on almost every webflow site I have made. Any one know why this is happening? See the header: [image]

Probably has to do with the web font not loading as fast as the page… but I rarely see it… It may only be affecting you… I don’t witness that, for me the title stays still and doesn’t blink when I change pages.

Typekit stylesheet loading slowly, causing the page to display the fallback font until Typekit has loaded. [image] From the screenshot above, you can see it takes 8s on a 3G network. This means you see the old font for 8s, then the text font changes after that. Even on a fast network, there is ab…

Thank you @samliew and @vincent I guess there is nothing I can do either? I find it strange that it loads the font everytime I load the page. So I guess the font is never downloaded in the cash?

Hi @krubens , one more thing to try, is to use a FOUT (A Flash of Unstyled Text) workaround to see if it helps. Paste this into the header of the site in the custom code tab and republish the site: <style> .wf-loading * { opacity: 0; } </style> Does this help?

Ahh…cool. So the unstyled text has a opacity of 0. Smart. I’ll might try it on another project! for now I just replaced the header with a png img :slight_smile:
