### Advanced

1. **Switch Editor Loader Method**: In cases of [server configuration conflicts](https://elementor.com/help/server-configuration-conflicts/), enable this option\*
2. **Enable Unfiltered File Uploads**: Enable or disable the ability to upload SVG, JSON, and other unfiltered files. _Please note! Allowing uploads of any files (SVG and JSON included) is a potential security risk. Elementor will try to sanitize the unfiltered files, removing potential malicious code and scripts, however, we recommend you only enable this feature if you understand the security risks involved._
3. **Google Fonts**: Switch to Disable in order to prevent loading Google fonts.
4. **Google Fonts Load**: Define how your site will load Google fonts.
5. **Load Font Awesome 4 Support:** Choose _Yes or No_. Font Awesome 4 support script (shim.js) is a script that makes sure all previously selected Font Awesome 4 icons are displayed correctly while using Font Awesome 5 library.
6. **Generator Tag**: Allows you to analyze webpages using the Generator tag meta element.

\* Switch Editor Loader Method is useful in solving the “err\_content\_decoding\_failed” and err\_empty\_response” issues that sometimes occur. Enabling this option helps users running sites on servers with low resources which have difficulty reading long JSON code. When enabled, the tool splits the lines so that these servers can read the JSON code without issues. Switching to this method won’t negatively affect performance. Instead, it will likely improve performance. This tool can also be useful sometimes in solving the white screen of death.

### Performance

1. **CSS Print Method**: Choose if your CSS will be included as an independent stylesheet (recommended) or on each page.
2. **Optimized Image Loading**: Improve performance by applying fetchpriority=”high” on LCP image and loading=”lazy” on images below the fold.
3. **Optimized Gutenberg Loading**: Decrease page loading times by ignoring unused Gutenberg block editor scripts and styles.
