DhivehiFonts Add-on: Fix display of Dhivehi in all websites

In the previous post Dhivehi Fonts for Firefox Android, I introduced a simple add-on for Firefox Android and Desktop which could fix the display of Dhivehi on some Maldivian websites. However, one user asked if it could be fixed for other websites such as Facebook.

So here is my answer to that question. The next version of DhivehiFonts add-on which will allow you to view Dhivehi on Firefox for Android on any website including Google and Facebook in-sha-Allah.

Download/Install DhivehiFonts add-on (version 1.1)

As an added bonus, you can install this add-on on Firefox Desktop and it will in-sha-Allah fix your MV Boli issues on Firefox for Windows.

Dhivehi Fonts for Firefox Android

This a simple add-on to fix the display of most Dhivehi websites in Firefox for Android without having to root to install alternate system fonts.
Most websites like haveeru.com.mv/dhivehi and sun.mv use the @font-face CSS tag and display just fine on Firefox for Android and the latest versions of the default Android browser. However, not all Dhivehi websites use this and as such the Dhivehi text is not rendered at all for such sites. This add-on attempts to fix the rendering of such sites on Firefox for Android. For example:
