[Resolved] Google Font Droid Arabic Kufi

[abd-ell-fattah]

I’m currently working on the release.

GeneratePress 3.1.0-alpha.1
and
GP Premium 2.1.0-alpha.1

I am already using dynamic Typography to add Fonts Google

I have a problem:

I can’t add.
Google Font Droid Arabic Kufi

For the record:

In the old Typography style

The required line has been added by code

add_filter( 'generate_typography_default_fonts','tu_add_system_fonts' );
function tu_add_system_fonts( $fonts ) {
    $fonts[] = 'Droid Arabic Kufi';
    return $fonts;
}

The problem now is that it doesn’t appear in Google fonts when you search for it in the new dynamic Typography system.

It’s been more than 24 hours and there’s no response!!!
It’s weird.

Where’s the support?

Hi Mahmoud,

Sorry for the late reply – this somehow slipped under our radar.

I just searched Droid Arabic Kufi in Google font but there isn’t such font:
https://fonts.google.com/
https://fonts.google.com/?query=Droid+Arabic+Kufi

Am I missing something here?

[abd-ell-fattah]

It is an Arabic Fonts that is widely used in the Middle East.

That’s it:

https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Kufi+Arabic?query=Kufi

https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Naskh+Arabic?query=Kufi

I want to add these two Fonts.

[abd-ell-fattah]

Will I wait another day until I find an answer to my question of support?..!

Where is the support gentlemen?

There’s something weird here.

Hi there,

Sorry for the wait here.

The list of Google fonts is taken directly from their own API. It seems like they’re not including this specific font within the API for some reason.

Right now the system (still in alpha) won’t allow you to tell it you’re using a Google font if you manually type in the font name and it doesn’t exist in the list they provide. We may need to re-think this and allow that toggle to work even if a font isn’t in the list.

We’ll work on this and try to get it sorted in alpha.2: https://github.com/tomusborne/generatepress/issues/270

Thanks for testing 3.1! 🙂

[abd-ell-fattah]

Thank you, dear Tom.

It’s really very important.

A lot of Arab society uses this font.

Google even adopts it we have in the Middle East for Google search engine.
(https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Naskh+Arabic?query=Kufi).

I think I’ll wait for alpha.2.

All thanks.

[Leo]

Alpha 2 is released so hopefully this issue is resolved.

Let us know 🙂

[abd-ell-fattah]

The problem has been completely resolved.
In the new version Alpha 2.
I’m so happy.
Great thanks Tom.
Thank you, Leo.

I love GeneratePress

I would like to take into account the improvement of search engines and the speed of archiving articles and pages in google search engine.

Glad to hear 🙂

Thanks for reporting the issue!
