Google Fonts and W3C Validator error

Hi there,

I'm not sure if it will work, as Google specifically suggests using the pipe in their example code they supply you. I assume they do this for a reason.

You can convert them using this function:

add_filter( 'generate_typography_google_fonts','tu_convert_font_pipes', 100 );
function tu_convert_font_pipes( $google_fonts ) {
	return str_replace( '|', '%7C', $google_fonts );
}

Hi,

thank you again!It looks like it works perfectly. If your IP is the same you can check it out and let me know if everything is OK :)

Looks good! :)

It works only partially for me. Initially I had two errors. After I applied the snippet mentioned above by Tom I have only one error:

Error: Bad value for attribute href on element link: Illegal character in query: | is not allowed.
From line 1, column 7486; to line 1, column 7842
-scale=1"><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:100,100i…,300,300italic,400,400italic,500,500italic,600,600italic,700,700italic,800,800italic,900,900italic"><link

How to get rid of this one?

Looks like that might be coming from another source like a plugin maybe.

Yes that's true, it was coming from Elementor's "Disable Global Fonts" checkbox. It should be checked. Thanks.

No problem :)
