[Resolved] “Typography Module” (only) is totally or partially broken on 6 sites

[albabes]

Please ENLARGE to see details (very wide) https://snipboard.io/XZO1Nv.jpg

No other module is broken. For this post I DISABLED All plugins except Premium that enables the “Typography Module”, then I logged out of all 6 sites, then logged back in (if that matters).
Both GP theme and plugin are up date. All MODULES are turned off on 6 sites.
The 7th site in screenshot is hosted elsewhere, so youcan see the good typo module.

Hi there,

I don’t see anything broken in your screenshot.

The first 6 sites are using the new Dynamic Typography system introduced in GP3.1. Please read this article:
https://generatepress.com/generatepress-3-1-global-colors-dynamic-typography/

The last site is still using the old Typography module which can be switched to the new system in the customizer:

Leo, site 2 & 4 are broken, CLEARLY.
All there is is two BLUE BUTTONS? >> https://snipboard.io/1uCbyI.jpg

All there is is two BLUE BUTTONS?

Yes – in default/fresh install.

Can you watch the video here?

This new site here, doesnt have the option to switch?

It’s a new install with the newest version of GeneratePress?

Then it should be using the dynamic typography system by default.

The switch option is only available if it’s an existing site that was using the old typography system.

Leo, are you saying customers now have to SETUP the Typography system? This link https://snipboard.io/hUgPJn.jpg was clean install of the Theme and Plugin.

This link https://snipboard.io/hUgPJn.jpg was clean install of the Theme and Plugin.

I understand. And that means you should be seeing the Dynamic Typography system when you go to the Typography panel in the customizer:

Please go through the documentation here and watch the video here if you haven’t already:

[Leo]

You don’t have to.

If you don’t add anything in the font manager then your site will just use the default font (system stack) and font size we’ve set.

This is the same as the old system except that the new system has much better performance.

What a bummer, after years of it “just working”…..

[Leo]

Everything should still work as it used to be – just a different system 🙂
