    This update is just giving me more reasons to join GeneratePress Premium community, especially the page header, I think I would love it.

    Thank you Tom.

    1. Tom

      Awesome! Thank you! 🙂

    Hi Tom,

    Will the update automatically convert the existing Page Headers or does it require any manual work?

    1. Tom

      Your existing page headers will remain as they are – no manual work needed.

  4. Marcelo.uy

    Like allways Tom take note of all the issues and make a awesome job. Thank you!

    1. Tom

      Thank you! 🙂

    Very sweet Tom. How about making it available for CPTs?

    1. Tom

      Global Locations should already be available to all public CPTs 🙂

  6. Burt

    My bad Tom. You are right. Oh darn, another headache simplified and solved …

  7. Rob

    Awesome work, Tom!

    On one hand I love that the existing page headers aren’t touched after the upgrade — but, what if we want to convert pages over to the new format…How would we do that? Are we stuck with the “old” way for existing pages and then must use the “new” way on new pages that are added? I don’t see a page header dropdown on my existing pages.

    1. Tom

      You can simply create a new Page Header for that page, then remove the settings from the on-page meta box. Once it senses that there’s no settings in the meta box, it will display the dropdown instead.

      Glad you like it!

    Please add to the global locations the support of BuddyPress pages.

    1. Tom

      Since they’re using custom post types, they should technically already be supported.

      1. Oleg

        Tom, BuddyPress does not use custom post type. Therefore I ask

        1. Tom

          Ah, Page Headers are currently only able to work in custom post types. I might explore other areas in the future.

          1. Oleg

            Thank you, we will wait. Maybe add an option: one header for total site?

    These are some pretty awesome updates. I cant see why I would ever need to use any other theme again. Nice job, well done Tom!

    1. Tom

      Thank you! Glad you like it 🙂

    Very much a newbie here. Got GeneratePress, then decided to purchase the Premium, and I cannot get it to install. After I upload zip, then hit install, it sends me to my website to a message that says “Oops, that cannot be found.” I did the steps in the video, but not sure where that problem lies. I haven’t been able to find anyone else with the same problem– any ideas? Thanks.

    1. Tom

      Hmm, that’s a new one. It might be worth contacting your hosting company to make sure there’s nothing server related going on. Just explain that you’re unable to upload a plugin .zip file without receiving that error message. Seems like a permalink issue.

      Let me know 🙂

  11. Tina

    Thanks, Tom! I wasn’t sure which direction to go, and my hosting company was able to help. Looking forward to working with my new gp premium!

    1. Tom

      Awesome! 🙂

    Just a heads up:

    In migration.php

    $id = strtolower( str_replace( ‘ ‘, ‘_’, $generate_settings[ $setting ] ) );

    if ( array_key_exists( $id, $select_fonts ) || in_array( $id, generate_typography_default_fonts() ) ) {
    continue;
    }

    I think you want:

    $id = strtolower( str_replace( ‘ ‘, ‘_’, $generate_settings[ $setting ] ) );

    if ( array_key_exists( $id, $select_fonts ) || in_array( $generate_settings[ $setting ], generate_typography_default_fonts() ) ) {
    continue;
    }

    Love the update by the way!

    1. Tom

      Right you are! Thanks for the heads up 🙂
