Typography Stylist

Regjistër ndryshimesh

2.3.0

• NEW: Paragraph Styles are built in. Save the current typography as a named style and apply it anywhere. Styled text renders through a shared CSS class, so “Update Style” changes every use at once. Fit-to-width blocks save as styles too.
• NEW: a visual style browser. “Browse styles…” in the inline editor (and an optional block toolbar button) shows every style rendered in its own typeface, with your selected words as the sample. Search, group by font family, size mode or recently used, and move through the list with the keyboard.
• NEW: optional Glyphs and Paragraph Styles buttons in the block toolbar, and a choice of what Enter does in a Typography Stylist block. All three settings are in Options. The toolbar buttons are off by default, and Enter keeps its line-break behavior until you change it.
• Improved: the settings page updates in place. Uploading, adding, editing, deleting and registering fonts, and every settings form, no longer reload the page. Buttons keep keyboard focus while a request runs.
• Improved: the font menus are searchable. Type any part of a font name to narrow the list, in the sidebar, the Quick Feature Toggles and the inline editor.
• Improved: screen-reader and keyboard use of the editor panels. Dialog names are read first, every control is named, the panels have fewer Tab stops, focus stays inside an open panel, and contrast meets WCAG AA.
• Fixed: styled text kept the wrong weight or font. A feature toggle no longer makes a bold heading light; text styled only by the theme keeps its weight; a Font Library font that is installed but not activated now prints its @font-face; a font installed in the Library appears in the pickers on the next editor load.
• Fixed: conversion, nesting and sizing in the editors. “Convert to Typography Stylist Block” keeps the selection’s styling on the selection only; the block reports when styling cannot nest deeper; the inline editor warns when responsive sizes are out of order; “Responsive (fluid)” applies at once in the Quick Feature Toggles.
• Fixed: the Glyphs Panel swapped or duplicated the wrong glyph, opened on the wrong font for theme-styled text, and refused U+XXXX input.
• Fixed: paragraph styles dropped italic, went stale after in-session saves, lost to theme heading CSS, and did not load fonts for class-only content.
• Full details are in changelog.txt.

2.2.3

• NEW: Relative size and vertical shift for selected text in Fit-to-width blocks. Select part of a fitted line — a single glyph like the ampersand in “April & Andy” — and scale it down relative to the line’s fitted size or nudge it up and down. Because the adjustments are relative, the line still fills the block width exactly at every screen size, and the frontend stays zero-JavaScript. The two new sliders appear in the Quick Feature Toggles when the block uses Fit to width sizing.
• Full details are in changelog.txt.

2.2.2

• NEW: Fit-to-width sizing. A third font-size mode on the Typography Stylist block: each line is sized so its text spans the full block width — the classic wedding-invitation/poster look where a short line renders huge and a long line smaller, all flush to the same width. Editing is fully WYSIWYG: every line renders at its true fitted size while you type and style selections. Lines are measured with their real fonts, features, and letter spacing; the frontend stays zero-JavaScript (CSS container queries), with an optional maximum-size cap and a responsive fallback for older browsers. Existing blocks are untouched.
• Fixed: variable-font axis sliders in the Quick Feature Toggles now change only the selected text instead of restyling the whole block (the sidebar sliders intentionally remain block-level), and an axis change no longer leaks into other Typography Stylist blocks on the page. The sliders also now read their starting values from your selection correctly in the iframed editor.
• Fixed: fonts registered in the WP Font Library keep their webfont on the frontend. Registered-but-unactivated fonts previously fell back to a local or system font on the frontend while the editor looked correct; the plugin now prints its own @font-face whenever WordPress won’t.
• Full details are in changelog.txt.

2.2.1

• Fixed: fonts uploaded together in one ZIP no longer share each other’s variable-font axes. Axis detection scanned the whole kit directory, so every family in a multi-font ZIP inherited the axes of whichever file parsed first — Fraunces lost its optical size, SOFT, and WONK sliders when uploaded alongside a weight-only font, and non-variable fonts in the same ZIP gained a phantom weight slider. Detection is now scoped to each family’s own font files. Fonts uploaded on their own were never affected.
• Improved: “Detect Axes from Font File” repairs fonts in place. Use it on any font whose axes were mis-detected before this fix. It now falls back to reading the font on the server when the browser can’t, so it works either way. It also states plainly that it replaces every axis row and discards hand-set values, and asks for confirmation before overwriting axes you have already defined — nothing is stored until you save.
• Changed: variable-font axis sliders now sit directly beneath the weight control in the inline editor and Quick Feature Toggles, matching the block sidebar.
• Full details are in changelog.txt.

2.2.0

• NEW: Font Style (visual italic) controls on all three editing surfaces — block-level, Quick Feature Toggles, and the inline editor. Deliberately style-only: it selects the font’s italic face without adding emphasis semantics; the editor’s own Italic button remains the way to emphasize text for screen readers.
• Italic-aware previews and Glyphs Panel — feature previews render with the italic face when the selection is italic, and the Glyphs Panel now loads and displays the face variant actually rendering at your selection (no toggle; the selection decides). Italic-only glyph sets like EB Garamond’s swash italic capitals are finally browsable.
• Glyphs Panel opens to your selection — a selected letter pre-fills the alternates view; short combinations (“Th”) show their exact ligature alternates.
• A large editor-robustness batch: Quick Feature Toggle changes always land on the selected text; mixed-selection edits change only the setting you touched; converting a styled heading to a Typography Stylist block preserves every span; glyph alternates survive font and feature changes; variable-font axis sliders no longer alter untouched axes (and the QFT weight slider works); font changes clear stale axis values; multi-span font changes actually take effect; quote-bearing attribute values survive span splits; the span-nesting limit is enforced everywhere.
• Full details for every fix are in changelog.txt.

2.1.2

• Automatic font-weight detection — newly added fonts (uploaded kits, Adobe Fonts, and Library fonts adopted in the editor) get their “Available Font Weights” pre-set to only the weights they actually ship, instead of all nine being enabled by default. A one-click “Auto-detect weights for existing fonts” button on the Custom Fonts tab covers fonts added before this release. Detection never narrows unless it is confident, and the checkboxes stay fully editable.
• Fixed: variable fonts uploaded as font-only ZIPs now glyph-browse correctly in the Glyphs Panel (the generated format('truetype-variations') hint was not recognized by the panel’s file picker).

2.1.1

• Packaging: re-release of the 2.1.0 feature set under a fresh version number. The 2.1.0 tag’s downloadable ZIP was cached against stale contents and never delivered the new files (Variable Fonts core integration, font metadata/sources modules, WordPress Font Library integration); 2.1.1 ships them correctly. See the 2.1.0 entry below for the full list of changes included in this release.

2.1.0

• WordPress Font Library integration (WP 6.5+) — register uploaded fonts into the Font Library, per font or in bulk (opt-in and fully reversible), and use Library fonts straight from the editor font pickers. Existing content keeps rendering no matter what.
• Variable font support — automatic axis detection on upload, a “Detect Axes from Font File” button, per-font axis configuration, and axis sliders in both editors.
• Font-only ZIP uploads — kits containing just font files (e.g. a Google Fonts download) are now accepted; the @font-face stylesheet is generated automatically from the fonts’ metadata.
• New typost_force_enqueue_font_ids filter — themes and extensions can force specific fonts to load on every page.
• Plus many fixes and improvements across the Glyphs Panel, variable fonts, editor font loading, and admin accessibility (including a WCAG color-contrast audit of all admin color schemes) — the complete list is in changelog.txt.

2.0.1

• Fixed: Mixed-content blocking of locally-hosted fonts in the Glyphs Panel — same-host http:// font file URLs are now upgraded to https:// before fetching, so fonts whose stored kit CSS contains absolute insecure URLs load correctly on HTTPS sites (cross-origin URLs are left untouched)

Older releases are documented in changelog.txt (bundled with the plugin) and on the GitHub Releases page.
