    Hi there,

    I have a question about variable font support in Lay Theme.
    I’m using the Recursive Variable Font (.ttf), which includes several axes — for example wght, slnt, CASL, and MONO.

    In the Text Format editor, all axes are listed, but only the wght axis (Weight) actually has any visible effect. Adjusting the other axes (like CASL or MONO) doesn’t change the text appearance.

    My questions:
    • Does Lay Theme currently support only the wght axis, or should it be possible to control all variable font axes?
    • If only wght works, is there a way to enable full font-variation-settings support via custom CSS or a future update?
    • Would it make a difference if I used a .woff2 version of the font instead of .ttf?

    I’d love to use Recursive’s full potential — especially the Casualness and Monospacing features.
    Thanks a lot in advance for any insights!

    Best, Juli

      hey!! i think that lay theme should support all axes. but maybe somehow it doesnt work for that font.
      could you send me the font to info@laytheme.com and also send a link to this post with the email?

      i think ttf should be the right format. not sure if woff2 would make a difference

      I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.
      💿 Email me here: 💿
      info@laytheme.com

      Before you post:
      1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
      2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
      3. Disable all Plugins
      4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

      This often solves issues you might run into

      When you post:
      1. Post a link to where the problem is
      2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
      3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
