Uploaded webfonts are not available in font manager

[prazzo101]

Hello,

I tried to upload .woff-files which worked without problems, they are visible in my media manager, but they don’t show up in my fonts manager. I used the same fonts in an earlier project without any issues, but I deleted my uploads to start fresh and I accidentally deleted all webfonts too. Now I can’t use them again because they don’t show up in the fonts manager.

How can I fix this?

Thanks!

Hi @mariusjopen and @arminunruh,

I've just tried and I also have the same issue.

When I add the font by clicking on "Add by file (.woff/...)"
the font is uploading but nothing happen after, and the font doesn't appear on the font list. However when I go in Media, I can see that the file has been uploaded. And the font doesn't appear in the list in a text field.

May be an issue with the last Lay update ?

Yeah, it happened for me after the latest update as well, I had no issues prior to that.

Dear,

there seems to be an issue. We are looking onto that!

Best!

Same issue here! Looking forward to the solution...

@annalaroe While waiting for a fixed font manager, I just did it the oldschool way and embedded the fonts with @font-face.

But I hope a fix is coming soon, using the font manager and being able to change text formats on the fly and actually seeing what you’re doing is so good.

Fingers crossed!

Thanks @piero101 ! Might look into it if there is no fast fix. I uploaded a font maybe two weeks ago and that works fine. Now all the new uploads go into the Media folder and don't show in the font manager.

update lay theme to 2.6.4 and re-add the webfonts in the webfontmanager

[annalaroe]

Thank you so much for fixing this so fast :) Works fine now!

@arminunruh Thanks Armin!!

[mariusjopen]

Perfect!

The problem appears to be back? Can't see any fonts in Media Manager when adding via Font Manager, but can see them when looking up files directly via the Media Manager.

Apart from that getting started with lay theme! woop!

Kind regards,
Amadeus

Dear Amadeus

@schneiderbrett

I am unable to recreate this bug:

---

Wordpress, Lay Theme & Laytheme's Addons are all up to date ?


Any custom CSS or JS that may interfere is temporarily removed.


Any third-party plugins are de-activated to see if this resolves the issue.

Talk soon & happy new year! 🌻

Tested it with different browsers now. The problem seems to lie within firefox.

Chrome: Working!
Safari: Working!
Brave: Working!
Firefox: meh..!
Other browsers: to be tested.

woff2 format seems to work a bit better with firefox thought.

Regards,
Amadeus
