I have spent the last couple of weekends working on version 1.0 of AnyFont, which I was initially planning on releasing this weekend. I have decided to rather hold off releasing it until next weekend though to allow some more time for testing.
For those who cant wait though, read on to see the list of new features, some screenshots and to download the beta release.
New Features in version 1.0
- Option to automatically change menu text for menu’s generated with wp_list_pages or wp_page_menu. Included in this feature is the ability to assign styles for hover(mouseover) and the active page.
- New settings page to assign styles to text after the page has loaded by using CSS selectors - moved to version 1.1
- Automatic plugin “health” checks with alerts and tips on how to solve the problem should the plugin not be able to automatically fix it.
- Cache management options to limit the amount of disk space AnyFont can use for saving fonts and caching images.
- Advanced controls for power users that want to set custom locations for saving fonts or cache files.
- New style option to add extra padding to an image should you find your text is getting cut off.
Bugfixes
Along with some serious code optimisations made with this release, I have made a point of tackling every issue reported and implemented steps to ensure those problems would not occur again so easily. If you one of those who reported an issue, I just want to say thanks! And if I have not replied to your post or bug report as yet, please accept my apologies, I will be making a point of replying to everyone shortly.

this is what i get after activating plugin(anyfont 1.0.1)
and this in http://mysite/wp-admin/admin.php?page=anyfont-settings:

Hi,
when I activate your plugin I have problems with admin panels: articles and comments disappears, widgets have strange behaviours …
I have WP 2.9.2 and Anyfont 1.0.3
thank you
Sadly despite trying everything I’m still unable to get it working
For some reason it doesn’t want to generate anything in the Cache folder. Theres no errors, its their and CHMOD settings are all correct. Instead of using the font it just shows as normal;

Even when I try to preview a font, that doesn’t work neither does the character mapping.
After installing it, the settings panel is blank — nothing on it at all — what’s up with that?
I cant think of any reason why it would do that off the top of my head, could you provide a little more information about your setup please. Your WP version, Apache/lighthttpd/nginx version, PHP version, GD/Imagick version would be a good start.
Also, do the Font Manager/Style Manager pages show anything or are they blank as well?
All Pages are blank.
I am running WordPress with the most current version … Version 2.9.2
Apache version 2.2.14
PHP version 5.2.12
GD/Imagick version 2.0
theme: Blue Horizon — http://www.kaushalsheth.info/?p=10
If it won’t run out of the box I won’t be paying any fees, but thanks.
I have 1.0 installed and notice that, on some titles, the last character is cut off a bit. You can see what I mean on the web site that I’m in the process of setting up. http://www.richardwwood.com
I have the exact same problem… after installing, the settings/font manager/style manager pages are all blank.
I am running WordPress with the Version 2.9.2
Apache version1.3.41
PHP version 5
GD/Imagick version
I have EXACT same issue. It installs fine but the Settings, Font Manager & Style Manager pages are completely blank. I have WordPress 3.0 and ProPhoto 3.0. Another photographer told me it worked fine on hers. Odd.
Hey Ryan,
The font I wanted was uploaded into the “Install Fonts” option.
I am using Version 1.1.3 of AnyFont, but does not allow me to make any font changes. I am using Thesis 1.7 theme for WordPress, any thoughts?
I’m sorry if this question has been answered before, I didn’t find it!
Anyways, I was wondering if there is any way to make scandinavian letters (like Å, Ä and Ö) appear correctly? Depending on the font I use, they either appear as a rectangular shape or just a blank space, even if the font itself contains those letters.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Installs fine buit the three Plugin menu pages are blank when I try to access them. I have WordPress 3.0 and ProPhoto Theme 3.0. A friend has same two and says it worked fine for hers.
