TailPress – Tailwind for WordPress

Tailwind CSS is a great companion to building block based sites in WordPress. Unfortunately, it’s been pretty complicated to add Tailwind CSS to WordPress since it needs to be compiled with Node.js in order to be production ready. This plugin takes care of that by adding Tailwind CSS to WordPress in one easy step (activate the plugin) and at the same time takes care of performance and caching so your site remains fast and production ready! Who It’s For This is primarily for developers and users that are familiar with Tailwind CSS and comfortable styling their site using their utility class framework. It’s also for those who have struggled to add Tailwind to their workflow without having to constantly compile their CSS every time the classes in their page content changes. How it Works Extracts classes from pages and compiles them server-side into Tailwind CSS Caches the dynamically generated CSS to avoid performance issues on the frontend of your production site. Are you affiliated with tailpress.io the theme? No, we are not! Unfortunately the same name was used for both out of coincidence, but we are not affiliated and are two different solutions. Tailpress.io is a great starting point for developing custom themes with deep integration of Tailwind. I would recommend it for any developer that wants to build a custom theme that depends heavily on Tailwind. Tailpress, this plugin, adds Tailwind support to any project as an add-on. It can be used as much or as little as you need, added to custom themes or pre-existing ones. Can this be used in production? Yes! Although the styles in the backend get generated on the fly, the CSS on the frontend gets cached for every page. Changing any classes on the page will bust the cache automatically so it’ll still stay up to date with any changes. Can this be used outside the block editor? Yes! This will work anywhere on the backend or front end of your site that uses classes to style things. Known Issues Device Preview Mode in Block Editor The non-desktop preview modes in the block editor utilize an iframe and don’t load assets properly. Therefore your Tailwind styles won’t be visible here. Page Caching If you have any page caching on your site, you’ll have to clear your cache for the best experience.

The Typography

Demo – Documentation – GitHub Add Typography to your Gutenberg site using Google Fonts. Enter CSS selectors or select Blocks to apply custom typography. Typography style Available typography options include: Font family & variants from Google Fonts Color (hex or rgba) Font size Line height Font weight Font style (italic, normal, oblique) Letter spacing Text transform (capitalize, uppercase, lowercase) Text decoration (line-through, overline, underline) Typography context Typographies can be assigned to a specific context: All site Post types/s (post types available on the site) Post types/s template (index, single) Front page 404 page Typography selectors Each typography can have several groups of selectors with unique modifications based on the root typography. For example: a typography can be set with a certain Font, Color and Font size; each of its groups of selectors inherit those properties and one could modify the inherited color and other the inherited Font size. Available CSS selectors include: Text CSS selector (eg: .site-title a) Block Selector (eg: Block Quote > Citation) Usage The plugin can be accesed from the Customizer inside the tab The Typography. It can also be accesed from any Block editor’s The Typography sidebar (top right corner of the editor). Create a typography and assign it some options; create a group of selectors and inside it create some CSS or Block selectors. That’s it! If you want to preview the different fonts before selecting one you can preview them in the Google Fonts repository. Note: The typography editing is assigned to the ‘edit_theme_options’ capability. This means that, by default, only admin and super admin will be able to use the features.
