Known Issues and Common Concerns
Why Does My Page Builder Not Update When I click “Capitalize”?
We work with many page builders, but are continuing to add support for additional page builders. For now, first can capitalize your headings in the Capitalize My Title widget, then click the button “Classic Mode,” Gutenberg, or similar and then switch back to the page builder.
Please consider contacting us with the name of your theme and page builder so that we can add it to future releases.
Why Isn’t My Title Capitalizing?
There are some current limitations in the plugin that we plan to resolve in future versions. Some of these include:
Headings that have different formatting in the middle of the heading
Headings that have stylized formatting in the middle of the heading that is not applied to the entire heading currently cannot be updated properly. For example, you italicize or underline a word or phrase in your heading. You will manually need to copy/paste the heading from the text box into your editor.
