Button color setting ignored in Neve

Okay – more investigation. I CAN set the button color and text color in the block setting, and the colors I assigned in the customizer button colors and typography tab are choices. But when I set them in the customizer, aren’t they supposed to be the default?

Also, the text is to all caps (Uppercase) not Capitalize as I set in the customizer. There is no place in the block setting to change it.

Hi @rstar1web,

Could you share a screenshot of how colors are set in customizer for your buttons?

Also, share the page where the button is added, not modified within a block, and is not rendered correctly.

You can use CSS:
.wp-block-button a {
  text-transform: capitalize;
}

To make block buttons be capitalized and not uppercase.

Thank you. sorry for the delay in responding.
This is a shot of a button added: https://prntscr.com/ut2bfm This is the site page link – I’ll leave it as is: https://hfebooks.com/diana-of-orchard-slope/

This is a shot of my button settings in the Customizer: https://prntscr.com/ut2cny

In the block settings, I DO have the custom colors for text and background that I set in the customizer, and I can select them. But aren’t these suppose to be the default colors? And it ignores the typography setting as well.

Thanks for the CSS for the typography, I see it works by adding it to the CSS customization.

Hi @rstar1web,

Thank you for providing more details.

I tested the button block and it is working as expected.

I set the button colors first on my Customizer, both primary button and secondary.
I then created a new post and use the button block, tested both primary and secondary buttons and it shows the same colors that I set in Customizer.
The typography is the same as well from the one I chose in the Customizer.

If the issue is the same, try deleting your site cache and check again.
You can share your screencast as well in case the issue persists.

Yes, okay. Rather than setting the button style, I was setting the colors of the button – even more hassle.

But as you show in your video, the default style in the dropdown box is set to “secondary” and when you add the button, it comes up as default (dark grey) colors and you must select primary or secondary still. Is there some place to set the default so it will come up when I select a button? Or it seems even with the default set (in your example), you still need to select the style. It seems very illogical.

But thank you for the effort to show me this – it helps quite a bit.

@rstar1web,

You can customize primary and secondary button styles in customizer but not the default one. The default style comes from the default color palette of Gutenberg and colors that are set there in the palette.

Oh, Gutenberg button default. My misunderstanding. Thank you for your help.
