If you’re on Mautic 7.1.0 and scratching your head about the missing typography styles in the GrapesJS style panel, you’re not alone. A community member recently pointed out that while the new CKEditor integration is nice, the usual typography styling block—where you could tweak fonts, sizes, and spacing—has vanished from GrapesJS’s style panel for text blocks. The question: Was this a deliberate change or a bug?
Digging into it, there’s no clear-cut official statement or fix yet. I checked Mautic’s GitHub issues to see if this was flagged as a bug or a planned update, but no relevant entries popped up—likely still fresh or flying under the radar for now. The forum replies (though a bit sparse on details) didn’t provide concrete answers either. Some folks are guessing that typography settings have been moved exclusively into the WYSIWYG editor with CKEditor, meaning you apply font styling directly there rather than in the GrapesJS style panel.
From a practical standpoint, this is a bit of a curveball. One neat thing about GrapesJS has been visually managing styles without toggling back and forth inside text editors. Losing the typography block in the style panel limits quick visual tweaking and can slow down your workflow if you now have to jump into the CKEditor interface for every text style change.
My take? If this change sticks, it’s worth rethinking how you build and style your email or landing page content in Mautic 7.1.0—lean into the CKEditor typography tools but keep an eye out for any upcoming patches or plugins that might bring back more granular style controls in GrapesJS’s panel. Meanwhile, I’d recommend dropping feedback on the forum thread or even opening a GitHub issue if you want to nudge the devs toward restoring or improving this functionality.
For now, keep your eye on that forum conversation—your next styling hack or community workaround might just show up there first.
