From de3a7f70bf74e477b152040c63975815854a477e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Nothaft <53005142+the-luap@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 14:26:51 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fix(cms): enable the Tailwind typography plugin so prose classes work (#1288) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit tailwind.config.js had plugins: [] and @tailwindcss/typography was never installed, so every prose / prose-neutral / dark:prose-invert class in the app resolved to nothing. Preflight, which IS active, resets h1-h6 to inherit size and weight and strips list-style from ul/ol — so an applied
it replaced.
The editor was never broken. The toolbar highlighted because
editor.isActive('heading') correctly returned true; only the CSS to show
it was missing. That also explains why pasting rendered rich text worked:
it carries inline styles.
Ten surfaces rely on these classes, including the PUBLIC CMS pages — so
impressum/datenschutz were serving unstyled headings to visitors too.
Review follow-ups: prose colours are mapped to the theme tokens wherever
.text-theme marks theme-owned text (a dark gallery preset sets
--color-text but no .dark class, so dark:prose-invert never engages and
headings would have gone near-black on dark); code blocks inherit rather
than being scaled twice; and H5/H6 get explicit rules, since the plugin
only styles h1-h4.
Closes #1288
