kopfteam on "[Plugin: Real-Time Find and Replace] Does not work with "Avada" Theme"

Our webdesigner used your Plugin to replace a few remaining Englisch words on the otherwise German website (replace "Read More" with "Weiterlesen"...)
Everything worked on the desktop, but your Plugin breaks the fonts on iPhone/iPad! Neither the selected Google font nor the selected "backup font" (Arial, Helvetica, ....) was used on the iOS devices but something that looked like Times.
In addition the readymade "Google Maps" part offered by the theme not only didn't work but prevented the whole contact page from being displayed (loading forever).
After I disabled your Plugin both problems vanished immediatelly.

I implemented the German translation of the theme now (as it should have been done in the first place anyway). Everything works now and I don't need your Plugin anymore.
Maybe you want to test your Plugin with the Avada theme to help other users ;-)

How do you know my plugin is causing a problem? Are you getting a particular error message? Or are you toggling the plugin and the site works when it is deactivated and breaks when it is activated?

Exactly. I retested it a minute ago. Activating your Plugin means "Times" on my iPhone, deactivating it means the correct font. No error messages. Just the wrong font on iOS.

BTW: There are 5 replace pairs defined:

Related Posts -> Weitere Beiträge
Related Projects -> Weitere Projekte
Read More -> weiterlesen...
Categories -> Kategorie
By -> Von

Any chance the last rule is matching something unexpected? The Find rule is so short that it might be appearing in unexpected places. Can you replace it with something longer perhaps including a little bit of the preceding or following HTML code. Even an opening or closing < > added to the find rule would make the rule more specific.

I don't believe the Avada theme is free so I'm not able to test against it.

I had the same idea after I wrote the last reply.

I don't want to test now, because the site owner is looking at the site now on his iPad. I'll modify the last rule tomorrow and let you know what happens.

And no, Avada is not free.

You were right! I reactivated your Plugin (wrong fonts on my iPad again) and changed the last rule from
By -> Von
to
Byxxx -> Von
and immediatelly I have the correct fonts on my iPad! So this short rule replaced something it shouldn't have touched.

Thank you so much for your fast response on a Saturday evening! I mark this topic as resolved.
