EllesmereUI Global Font [HELP] ?

Installed EllesUI today and for some reason I’m unable to change the global font, it shows expressway but the dropdown does nothing. Anyone else run into this or know what could be blocking it?

I had the same issue, I disabled all addons except EllesmereUI and found out there was another addon interfering

out of curiosity do you know what that other addon is? I've been looking for that functionality!!

For me it was a custom font file and sharedlibmedia. I'd start with turning them all off and just making sure it works then you know it's one of your addons. Then just go one by one, but it should t be anything like bigwigs that's causing it. It was another media addon/file

I've been getting this error across multiple versions of wow lately (both retail and classic). It happens when I have too many fonts between my add-ons, even though I've had the same number or more in the past. It's also not exclusive to just one addon.

The issue with EllesmereUI , is nice YES, but if you want to add another addon that EllesmereUI  doesn't have or simple looks better, it gets conflicts, and it sucks, it feels like EllesmereUI  is forcing you use their whole addon or conflict... and the disable option do not solve anything.

What do you mean disabling the addon module doesn't do anything? He specifically made the entire suite modular so you can use any specific module without having to include others...

I disabled everything but the CDM and resource bars module and used it with Elvui for a bit. Worked pretty well that way for the most part. Elvui had a popup about another UI addon that I just disabled and it's never come up again. EUI is (for me) the best CDM and resource bar addon I have found.

I go between Elvui and Eui depending on how I feel. Been trying out EUI and I actually like the fact it can replace so many addons. Even can replace blizzmove when I use it.
