Duplicating button components when copying from relume

At a glance

The community member is experiencing an issue where the "Button" component is duplicating into new styles when copying in new components from Relume. The community members suggest that the issue is caused by the use of font variables, which the extension does not sync well. The recommendation is to avoid using font variables, as this should resolve the duplication issue. The community members also note that this is a known issue that the extension developers are working on, but there is no estimated timeline for a fix.

Hi Everyone, Does anyone know why when I'm copying in new components from Relume "Button" keeps on duplicating into new style? It's very frustrating. Sync is on. Yes, I have restyled the buttons.

make sure the chrome extension is on. If it is you’ll need to delete the duplicate classes first and they should then sync correctly.

the issue is because of the font variable. Right now the extension does not do a great job of syncing when font variables are enabled. I would recommend avoiding font variables and things should sync just fine.

Its a known issue that we have on our list but no ETA, apologies for the inconvenience here.

Thanks ! Works like a charm. Bye bye font variables, until we meet again ;)

ha yeah! Once Webflow releases breakpoint support for those other variables, we'll reconsider our strategy. We've actually already begun some researching on variables and planning for our next phase of implementation. More to come soon!

did not know that, I’ll make sure not to use font variables. Thanks for sharing that. It would’ve driven me crazy.

oh, yea, I'm going much less crazy now ;)
