In the following example, there are three uses of a deprecated font: the default setting, the preset setting, and the preset block setting.

{% schema %}
{
"name": "Section with Deprecated Font",
"settings": [
{
"type": "font_picker",
"id": "title",
"label": "Title",
"default": "helvetica_n4"
}
],
"presets": [
{
"name": "My preset with invalid font"
"settings": {
"title": "helvetica_n4"
}
"blocks": {
"text-1": {
"type": "text",
"settings": {
"text_font": "helvetica"
}
}
}
}
]
}
{% endschema %}

This example is not exhaustive. The check applies to any font setting value in the block and section schemas.

The following example contains the default configuration for this check:

enabled: true
severity: warning
ParameterDescription

severityThe severity of the check.

Anchor to Disabling this checkDisabling this check

Disabling this check isn't recommended because using deprecated font settings on sections and blocks may lead to unexpected behavior in future Shopify updates. These deprecated font settings are being phased out in favor of the new font system, and themes that continue to use them may experience styling issues or broken functionality when the deprecated features are eventually removed.
