    After upgrading to version 5.3.0 from 5.2.4, I’m getting a white screen of death in the frontend of the site (not in wp-admin).

    I’m getting these errors (sitespecific information removed):

    [14-Mar-2018 00:37:44 UTC] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Cannot instantiate abstract class WP_Typography in /wp-content/plugins/wp-typography/includes/wp-typography/data-storage/class-transients.php:120

#4 /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(286 in /wp-content/plugins/wp-typography/includes/wp-typography/data-storage/class-transients.php on line 120

    I reverted to 5.2.4 as a temporary solution.

    5.3.1 should fix the issue by automatically clearing the cache (after each plugin update).

    My apologies for not responding when it would have been useful for me to do so. Sorry about that. Was unavailable for a few days. Seems like the problem is fixed, so that is good news. Thank you for your prompt assistance/fix.

    @drriley, no problem. Can you confirm that 5.3.1 works on your installation?

    Indeed the problem seems to be fully resolved now. Thank you.

    Thank you all for working with me on this! The problem was that the cache was cleared on plugin activation, but not during updates (which I sort of knew, but missed during the 5.1 refactoring of that code).

    @firmdot: Reactivating the plugin will fix the issue (as will updating to 5.3.1).

    Thanks for getting to the root of this so quickly. Really like your plugin!
