    Hello,

    I’ve installed a custom font and applied it to all headers and the menu. It looks great on every browser except Firefox. The front page looks fine, but the other pages revert to some other font. I’m running version 34.0. Screen shots attached. The second one shows the custom font, the first shows the replacement that is happening. screenshot 1screenshot 2Thanks for the help.

    Hi 1lizcollins!

    It’s not happening on your homepage but for all of your other pages your getting a 404 not found error on this file.

    /MyFontsWebfontsKit.css

    How are you adding it?

    Best regards,
    Elliott

    I added that file (MyFontsWebfontsKit.css) to the root folder, and the fonts themselves are in a folder called “webfonts” which is also in the root folder. Then I added this code to the header.php file, per the instructions from the website where I downloaded the font. Oddly, I see everything displaying properly in Safari & Chrome, only see the issue in Firefox.

    Hi!

    Try using an absolute path to the file to see if the 404 error goes away.
