    Hi,
    on the site below, we are having an issue with font weight.
    When I set h tag font weight to Roboto 300, it actually appears on the site front side like a 100 weight. WAY too thin and light. When I move up to 400, it’s WAY too heavy. There’s a dramatic jump between these weights that doesn’t reflect the way the font actually should look. Wish I could give you screen shots for you to see what I mean. I’m trying to recreate an exact replica of a site that already exists in another theme, but building it in enfold. So I know exactly how the font should look.

    Hey wordninj,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    The font weight 300 is actually missing or available for the default Roboto font, only the 100, 400 and 700 variants are available. To include the other font weights, try to add this filter in the functions.php file.

    
function avia_add_content_font($fonts)
{
    $fonts['Roboto'] = 'Roboto:100,300,400,500,700';
    return $fonts;
}
add_filter( 'avf_google_heading_font',  'avia_add_content_font');
add_filter( 'avf_available_google_fonts',  'avia_add_content_font');

    Select the font again from the fonts panel, then toggle or temporarily disable the Enfold > Performance > File Compression settings.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Thanks for this. I don’t work in PHP very often, so I’m always nervous to do it. Can you help me make sure I do it right?

    My understanding is that I just go to Appearance>Theme Editor>Functions.php and drop this code in, and save the new version. This is in my child theme that I work from.

    Correct?

    Hi,

    Thank you for the update.

    We did not find the filter or code in the functions.php file, so we added it again. We also renamed the font to Roboto New, and reselected it from the Enfold > General Styling > Fonts panel. The correct font weight is now displaying properly. Please do not forget to purge the cache before checking the page.

    Best regards,
    Ismael
