Hello Kriesi and Enfold family.

Disclaimer: I’m not good with coding.

I hope you can help me with a problem regarding fonts. I have searched the web and found to fonts I would like to use on my website.

Crimson Text Regular for all headings and Source Sans Pro Regular for all normal text. Both Google fonts.

I have looked at the documentation file here:

Register Additional Google Fonts for Theme Options

and another support post here:
https://kriesi.at/support/topic/add-new-font/#post-234710

But for some reason I can’t get my head around it..
I would love to be able to select them from the drop down menu in Enfold –> Generel styling –> Fonts or Enfold –> Advanced styling.

I have tried to insert some code in the functions.php file and custom CSS. But the I can’t solve the problem.

Have you by any chance made a video of this, or a really easy guide to follow? :)

I hope you can help me.
Kind regards,
Gustav

Hi Gustav,

I see that you are not using a child theme, that means that all changes made to your theme will be overwritten on updates. Could you download and set up a child theme first maybe? http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/downloads/.

After that you can go to Udseende->Editor and paste the following code into the end of the file called functions.php:
```
add_filter( 'avf_google_heading_font', 'avia_add_heading_font');
function avia_add_heading_font($fonts)
{
$fonts['PT Sans Narrow'] = 'PT Sans Narrow:400,700';
$fonts['PT Sans'] = 'PT Sans:400,700,400italic,700italic';
return $fonts;
}

add_filter( 'avf_google_content_font', 'avia_add_content_font');
function avia_add_content_font($fonts)
{

$fonts['PT Sans'] = 'PT Sans:400,700,400italic,700italic';
$fonts['PT Sans Narrow'] = 'PT Sans Narrow:400,700';
return $fonts;
}
```
Make sure it’s working after doing this, after that you can simply replace PT Sans with the font you want to import.

Best regards,
Rikard

Hi Rikard,

Hello Rikard,

Great! Amazing it works :)

Thank you very much. The guide for the child theme was really useful.
The code you send is also working as well. Great!

If I would like to instal the Crimson text font as well, should I just replace “PT Sans Narrow” with “Crimson Text”?

Another question. Before I installed the child theme I had the API key set up for automatically updates on the theme. How do I do that now? Should I just insert my key in the child theme?

Thank you so much for the help,
Kind regards,
Gustav

Hi,

Yes, you can use it on your child theme since it’s just the same site. And yes, you can replace PT Sans Narrow with Crimson text :)

Hi Semito,

Yes, if you use Enfold 4.4, you use this code:
```
add_filter( 'avf_available_google_fonts',  'avia_add_google_font');
function avia_add_google_font( $fonts ) {
	$fonts['Cinzel'] = 'Cinzel';
	return $fonts;
}
```
You should find Cinzel last in the list.
Hope this helps :)

Hi Semito,

Can you give us admin access? so we can check it further.
Have tested it on my end and it does work.
Maybe some caching issue? just post the details in private content.

Hi Semito,

No, I haven’t received it, Private Content is located at the bottom of the textarea where you reply, you should see this text above it:
Private Content (link to your website, login credentials, FTP credentials, etc – only visible for moderators)
Content in there is only visible to you as the thread creator and moderators.

Hi,

Thanks for the update. The Appearance > Editor panel is not accessible though. Please enable it or provide the FTP details. You should add that filter in the child theme’s functions.php file. Don’t forget to refresh the page afterwards.

Ismael

Hi Semito,

I have tried to access the ftp with the details you gave however it doesn’t work.
Also I checked your site, which text did you use the Cinzel font? I do see Cormorant font used.

It would be nice to know if filters are renamed or replaced by other ones – maybe in the changelog of a new version!

the new : avf_available_google_fonts – i just recognized it on some pages where the content font does not work like before
