i use the next gen gallery Plugin, at the gallery page next gen load the google font “lato”. Is it possible to remove the lato font?

thanks for help

I’m using Futurio for a website I have created, for the local community centre. It works great and in most cases, displays correctly. The website uses Merriweather font for the titles and Lato for the content/body text.

When the user visits the page by typing in the web address, or clicking on the Google search results, the fonts display fine.

However, when the user visits the page, either by clicking through on the web address via the Website button in the Google business profile, or through the link on the facebook page, the fonts don’t display correctly, on certain browsers. They seem to default to the fallback fonts. I’m not sure why, since it displays correctly in most cases.

I am using the Autoptimize plugin, and I have made sure I have cleared the cache.

Is there anything I am missing, which could explain why the fonts don’t display correctly, but only on clickthrough links?

Thanks!

I am changing fonts on my website. I previously had a text font (Merriweather) and a Display font. Both came from Google fonts and I loaded both in the functions.php file using enqueue.

I have changed the text font to Lato from Google fonts, but it won’t show in Safari (which I generally work in) but does show in Chrome. Using Whatfont extension, I can see that Safari is not loading Lato but the generic Sans Serif file which is the fallback in the font declaration in the stylesheet.

So my questions are, please:

1. Has anyone else had this problem and solved it?
2. Is there any problem if I load the fonts in header.php?

Thanks

the .footer-widget-area class does not inherit any of the Customised fonts for Site Title, Navigation, Headings, Primary or Secondary. Instead the font for it remains the default Lato font of the theme. Changes is possible via custom.css:

.footer-widget-area {
	font-family: "Roboto", sans-serif;
	/*font-family: inherit;*/ /*inherits Arial(!)*/
}

in the changelog of the last update you write: “Added option to disable Google Fonts with a translateable string”. Could you please explain how exactly I can achieve this?

And are still the Lato and Merriweather fonts used but loaded from my webspace or do you use system fonts instead?

Thank you for your answer and work on the theme!

Cor

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    color: #222222;
    font-family: "Lato",sans-serif;
    font-weight: normal;
}

When I try to use additional CSS, the color is changed, but the font never changed on the page displayed.
my site is: https://la-grange-des-maths.com/
(note: I’m not sure but it seems it was ok before I changed the theme and then go back to “Spacious”)

I’m making some CSS mods and have spotted a few tiny bugettes on the use of fonts.

1. Incorrect CSS asking for font that’s not loaded (default settings)
Inside the CSS for the bbpress fonts used by the theme (in style.css:5260), you have:

#bbpress-forums fieldset.bbp-form legend {
    ...
    font-family: 'Montserrat', Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-weight: 500;
    ...
}

Unfortunately, only Montserrat with weight 700 has been loaded (in functions.php:189), with:

if ( 'off' !== $monserrat ) {
            $font_families[] = 'Montserrat:700';
        }

Indeed, Montserrat would appear only to be available (from Google, at least) in weights 400 and 700: https://www.google.com/fonts#UsePlace:use/Collection:Montserrat

Solution options:
– My favoured fix would be to add the 400 weight. That is (in functions.php:189), with:

if ( 'off' !== $monserrat ) {
            $font_families[] = 'Montserrat:400,700';
        }

– Alternatively, you could change the CSS to make it all 700, but that’s a little heavy in the context.

2. Incorrect CSS asking for font that’s not loaded (with “Use safe font” checked)
If the “Use safe font” option is checked, neither Montserrat nor Lato appear to be loaded. However, the CSS is still asking for them. For example:

body {
	font-family: 'Lato', Helvetica, sans-serif !important;
	...
}

The next fallback font is Helvetica, which is a shame, because Open Sans has been loaded by the theme and is more interesting than (the lovely, but ubiquitous) Helvetica.

Could I suggest that you add Open Sans as a fallback, before Helvetica?

That is, the CSS above would become:

body {
	font-family: 'Lato','Open Sans', Helvetica, sans-serif !important;
	...
}

(with corresponding changes for all the Montserrat declarations too).

Otherwise, it seems a bit odd going to the bother of loading all the Open Sans fonts in the first place, if we’re not going to use them (and an alternative solution–though not at all my preferred one–would be not to load Open Sans at all).

3. Typos
There are some typos in the theme, where Montserrat is written incorrectly as Monserrat.

Hope this helps to further improve an already great theme!

I’m having a problem with the font used in my site. It looks fine in Google Chrome but really hideous and ugly in Apple Safari.

My site uses Google font Lato Ultra-light 100.

Virtually all the people in my industry are on Macs and invariably use Safari to go online, so unfortunately most people who see my site are seeing it with horrible looking text.

Any suggestions on how I can get the Lato font to look good in Safari would be really appreciated.
