A few more questions

  • I’m doing the final tweaks on my site and I’ve come across some issues I wanted to ask your assistance with.
    On the search results page (search.php) the font type is different from the rest of the website. I’m using the google font ABeeZee on this site. But for some reason on the search results page it seams to switch to a standard sans-serif. When I look at the code, the google font is declared, but not used. Do you have any idea what is going on there?

    I also noticed that my logo doesn’t look the same on different platforms. Even on my wives computer (also win10 and firefox browser) it is completely different and on microsoft edge it is also much more square. Might this be a result of the logo being a svg file?

    The next question is not so much related to your theme, but I ask you anyway: how do I get additional widgets that can be used with customizer to add to the sidebar? I tried several plugins, but none of them show up when I select the add widget button in customizer for the sidebar.

    Any help is, as always, greatly appreciated!
    Bert.

    It looks like the CSS styles are applied but the ABeeZee font files are not loaded. How are you loading the font on the other pages?

    SVG support should be fine, but it’s worth testing out a PNG version to check if this helps. There’s a chance that explicitly setting the height will help:

    .logo {
  height: 59px;
}

    That’s based on the width which has already been set at 200px.

    That’s strange the widgets aren’t appearing. Try checking the Appearance > Widgets menu instead and let me know if you see them appear there.

    On the other pages, I chose the fonts using elementor, so that might be why they are not showing. I did add a function to load the font. >>Seems like I didn’t copy the correct bit for the google-font. I just did it again and now the font is showing correctly. <<

    I tried the css you suggested, but no result. So I will change the svg for a png version.

    I tried checking Appearance>Widgets and none show up there, but one: the plugin I used to display the map in the footer section: cbx google map. I was looking for a widget to use a different search box and maybe a button, but I haven’t found any that will show up on the above mentioned page.

    As to be sure we’re talking about the same: I want to add widgets so that they show up on the left side on Appearance>Widgets, under the section Available Widgets.

    All I’ve seen online is how to add widgets that are available to a section of the theme and not on how to add widgets to the Available Widgets section.

    Okay I understand now. You can add new widgets to the Available Widgets section by installing new plugins on the site.

    Not every plugin has a widget, but most plugins that output content on your site (a slider, search form, etc) will include a widget.
