Font Change

  • I’m in the process of editing my first child theme and I’m a bit stuck when trying to change the overall font on my website.

    I’ve inserted the following into my function.php

    function load_fonts() {
            wp_register_style('et-googleFonts', 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans');
            wp_enqueue_style( 'et-googleFonts');
        }
    add_action('wp_print_styles', 'load_fonts');

    What do I need to add to my style.css to change the font throughout the entire website including Menus? The only different will be sizing and colours (for links).

    Thank you.

    Ella

    Your site is currently broken. Check the child functions.php

    *Quicksand to your font name.

    body {
font-family: 'Quicksand', sans-serif;
}

    Index.php and other important .php files.
    <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Quicksand" rel="stylesheet">

    Thank you, both.

    My functions.php is as follows

    <?php
    add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘my_theme_enqueue_styles’ );
    function my_theme_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );

    }
    ?>

    Any clue whats wrong wih it? I copied it from https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes

    So to change the font, do I need to change anything other than the functions.php and style.css?

    You just need to add a font-family line to your CSS.
