In reply to: Changing Font Family in Menus QuestionI think I found the solutions, granted I don’t need any special character, but I think it should still work.
Hey there,
I just purchased PictureThis theme and I’m quite happy about it BUT I ran
over some problems with embedded font – BebasNeue used in h1/h2/h3/etc. By default it does not support for example polish chars such as ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, etc. I already solved them and decided to share a short walk-through. There may be a topic about this issue, I don’t know, but what I do know, there is not even a word about it in documentation.Believe me, font-related problems are the worst pain in the butt for webdevelopers in this weird-alphabeted country. So my tip: assuring a potential customer that he the theme will be able to display all characters may be what sells it.
Back to the topic. To make it work with these crazy chars:
1 – Generate new font files here – https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/bebas-neue Select “Polish” (or any other language if needed) and click on “Download a @font-face kit” button. Then replace four font files (.ttf, .eot, .svg, .woff.) from main theme’s folder with the ones you just downloaded.
2 – Head over to https://cufon.shoqolate.com/generate/, select a font’s .tff file on your hard drive, make sure to check Basic Latin, Latin-1 Supplement, Latin Extended-A and Latin Extended-B options and generate new .js file. Copy it to /js folder of PictureThis
3- DISCO! – you’ve got yourself a polish-friendly font on your website.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Changing Font Family in Menus QuestionHey,
Thanks for that response, I was worried nobody was going to answer. It is a bought template. However, I would like to choose a common font that most people would have already installed like Helvetica. It is the themes style sheet and I believe that they are. How would I change it to a more common font? Here is a link to the blog.

In reply to: Images/ new uploads not appearing on homepageHey guys,
I just noticed something new with the error mentioned above. Under the settings window in the WordPress manager if you navigate to the media tab there are the content upload paths. Currently, I have both the store uploads in this folder and the full path urls pointing to my sub-domain. (https://images.clayhowardsmith.com) While waiting for a reply I decided to start messing with these options. I found that if I take away the full url box, the post preview image that is not appearing appears, but everything else on the page becomes a broken image. When I replaced the full url the page finds all of the post images except the very first one. So the first image for the post PRIME is still missing and I cannot add new posts because they show up with broken image files.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Clay
