Category description: where to change the font?

Hi,

You could use a cloud category template – https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/Category
In a cloud template the category description has font settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/CeIXjt6Tdg

In the theme panel there is no general setting for the category descriptions. If you want to keep using the template you are using now, let me know how you want to modify the description. I will try to provide a solution.

Thanks

There is a way. In order to be able to apply a font with CSS, it has to be loaded first. Currently the Helvetica font is not set for any element in the website, so it isn’t loaded. From what I can see it isn’t even available in the font selection drop-down in the theme panel.

Custom fonts can be loaded in the theme panel, there are 5 spots available

Or they can be loaded with CSS in the custom CSS section.

So you could download the respective font, it should be available online. If it doesn’t come with a woff format, there are converters online as well (font converter to woff).

Once converted, upload it in the theme panel. Then it will be loaded by the theme. So after doing this now the font can be applied with CSS
This code should apply the font for the category description (if the font family name is Helvetica – http://prntscr.com/o7sbfh )

.category .td-category-description p {
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}

Let me know if you need help, or you have more questions.
Thanks

Seems I didn’t see that font there, sorry for that. I have set it for an element to see if it applies, seems it does not for me. I did some research and found that the Helvetica font and all related families are available for use only by purchasing them
– https://fonts.google.com/?query=helvetica
So it is not a free font for all to use, like other Google fonts
– https://fonts.google.com/

Maybe you could use a different similar font in this case

If you want to do this and the font is not available in the theme panel, you can load it and apply it as mentioned above.

Hi,

1. That doesn’t have a font setting in the theme panel, if you want to modify the description font in the default author page template, it could be dome with some CSS
– http://prntscr.com/oadqzr
If you need help with it let me know. Here is the code used in the emxample

.author .author-box-wrap .desc {
font-size: 15px;
}

2. I see the mobile theme is active, you could do that with some CSS as well, for example
– http://prntscr.com/oadtrt

.wp-block-image figcaption {
font-size: 15px;
line-height: 26px;
}

The mobile theme has a dedicated custom CSS section, so the codes entered there will apply only to it – http://prntscr.com/oaduv3
If you need help with it let me know. I should note that in coming updates the mobile theme (which currently does not have any font settings) will receive font settings in the theme panel.

3. That is not actually Helvetica, this font is not being loaded. So the next font in line in the font family is loaded – http://prntscr.com/oadw1n – http://prntscr.com/oadw9k
Please edit the page with the tagDiv composer, click on the text elements and choose different fonts and colors as you want – http://prntscr.com/oadxka and they should apply properly.

Let me know.

Glad to help. Regarding the font, I still see this font family set to load

If you have changed the font in the composer – http://prntscr.com/oaue6i it should be seen on the front end. Could be a caching issue if you use one, maybe try to clear it then check again.
If you want us to take a closer look at it, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login. Include a link to this topic in the email. Let me know.

Hello !

Please add this css code too for lists: .tdm_smart_list_1 .td-sml-caption {
font-size: 11px;
line-height: 15px;
font-style: italic;
}
}

Thank you !
