Hi, I am trying to install a custom font needed for YMCA websites called Cachet.

1) I have added the three custom fonts to the fonts folder as .woff files

2) I have added a custom.css file in the j51_sophia/CSS folder that includes the following

h1 {
font-size: 34px;
}
h2 {
font-size: 28px;
}
h3 {
font-size: 24px;
}

@font-face {
font-family: 'Cachet-Book';
src: url('//http://www.wcfymca.org/39/templates/j51_sophia/fonts/Cachet-Book.woff') format('woff');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}

@font-face {
font-family: 'Cachet-Medium';
src: url('//http://www.wcfymca.org/39/templates/j51_sophia/fonts/Cachet-Medium.woff') format('woff');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}

@font-face {
font-family: 'Cachet-Bold';
src: url('//http://www.wcfymca.org/39/templates/j51_sophia/fonts/Cachet-Bold.woff') format('woff');
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}

body {
font-family: Cachet-Book !important;
}

h1 {
font-family: Cachet-Bold !important;
}

h2 {
font-family: Cachet-Medium !important;
}


I'm needing the h1/h2 and body section to use the Cachet font but it doesn't seem to be showing for me.

Website is http://www.wcfymca.org/39

Thanks in advance
Dan

Hello

To amend try replacing the font-face CSS with the following...

@font-face {

font-family: 'Cachet-Book';

src: url('//http://www.wcfymca.org/39/templates/j51_sophia/fonts/Cachet-Book.woff') format('woff');

font-weight: normal;

font-style: normal;

}



@font-face {

font-family: 'Cachet-Medium';

src: url('//http://www.wcfymca.org/39/templates/j51_sophia/fonts/Cachet-Medium.woff') format('woff');

font-weight: normal;

font-style: normal;

}



@font-face {

font-family: 'Cachet-Bold';

src: url('//http://www.wcfymca.org/39/templates/j51_sophia/fonts/Cachet-Bold.woff') format('woff');

font-weight: normal;

font-style: normal;

}

Hi Ciaran,
Thanks for the info. I have replaced the above into the custom.css file and selected "Load Custom CSS" as yes, but I don't see the new font on the site. Thanks in advance for the assistance. Getting custom fonts to work is kicking my ass.. :)

Thank you

We have updated your custom CSS and your font appears to be now loading correctly.

Hi Ciaran,
I just checked the fonts on the site (the body and the h1 and h2 headings) and it seems they aren't using the Cachet fonts. Can you take another look at the body font. thanks

Hi Dan

To amend try adding the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters (Extensions -> Templates -> [YourTemplateStyle] -> Custom CSS)....

h2, h2 a:link, h2 a:visited {

	font-family: Cachet-Medium !important;

}

Thanks Ciaran,
I have added that to my custom.css file located within the CSS folder of the template I'm using. I have attached the CSS I'm using below

Still showing the body font as a default system font versus the Cachet Medium font.

thanks in advance
Dan

Hi Dan

Checking your site in Firefox, all text appears to be using the Cachet font. Could you possibly be loading a cached version of your site?
