Can't seem to set font

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am in the process of porting over my site’s stuff over here. My site isn’t a standard blog format, so I can’t do anything automatically.

    I did a copy and paste at work, and one at home.

    The one I did at work (the soda review) came out the way I want:

    The one I did at home (the FL article) didn’t.

    I’m looking to have Sylfaen as the default font, and can’t seem to get it to show up. It only showed up like that due to the copy & paste, and even that I can’t seem to duplicate.

    I’ve tried looking around the CSS, and overriding the default font, but that hasn’t seemed to have worked.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    A related question: I set up the fonts in the Custom Design / Font section. The font shows up correctly in the preview, but when I actually post anything, the theme’s default font still shows up.

    Does the theme’s font override my settings, or is that something abnormal?

    Do you actually HAVE the paid Custom Design upgrade?

    You can preview Custom design for free, but to get it to actually work on your blog, you need the paid upgrade OR you need to hand-code each post according to the link I gave you.

    A warning: we had a guy who hand-coded his entire blog to be a white font. Then he changed to a theme with a white background. He had to edit every single paragraph in his blog by hand to override the code he’d put in.

    Yes.

    Although now that seems to have sorted itself out. I had refreshed / re-previewed / etc multiple times with no change, but now the correct font is showing up.
