  I just switched themes and the font for the header i had has disappeared, can’t see an option to change it. I can change fonts for “headings”, I can change the header image, but don’t see an option to change the font for the title.

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

  Hi there,

  Each theme at WordPress.com has slightly different options for customizing the theme, including where custom fonts appear in the theme. In the Twenty Ten theme you’re using now, the “Headings” font will control the font for the site title and for other headings in the theme (such as post titles, widget titles, and menu items).

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that! :)

  Is there a way to determine that before the switch? I’ll probably search for another theme now.

  Hi there,

  You’re welcome to try out any theme before you switch to it on your blog. You can search for new themes under Appearance > Themes in your dashboard. Under the theme, you can click the “Live Preview” link to preview your blog with that theme and customize it. In the customizer, you can select a custom font for the headings and body text and see how they work in that theme. If you like it, you can click Activate to switch to that customized theme on your blog; otherwise, you can click Cancel to go back to the theme search page.

  We also have more information about how custom fonts work here: Custom Fonts

  Let me know if you have any other questions!
