Hi
How can I add a self created web font in “font family options”?
Thanks

@harald-poehlandbluewin-ch: For custom fonts you will need to create a child theme and upload the fonts yo your child themes folder and apply the fonts to the desired areas. Let me know if you are comfortable with child theme customization. I will assist you through the process. If you cannot work with child theme I recommend you to seek professional help of an expert.

Hello Tikaram

Thank you for responding.

I created a child theme and activated it successfully. However, it does not look very good if I go into “customize”.
If you can guide me through the process that would be awesome.

I have the following in this rock-star-pro-child directory:
– A folder named “fonts” containing the converted webfonts from (https://www.fontsquirrel.com)
– A style.css
– A functions.php

Kind regards
Harry

PS: I tried to add the contents of the style and functions files, but that was blocked.

@harald-poehlandbluewin-ch: You have mentioned that it doesn’t look good when you go into the customize, can you please explain the exact issue that you are facing after creating the child theme. The child theme is not supposed to change the behavior of the customize area, Please let me know so that I can guide you through the process.

Regards,
Tikaram

Apparently, I don’t know how to properly address the css files in the functions.php of the child theme.
I am not a code writer per se, but I guess with a little help from you I’ll manage to get this done?

// Place all your custom functions below this line.

// add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘rock_star_pro_child_styles’ );
// function rock_star_pro_child_enqueue_styles() {
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/rtl.css’ );
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/css/about-admin.css’ );
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/css/customizer.css’ );
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/css/editor-style.css’ );
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/css/widgets.css’ );
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/css/colors/light.css’ );
// wp_enqueue_style( ‘rock-star-pro-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/css/genericons/genericons.css’ );
//}

Never mind. I meanwhile figured it out on my own.
I do have a comment though about the typography in the styles.css:
It would be great if for example the menu font and the tagline font variables would be clearly visible under “Typography”, but they are elsewhere.
There are some like “i”, “adress” etc. I have now clue where they actually show.
Nevertheless, overall I like the theme.

Harry
