Hi,

I want to change a body of text to a Google Font, but nothing I’m trying is working. I currently have this code in the ‘STYLE’ section of the element. .css-selector { font-family: 'Special Elite', serif;}

Can you give me a better solution?

Thank you,

[Lely]

Hi there,

You seem to have missed posting the URL of your website.

Kindly provide us with it so that we could check.

Sorry about that. It’s http://www.lovetm.com

Hi there,

Please try: .css-selector { font-family: 'Special Elite', serif !important;}

Hope this helps.

Hello,

I assume this is to be put in the STYLE section? It does not work for me.

Hi there,

If you want to add it in the style field of an element, you will just need to add font-family: 'Special Elite', serif !important; but if you need to target a CSS class, then you can add this in the CSS customizer:

.css-selector { font-family: 'Special Elite', serif !important;}

Hope this helps.

Hello.
I also want to add this font to my block-quote. I copied in what you put above (‘Special Elite’, serif !important;) and though the font looks similar it doesn’t seem quite right.

This is what i have;

and this is the style I want (not to worry about the colour)

Sorry, meant this

Hi Phillip,

You only need to add this font-family: 'Special Elite', serif !important; in the style field of your element.

Not the whole .css-selector { font-family: 'Special Elite', serif !important;}

Thanks

Thanks Paul
I added that code in customizer/custom/edit global css;

.x-blockquote {
font-family: ‘Special Elite’, serif !important;
font-size: 24px;
color: #2F4F4F;
font-style: italic;

but the result, though similar to what I want doesn’t appear the same (it’s too neat) as in the orange on black example given earlier. In that example, the text looks ‘gnarled’ and ‘lumpy’. That’s the look I want.

Hi There,

Would you mind sharing us the URL where you get the screenshot below? So we can inspect if that text is using the “Special Elite” font.

In plain view the strokes are the same with your last screenshots, its just on your last screenshot the fonts are big so we can clearly see the white grunge.

Thanks.

[goughs]

Sure, thanks Friech.
It is my website http://www.bkintentionalcommunity.org

I created the logo using Google Drawings. I found the font in the font list there.
Regards
Phillip

Hi Philip,

I don’t see this in your homepage.

Can you provide us the exact url of the page where we can see it.

I can only see this in your homepage
