    Hi!

    I have difficulty loading fonts from Typekit using the extension. At first the extension seemed to work and I could change the brand name and a new h2 font but it appears it stopped working. I have published the fonts of course but they don’t show up in the font list. Can you pls have a look?

    Best,

    Hi there,

    Thanks for writing in! I can see you have defined two font family for the brand text and one of them seems working – http://prntscr.com/anmz3h

    Kindly check that and let us know which font-family you are trying to use and remove conflicting CSS for the same class.

    Cheers!

    I tried changing h2 in the Theme => Customize => Typography to Verveine. The first one (for brand) was set up and worked as I mentioned above (maybe because I have an embed code for it in the Custom,but as I understand that is exactly what we can avoid doing by using the extension?).

    Hi there,

    Thanks for updating. You can’t control these by the extensions because you are defining the font-family in Custom CSS maybe. However if you need to override any font-family then you can use !important tag : 

    .x-brand.text{
  font-family: "Verveine"!important;
}

    Hope this makes sense.

    Cheers!

    Hi!

    Not really! 🙁 It seems you have difficulty understanding what it is I need help with and it was NOT changing the font for .x-brand because it is something that I’ve done already and that is working.

    I solved the problem by opening the Typekit extension and clicking Refresh. I salute your fast replies and the willingness to help but have a feeling that you haven’t taken the time to really understand what the reported problem was about, hence the wasted on both sides time. Thanks again!

    Hi,

    We’re sorry that you feel that way. The code given above was just an example on how to override a font by adding !important.

    Anyway we are glad that you were able to figure it out.

    Have a great day!
