Font Weights Not Working via Font Manager

[weribinc]

Hi there,

I am trying to set headlines to different font weights. Please see the video I recorded here: https://youtu.be/81muH-m7jbM

I have already tried the solution called out here: https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/font-weights-not-working/16171/4

Please help. I have spent over an hour trying to change font weights via CSS to no avail.

Hi There,

Thanks for writing in! I have tested this on my end. Basically once you set a font with different font weights.

You can access those information and set within your Cornerstone elements.

If you don’t see the changes, most probably it could be due to caching. If you’re using a caching plugin on your server, purge your server cache. Then clear your browser cache and test for changes.

Also make sure that you’re fully updated by following this guide (https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/troubleshooting-version-compatibility/195).

Further if you’re using custom CSS rules, try removing them temporarily and test this issue again.

If you need further assistance, provide us with your login credentials in a secure note so that we can look into your issue.

Thanks!

This solves the issue, sort of, but it doesn’t allow me to use H1 or H2 tags (etc.) without the formatting getting all weird. Is there an alternate way?

Hi @weribinc,

Seems to be okay on my end, the formatting that I see is font size related. I recommend changing the font to Heading, font weight to bold, set it’s tag to h1, then font size to 400% (6em) (default size for h1). Then click the Save Preset, and once you add a new headline you can simply click Apply Preset, and apply the preset you saved for H1.

This is different from classic headline where you can choose display as h1, where the size is static/unchangeable. With v2 element, you’ll decide the exact size that you wish to apply.

h2 = 285.7%
h3 = 228.5%
h4 = 171.4%

Now, since percentage size is not possible, let’s convert it to EM (1.5em based size).

h1 = 400% x 1.5 = 6em

Then you can set the font size to 6em for h1 then save it as preset. I again, this is only based on headline’s based font size which means, you’re the one to decide which final headline size.

Thanks!
