Changing Blog Post Title Font, Button Font & Summary Block

Recommended Posts

Posted

I have successfully uploaded Avenir as the font to be used on my website and have changed h1, h2, h3 and h4 to this font. However, I can't figure out the code to change the font of blog post titles, buttons and blog post titles in the summary blocks. 

I am using the template Merida. My site URL (for now) is https://goose-alpaca-n3cy.squarespace.com/ 

Thank you! 🙂

for some reason, the period in the CSS turns my CSS grey (from my coding days in college I know that means it isn't linking correctly) so i take the period out so it reads:

 

h1 blog-title a {
    font-family: fontname !important;
}

 

but it still isn't working. Any suggestions?

I also am looking to change my button font and navigation font and can't seem to find the right CSS code for that either. I'm in Squarespace 7.1 (using the Hester template which I don't think matters for this version)

 

Any insight?

Thanks so much! That worked for the summary block. I did post the other screenshots but I will post again, sorry!

div#page-section-5ddcc7682e47f65be3580b0b .sqs-block-button-element {
    font-family: font-name;
}
div#page-section-5de6f19aa6c1497f49b6e6ab h2 {
    font-family: font-name;
}

 

Neither of these worked for me unfortunately

try adding !important, eg: font-family: font-name !important;

remember replacing font-name with your font

Still no luck with either unfortunately

i'm trying to do the same thing- change the font to a custom font on the blog excerpt preview area.  I have the font changed already once you click into the post but not on the preview section. I tried the code given but it didn't work for me.  Any tips?

attaching the preview section and then the same thing when you click the link to get you into the post.
