How can you add a custom font to the new Squarespace Course section/chapter titles?

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi! I'm currently building my first course inside my site and I have custom fonts uploaded to Squarespace that I use throughout my site. I created a course page which is a new feature within Squarespace and was wondering how I can apply my custom fonts to the chapter titles/lesson titles? Right now they are assigned Mackinac Pro which is the site default font that's available right in Squarespace but I want to make it my brand's header font, GT Alpina.

Any code suggestions on how to do this? Would love to know how I can apply it to both the chapter titles and lesson titles.

Thanks!

Try this Custom CSS:

.course-list .course-list__list-course-item-lesson-name, .course-list .course-list__course-name, .course-list .course-list__list-chapter-item-chapter-name {
  font-family:'font-family-here';
}

Replace font-family-here with the correct name for the font family GT Alpina.

This worked great on the main course page, thank. you so much!! Do you know how I could also do the lesson title on the individual lesson pages too? Like when you click on a lesson, it'll bring you to another page but the font is still the system default font there.

Try this as well:

.course-item .course-item__intro .course-item__lesson-title {
  font-family:'font-family-here';
}

Thank you so much! Was wondering if you had code to adjust the fonts in the course side navigation menu as well?

Well then, you'll need these selectors as well!

.course-item .course-item__side-nav-chapter-header .course-item__side-nav-chapter-title, .course-item .course-item__side-nav-link .course-item__side-nav-link-title {
  font-family:'font-family-here';
}

}

You are amazing!! The only other area I still need the font is on the individual lesson pages- on the top of the lesson video it has the name of the course in the old font and I want it to be GT Alpina. 

Last one, I promise! Thank you so much for your help.

And this one!

.course-item .course-item__intro .course-item__chapter-title {
  font-family:'font-family-here';
}

If you can give my posts a like and mark as the solution that would be appreciated!

Combined changing Courses titles to custom font:

.course-item .course-item__intro .course-item__chapter-title, .course-item .course-item__side-nav-chapter-header .course-item__side-nav-chapter-title, .course-item .course-item__side-nav-link .course-item__side-nav-link-title, .course-item .course-item__intro .course-item__lesson-title, .course-list .course-list__list-course-item-lesson-name, .course-list .course-list__course-name, .course-list .course-list__list-chapter-item-chapter-name  {

Is there a chance you know how to selectively hide the course and lesson titles?! 

Mine are looking pretty messy and I'd like to remove all of them and just leave the little sidebar menu at the top without any of the other content.

}

Replace font-family-here with the correct name for the font family GT Alpina.

This worked great for the List view on Courses, but what about the grid view? How would I modify this code to use in the course Grid view?
