Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
The Google font I've chosen is not working after I follow those instructions...
Can anyone give me an example forum of working Google font enabled?
*I put codes in Javascript and CSS showed on Google Webfonts page*

The first code in the post above needs go in an announcement or widget, not JavaScript management. Or it can go in JavaScript management, but the script tags will need removed.

Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
Hi,
You can change the fonts super easily via: Admin panel >> Display Colours > Fonts
@Niko LG, adikz, learn the admin panel, no script was needed!!

But if you want some fonts that look great,you need to find it at google web fonts. Just my opinion.
Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
Guy's i think he is looking for font that he can use in topics ... like ->
Georgia
Arial Black
and others ...
Georgia
Arial Black
and others ...

I've started using Forumotion approximately 4 years ago, thanks for your guys help but I haven't get my satisfied answer yet >o<
I don't know why but Google fonts aren't working on my forum, I'll mark this as solved after I figure out how it works
Yep, you got thatLGforum wrote:I assumed he would be wanting new fonts, fancier fonts.
Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
Maybe we are misunderstanding the question: are you wanting to add fonts to the drop-down menu?

Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
You can add the new fancy fonts in those boxes, yes. the one on the front is the default font the rest are incase the primary font/the one before it isn't known to the user's PC, as in, they don't have the font file on their PC/laptop.
I also remember a tutorial to add font's to the drop down box but can't find it, guess Ill make one shortly.

Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
No, you didn't misunderstand, I want other fonts displaying when we post topics or replies.slg wrote:Maybe we are misunderstanding the question: are you wanting to add fonts to the drop-down menu?
For example, fonts like this http://www.dafont.com/mael.font make it to become my default font for all posts
OR can I make just code like
- Code:
[font=Mael]bla bla bla[/font]
No...I'm very sorry because I'm not good on explanation but I never mentioned about menus...Darren1 wrote:You can add the new fancy fonts in those boxes, yes. the one on the front is the default font the rest are incase the primary font/the one before it isn't known to the user's PC, as in, they don't have the font file on their PC/laptop.

And yes if the drop down menu like we can get new fonts from here (where we post topics and replies)
Is that possible?
Kindly reply
Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
Yes your best way is using google fonts. put the script in your page then you can use that font by defining it in the CSS. So if you add a google web font called 'jahooly', then in the CSS you can now use that font like any other.
- Code:
body {
font: jahooly;
}

Re: Importing or add fonts into forum
No it won't add it to the menu, thats not what the OP is asking. The OP has never mentioned the menu in the editor...
He just wants to use a new font as the default font in posts.
Therefore, to the OP, you need to add the Google Web Font, with the script provided by Google. That makes the font available for use in the CSS.
In which case you would be able to change the font of posts with this css:
Again, so people understand, adding Google Web Fonts, makes a new font available for use, it does not affect your editors or anything else... it simply makes a new font available to use in your CSS or in style tags etc, as the browser will now know how to render that font.
