Still trying to figure out how to add a font

Using Concrete / Help

I’m still trying to figure out how to add a font in the default theme (Atomik) of the current version (9.3.2) of Concrete so I can change styling on header tags to match my client’s branding w/a google font that closes matches their print materials. I’m tried modifying default.css, _variables.scss, and header_top.php. I’ve tried adding a new ‘presets’ folder, I’ve tried editing styles.xml. I’ve tried adding inline style to the headers in question. None of this has had any impact on my client’s staging site.

To be clear, I am not a developer. I’m a reasonably knowledgeable PM/Producer who doesn’t mind writing code. If anyone can point me in the direction of fairly simple directions for what should be a fairly simple process… I am most appreciative.

I am by no means married to Atomik, BTW. If there is another comparable theme that can accommodate font customization, I would love to hear about it. Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide some direction on this.

cheers,

You could try modifying the default.css file. See attached.

This is one of the things I tried.

I’m going to create a ‘clean’ instance of Concrete (minus the other work I’ve done for my client) and try it again. Thanks for the advice!

OK, on a clean instance of Concrete 9.32, @Steevb 's suggestion, in conjunction with making the same change in _variables.scss, resulted in the desired font change. Now I just need to replicate this on my client’s staging site.

Many thanks!
