Add fonts in X+

[Christen]

I am using the most current versions of Weaver Extreme and Plus (WE+)

I will be installing museo300, museo_sans300 and museo_sans300_italic which are from Fontspring – their instructions are to install them in the …/wp-includes/fonts/museo300 (a fonts folder already exists in wp-includes)

this confused me…

the WE+ help pages say to install here …/wp-contents/uploads/fonts/ “font-family name”

please confirm that I should upload all 6 files for each font to the following file paths:

…/wp-contents/uploads/fonts/museo300

…/wp-contents/uploads/fonts/museo_sans300

…/wp-contents/uploads/fonts/museo_sans300_italic

and then, one font family at a time, in the WE+ Main Options: Custom tab, in Box 1, 

I ignore the dropdown menu,

and, in item #2 I add the links

<link href=’/wp-content/uploads/fonts/museo300/stylesheet.css’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’> 

<link href=’/wp-content/uploads/fonts/museo_sans300/stylesheet.css’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’> 

<link href=’/wp-content/uploads/fonts/museo_sans300_italic/stylesheet.css’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’>

and in item #3 I add  the font family and fallback codes

font-family: ‘museo300’ ‘arial’, ‘sans serif’;

font-family: ‘museo_sans300’, ‘arial’, ‘sans serif’;

font-family: ‘museo_sans300_italic’;

clicking Save family after each…

Then, they will appear in the font dropdown menus…

do I have to do anything with the stylesheet files beyond leaving them in their font folders?

Thanks!

(nervous doing something new)

You will need to add each pair of link / font-family separately – 3 times.

But you also may need to add an http://yoursite.com in front of the /wp-content/and-so-on, but start without that. We’ve just had some reports that that plain /wp-content doesn’t work, but it should.

The font .css files will usually have a link to the actual font files, and those will have to be set up correctly – which usually means having the .css file and the font files in the same directory.

I added each pair separately and it all appears to be working just fine 

Thanks!!
