Font Family Samples

[MICHAEL HOLLAND]

Hi

There are so many fonts that I’ve never heard of in Typography. How about having the font names in the drop down box spelled out in the way they would actually look on a page?

Thanks
Great Theme

Hi there,

I’ve thought of doing that, but I think it would take up a lot of resources in the Customizer and might slow down performance considerably.

All of those fonts are pulled from http://google.com/fonts – so it’s best to browse there until you find the font you want, and then find it in the list.

Let me know if you have any questions 🙂

Thanks!

I’d really like to use the font Palanquin which is one of the Google fonts, but missing in GeneratePress.

Maybe that could be fixed…

You can add it to GP like this:

add_filter( 'generate_typography_customize_list', function( $fonts ) {
	$fonts[ 'palanquin' ] = array( 
		'name' => 'Palanquin',
		'variants' => array( '100', '200', '300', '400', '500', '600', '700' ),
		'category' => 'sans-serif'
	);
	
	return $fonts;
} );

Would be good to have a list of all the fonts in Generatepress and a sample of what it looks like in the documentation.

Hi there,

all of the default Fonts in the Customizer are Google Fonts:

https://fonts.google.com

We try to maintain the most popular 200 fonts from the 1,000+ fonts available.

When selecting fonts it is better to use Google.
If its not in our list, this article explains on how to add them:
