[Resolved] Fonts available in text editor

[CRISTO]

Not sure if this is a WP question of GP. I have a blog on WordPress (not using GP) and when I click the text editor I get a selection of fonts and sizes.

But on my GP site when I click the text editor it gives me heading 1, heading 2, etc. I want the editor that gives me a choice of font like I have on my blog.

Hi Christo,

The font of blog is in inherited from the body of the site.
You can change it in Customizer > Typography > Body.
If you want a different font for the blog than the rest of the site then try this CSS:

.entry-content {
    font-family: "Nunito";
}

Let me know.

Thanks, Leo. But that is not quite what I am needing. I want to be able to change fonts within a page…I can do that easily in my WordPress blog. Since I am a novice, I am not sure I am putting this the right way. I have a screenshot of what I want (taken from my blog) if that would help.

[Leo]

Yes a screenshot of what you want would definitely be helpful. Are you able to upload it to somewhere and share the link there?

[CRISTO]

OK, here is where I reveal my ignorance….I took the screenshot but don’t know how to upload it. It says it was saved to One Drive. Don’t know how to send a link. It just opens up in photoshop and I don’t know where to go from there.

I just sent you a screen shot on support@generatepress.com Only way I could figure out how to do it.

Looks like you’re using a plugin on that site that gives you font family options in the editor – you’ll need to figure out which plugin and install it on your other site.

A word of caution, too many fonts can get very messy over time, and can cause performance issues if they’re Google fonts.

[CRISTO]

I agree…I only use two basic fonts in my website. I think the problem may be that I did not properly install the premium version. I will send a screen shot via email. I don’t see an option to change fonts, sizes, etc. So I think I did something wrong on my end.

[CRISTO]

Headed out for the day….giving you a break!

[Leo]

Can you make sure the add-ons are activated as #4 on this page? https://docs.generatepress.com/article/installing-gp-premium/

[Tom]

The font family options in the actual WordPress editor aren’t a part of GeneratePress or GP Premium.

Maybe it’s this plugin?: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/tinymce-advanced/

[CRISTO]

You were right, I added the the tinymce and that is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.
