    Hello,

    Hope all is well. I am looking to change the fonts to a custom font. My work in progress is https://www.jessesans.com/wordpress

    I would like to change all the fonts to FF DIN for example. I have the open type files and web fonts, but am not sure how to upload them and add the correct CSS to change the fonts from defaults to a custom font.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Gratefully,

    J

    If you’re using Google fonts you need to enqueue the stylesheet to it in your functions.php file, e.g.

    /**
 * Proper way to enqueue styles
 */
function custom_fonts() {
	wp_enqueue_style( 'jim-nightshade', 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Jim+Nightshade' );
}

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_fonts' );

    Then use the font family in your Child Theme style.css file, e.g.

    .main-navigation a {
 font-family: 'Jim Nightshade', cursive;
}
