Problem with using Google Fonts in About Block
-
Hi there,
I am designing a new blog and I’m using your template blocks for one of the pages I am doing and I have come across a problem I cannot seem to fix. I don’t know if it’s a glitch or that I should have something installed on my blog to make it work. Let me explain further below;
I created a new page and then choose a template block from your list of options, for this specific page I selected the About block. I then started to edit it to get it to look how I wanted using the options that show under the block section. I am having a problem with doing a specific task within this block and this is what I need your help with. What I want to do is change the font for the item title so I do the following steps within the edit page option when I select the block. General>Block Items>Style>Item Title>Typography and this is when I am then displayed with the options to change the font for this section and this is where my problem is.
Under Typography there are several sections, the first one being Font type where you can choose from default, system and google and I selected Google. The next section is Google Fonts and in the drop down menu you have a lot to choose from. I select one suitable for the look I am going for, in this case its a font called Wallpoet and in my post edit section I see to the left hand side I can actually see the font change and it looks great. All sounds good yes? Well as soon as I press preview so I can view the page properly it shows the default text and not the google font I choose even though I check back under the right section for the block and it’s all appropriately selected. I don’t understand as if I select system instead and then choose a font and do the same action of previewing the page it changes the font then no problem. I even tried publishing the page to see if that would make any difference but it doesn’t ?? so the only thing I can think of is it’s related to choosing Google Fonts as it doesn’t matter what font I pick it does not show up when I do the preview page or publish the page, yet it does show up at the part on the left hand side where you see an instant preview of your content if you know what I mean?
Do I need to install anything specific to make google fonts work or is this an issue with your plugin? I’d appreciate any help you can give me as I don’t know what to do next as I haven’t noticed any other problems using your blocks and the sections to edit them, it just seems related to the font part.
Just to let you know I haven’t included a link to the page I need help with as my blog isn’t live yet so I have an under construction page so that’s all you’d see if you visited the site. If you need access to my blog please let me know and I can create a user login for you so you can bypass the under construction section that any normal visitor will see.
Let me know if you need any other information to be able to help me. I will just add this is a completely new blog install and the software is completely up to date.
Kind Regards
Rosie
