    First things first: thank you Anders Norén for this theme!

    I think I’ll update my website, at last. Since I’m a brand designer and not a dev, I’ve been looking for years for an elegant solution I can customize without getting crazy ??

    And your theme is super super elegant.

    I have just created a child theme using Child Theme Configurator.
    I’ve added the LINK tag into the header.php of my child theme.
    I’ve also tried — with no success — to find the code I need to change — if possibile, of course — to avoid loading fonts from Google and the code I have to change to avoid CSS using those google fonts (I’ll then add mine, for using Fontstand’s fonts).

    Thanks!

    I’ve partially found a way:

    1) I’ve added a LINK tag into header.php (child theme folder) to download the fonts I need from Fontstand

    2) I’ve used Appearance → Customize → Fonts to customize body & headers fonts. I haven’s tried it yet, but I suppose I can customize fonts for other tags — blockquote, mainly — just adding some code to mu child theme CSS style.

    3) the only thing I still need to find a solution for is to avoid the download of Google web fonts. Non existent ones, in fact. Since the theme is now using font names set in Appearance → Customize → Fonts, but those names are those of Fontstand’s web fonts, not of Google web fonts ??

    Anyway, this theme is just great!
    Have I already told you? ??

    Best,

    Solved.
    I’ve just found that with no Body & Headings font selected, there’s no output of any code for Google web fonts loading. So I opted to use CSS and not this feature to set my fonts from Fontstand.
