Additional Google Web Fonts

[lunarstudio 0]

Is there a way to add additional Google Web Fonts to the pro version? If not, do you plan on allowing us to do so in the future?

Yes, there is even an example you can copy in functions.php: [code] // FILTERS EXAMPLE ---------// // The following filter will add the font Ubuntu into the font array $thefoundry. // This makes the font available to the framework and the user via the admin panel. //add_filter ( 'pagelines_foundry', 'my_google_font' ); function my_google_font( $thefoundry ) { $myfont = array( 'Ubuntu' => array( 'name' => 'Ubuntu', 'family' => '"Ubuntu", arial, serif', 'web_safe' => true, 'google' => true, 'monospace' => false ) ); return array_merge( $thefoundry, $myfont ); } [/code]

So if we wanted to add multiple fonts - let's say ALL of them, would I just repeat this or is something bad going to happen?

i have the same question -- though I'm not sure where I am pasting this code. i keep getting errors if I modify /platformbase/functions.php

Basically you would need to load each one into the array, but why in the world would you want all of them?

For convenience and to play around with how something looks.

Pross was trying, I think, to make the point that the more you have, the slower your system will function.

I'm having the same problem. When I paste into platformbase I get errors. Where should this code be placed? Thanks

Where in the functions.php file are you pasting the code?

[xeroboundaries 0]

I am pasting into functions.php in base (the same time that I found the code snippet that's listed above). Should I be pasting into Platform Pro's functions.php?

[catrina 103]

No, the functions.php file in base is where you should paste it. Where in the file did you paste it? It should be at the very bottom of the file.

If I add: add_filter ( 'pagelines_foundry', 'my_google_font' ); function my_google_font( $thefoundry ) { $myfont = array( 'Ubuntu' => array( 'name' => 'Ubuntu', 'family' => '"Ubuntu", arial, serif', 'web_safe' => true, 'google' => true, 'monospace' => false ) ); return array_merge( $thefoundry, $myfont ); } to the bottom of my functions.php page in base, the font, Ubuntu, does not appear in Platform Pro's typography section. That being said, I do not get any errors anymore, it just doesn't work. Jack

Have you tried replacing Ubuntu with a different Google Web Font to see if another one works?

[xeroboundaries 0]

I have the following pasted at the end of functions.php in base: add_filter ( 'pagelines_foundry', 'my_google_font' ); function my_google_font( $thefoundry ) { $myfont = array( 'Terminal Dosis' => array( 'name' => 'Terminal Dosis', 'family' => '"Terminal Dosis", arial, serif', 'web_safe' => true, 'google' => true, 'monospace' => false ) ); return array_merge( $thefoundry, $myfont ); } Not showing up under PlatformPro typography panel.

So I found that if I activate the base theme, the font will appear on the list, but I lose a lot of the settings that I set up using Platform Pro. Is there a way to get my custom hooks from base to carry over to platform pro without needing to keep the base them active (really just worried about this font for now)? Thanks

You must have PlatformBase activated in order for its functions.php to.. function. Just export your PlatformPro settings then import them into PlatformBase. Keep PlatformBase active at all time.

Will do. Thanks! Jack
