Advanced Website: Add Custom Fonts

Have more questions? Submit a request

You can add custom fonts from the Google fonts library or by uploading custom font files (TTF, OTF, EOT, or WOFF).

Tip:

For best performance, it is recommended to use WOFF or WOFF2 files when adding custom fonts.

Note:

To maintain GDPR compliance, custom fonts are loaded from our CDN without the need to call the Google Fonts API.

Add Custom Fonts

To add custom fonts to your site:

  1. You can add custom fonts from any of the following locations:
    • In the side panel, click Theme, and then click Text. Expand the desired text section. Next to the font list, click the Add & Manage Fonts button.
    • From the new text editor, click the fonts list and then click Manage Fonts.
    • From the design editor of a widget, for any text element click the Add & Manage Fonts button.
  2. You have the following options:
    • Google fonts. Select a font from the Google fonts list. The font appears in the Added Google Fonts list below. To remove a font, click the X next to the font in the list.
      • Please note that the list may already display fonts added to the template. It is recommended you do not remove the template fonts.
    • Custom fonts. Click Upload fonts to upload a custom font file. Multiple fonts may be selected at one time. To remove a font, click the X next to the font in the list.
  3. Click Done.

The font is added to the fonts list across the site. To see a list of the default fonts available, see the Fonts Library.

Note:

Adobe fonts do not appear in the fonts list. You need to add the font family to the code.

Remove Custom Fonts

To remove custom fonts from a site:

  1. In the side panel, click Theme, and then click Text. Expand the text section that uses the custom font. Next to the font list, click the Add & Manage Fonts button.
    Alternatively, click text anywhere in the site and at the top of the font list, click Manage Fonts.
  2. Click the X next to the font in the list to remove the font from the site.
    • When a font is removed that is in use on the site, we revert to the browser's default font.
    • If you remove a Google font, you must republish the site for the change to take effect.
    • If you remove an uploaded font, there is no need to republish for the change to take effect.

Note:

  • Default fonts cannot be removed from the fonts list.
  • Saving a site as a template includes any custom fonts that have been added.
  • Custom fonts are removed when you choose to reset a site.
