Add a custom fontUpdated 17 days ago

Important note: Any adjustments you make in the code of a theme will be lost when updating. So if you use a custom font you will need to repeat these steps whenever you update your theme.


Adding a custom font to the theme requires some minor code modifications. 

Step 1: Go to the code editor

Online Store > Themes > ... Next to the Customize button > Edit Code

Step 2: Upload your font in the assets folder

Drag your .oft and .woff file into the assets folder.


Step 3: Add the font to the fonts.liquid

At the top, search for fonts.liquid and open it.

Paste this snippet under  {%- style -%} :

@font-face {

    font-family: 'MyFont';

    src: url({{ 'MyFont.woff' | asset_url }}) format('woff'), 

    url({{ 'Malvides.otf'  | asset_url }}) format('opentype'); 

    font-weight: 400;

    font-style: normal;

    font-display: swap;

  }

Replace "MyFont" with the name of your font file.


Step 4: Add the font to the css

Search at the top for base-style.css and open it.

Add this line just below :root { , and adjust the font name as used in step 3:

 --ff-secondary: 'MyFont', sans-serif;

Save everything and enjoy your new font!
