I've never used a Font Squirrel font kit before, but based off of what you're showing, you just need to add the 'BankGothicMdBTMedium' font name into the font stack for any CSS items you want to use this font.

Not to assume you don't know this, but just in case:
In CSS, the font stack is the hierarchical listing of fonts you want an item to use... providing a list of fall-back fonts in case the user's computer doesn't have your first-choice font installed. They usually look something like this:



This tells the browser to load "Arial" as the font. If the browser can't find Arial installed, it will then try "Helvetica Neue", then "Helvetica" and will finally just use whatever font it has been assigned to use as a "sans-serif" font. Notice that font names that are more than a single word are enclosed in quotes.

SO... you could edit the "Main.css" file of your theme to put 'BankGothicMdBTMedium' as the first font in the comma-separated list of fonts. You could do that on the "body" tag and it would affect everything... but you may want to "contain" it by looking at the structure of your site (if you have Firefox, get the Firebug Add-On and you can use that to inspect the structure of your site to get an idea of the element(s) you want to affect) and adding the font-family declaration to a different element... like "#page" or something like that (many themes/designs have a div that contains the content, often to set the width and center it on the screen... this is a good candidate to target, as applying the font to the "body" tag can have some impact on page loading speed and could affect the Concrete 5 interface items, too.

Hope this helps!

I'd pretty much Gotten that far in that I was looking for a stack but when I couldn't find one for dark chocolate I was stonewalled. I've no idea where the theme stack is. It's not in the main.css or the typography.css so where have they hidden it lol

Great advise though I really appreciate you responding and giving your time on this.

I tried calling the font using HTML, php and CSS in content to no avail also in 4 browsers. 5 if you include the iPhone lol.

Hmmm... when I look in the "main.css" file for the Dark Chocolate theme, the very first declaration is:


So... if you change the "font: normal normal 13px Arial;" to

"font: normal normal 13px 'BankGothicMdBTMedium', Arial;"

that should work.

If that doesn't work for you, can you post a link to your site so that I can take a look?

Reinstalled theme and found font stack in main.css so that was a start :-D Thanks


Heres my entire typography file

body {
/* customize_body */ font: normal normal 13px BankGothicMdBTMedium; /* customize_body */
/* customize_body */ color: #777777; /* customize_body */
line-height:18px;
}

img {border: 0px}
a,a:visited,a:active {
/* customize_link */ color: #614F3F; /* customize_link */
text-decoration:none;
}
a:hover {
/* customize_link_hover */ color: #81613F; /* customize_link_hover */ text-decoration:underline;
}

h1,h2,h3,h4,h5{ margin:0px 0px 4px 0px; padding:4px 0px; margin-top:8px }
h1{ font: normal normal 21px BankGothicMdBTMedium; line-height:28px }
h2{ font-size:18px; line-height:24px }
h3{ font-size:16px; line-height:21px }
h4{ font-size:14px; line-height:18px }
h5{ font-size:13px; line-height:16px }
p{ padding:0px 0px 0px 0px; margin:0px 0px 12px 0px; }

Ive addedBankGothicBTMedium to the stack as i would normally... still no font lol

Try putting it in single quotes like this:


I'm not sure it matters, but it may be necessary if that's the way the font-squirrel font kit is referencing it.

Also... in looking closer at the @font-face rules from your fonts.css file... it looks like your src:url(); lines are a little messed up. Everything inside the parentheses for the src:url(); should be in quotes. So it should look like this:

Right now, all you have in quotes is the font file name... the whole path should be in quotes.

Also... the path MAY need to be relative to the fonts.css file, not absolute. So you may have to change that to this:

Since the fonts.css file and the font files are in the same folder.

And... it would be a big help to be able to actually see the site if you have a URL to it somewhere on the web. Being able to inspect the source code and use Firebug to look for files not loading, etc., is a big help in troubleshooting.

P.S... in the long run, you're going to NOT want to make edits to the core themes found in the "/concrete/themes" folder. Next time there's an upgrade/update to Concrete5, your changes could get overwritten. You should really copy the theme from there to the "/themes" folder... and rename it. Do a search on the forums here on how to do that and you should find loads of stuff.

Ive done a full fresh install to mess about on so i dont screww anything important up.

Thankyou again man

Thanks for the link!

Take a look in your theme's elements folder for the "header.php" file and double-check (then TRIPLE-check) what you put in for the line to add your fonts.css stylesheet. There must be an error, because this is what's showing up in your source:

Try putting this there instead:

I've done everything you suggesteted I don't see that it's made any difference. Has the error gone?

I really am greatfull. This has been doing my head in all day. I just can't seem to get it right.

Yea I spotted that just as I got the notification you'd replied lol. Thankyou sooo much you are a very clever gent. Consider your good deed for the day well and turkey done.

Dan

No problem. Glad it's working now.

And I know how you feel. I have days like that, too. Where it just feels like you can't get something that SEEMS reasonably simple to work. And you beat your head against it all day. For me, I usually find that I can fix it in like 10 seconds flat... the next day... after a good night's sleep! LOL!

Glad to be of help (I'm new enough on here myself that I've been TAKING a lot of assistance, so it's nice to be able to GIVE some now!).

Good luck with the site!
