  • hi there,
    I really don’t understand the way the typography works.

    I can change some in the “Nice theme typography panel” but not all.
    I would like to change CSS (h1 to h6), change the font of the buttons, change the color of the food categories, … But where o where can i do this?

    Thanks for the support!

    Hi Cedric,

    Thanks for writing.

    Unfortunately at the moment, there’s no typography option for the Headings on this theme. What you can do, at this moment, and in order to get this solved, would be using your own CSS.

    For example:

    h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
        font-family: 'Lato', arial;
    }
    

    Best,
    Juan.

    ok, i can works with this.
    But it took a lot of time to figure out that the menu category is described as
    .menu-box h2.menu-category
    and so on. But ok, i’ll figure it all out.

    One thing about the typography:
    Even that i changed all typography in the theme option settings to PT sans and Michroma, sometimes the font “serif” is used.
    f.e.:
    – the feedback body text
    – the submit button
    – below a post: About “Author”, View all posts by “author” →,

    It’s true that i can fix this with custom CSS but it should be correct. I paid for this.
    And it’s also a bit misleading that you make an example post in your BBQ demo that shows all CSS examples (Another Post with Everything In It) when there’s no typography option for the Headings on this theme. Don’t you agree?

    Hi Cedric,

    Thanks for your response.

    With regards to the “serif” incident, would you please send me a link to the feedback body text?
    We’ll be reviewing the button problem. By now you can add the following CSS:

    input[type="submit"], button, #commentform .button, #respond input[type="submit"], .nice-contact-form input[type="submit"] {
        font-family: 'PT Sans';
    }
    

    I can see the post author is set to PT sans, is that ok?

    We’ll be reviewing the incidents you requested.

    Thank you,
    Juan.

    Hi,

    Here are the links:
    Feedback:
    http://wp.bistrodewaterkant.be/contact/gastenboek/
    Author info:
    http://wp.bistrodewaterkant.be/welkom-op-onze-nieuwe-site/

    But i think i know what the problem is.
    Is it possible you defined in your css that the styles who use serif should be the same as a header or title but in bold or Italic?
    That should explain it because my title font is Michroma and doesn’t have a bold or italic version.
    Does this help?

    hi Juan,

    about the button: works perfect with the workaround (i even changed the button color).

    But if i look closer with “whatfont” (http://chengyinliu.com/whatfont.html) i see a lot of font “errors”.
    Please check this pics:
    http://temp.bistrodewaterkant.be/screenshot1.png
    (which is this page: http://wp.bistrodewaterkant.be/welkom-op-onze-nieuwe-site/)
    http://temp.bistrodewaterkant.be/screenshot2.png
    (which is this page: http://wp.bistrodewaterkant.be/nieuws/)

    So not only “serif” is used but also “sans serif”.
    And if you look at the info in black boxes you can see he still tries “Gudea” and “Bree Serif”.
    The standard fonts of this team if i’m not mistaken.

    I’m not trying to be difficult. I just want to help you make this fine theme great!
    thanks in advance

    Hello Cedric,

    Thanks for sharing the links. We’ll investigate this.

    Best,
    Juan.

    Hi Cedric,

    Thanks for your patience.

    We’ve released a new version of the theme that includes typography selection for these items and “Primary” and “Secondary” font for the elements that do not fit on other options. This way we’ve fixed the typography issue which you described.

    Best,
    Juan.

    hi Juan,

    Hi Cedric,

    You’ll find the latest version of the theme in the Downloads section of your ThemeForest account.

    Best,

    Andrés.

    hi Andrès,
    thanks it worked!

    hi Juan,

    thanks for the theme update. i changed my custom CSS so your theme changes could take over.
    I still have a couple problems:
    1) Still one place where the standard font is still used.
    for example: http://wp.bistrodewaterkant.be/little-miracles/
    Look at the text: “Bekijk alle berichten van bistro de waterkant →”
    (translated: “View all messages off…”

    2) menulist is capitalised
    Please look at http://wp.bistrodewaterkant.be/eten/
    On the left you can see the food categories in a list. I don’t want them to be capitalized.
    Because in Dutch you never write the “t” in “Specialiteit van ‘t huis” as a capital.
    I looked of it in the style.css and i even changed all entries (in the custom CSS) with a capitalize text-transform to “lowercase”. But i can’t figure out how to change this.

    Can you point the line in style.css what defines the capitalize?
    I thought it was line 1551:
    body.tax-menu-category #sidebar ul .category-item a { display: block; padding: 8px 0; text-transform: capitalize; border: none; }
    But that doesn’t do it.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Cedric,

    Thanks for the follow up.

    We’re gonna need to fix the font family regarding your first point for a future update of the theme, but meanwhile you can solve your two issues adding the following CSS in Theme Options > Design & Styles > Custom CSS:

    #post-author .profile-link {
      font-family: inherit;
    }
    
    body.page-template-template-menu-list-php #sidebar ul .category-item a, body.tax-menu-category #sidebar ul .category-item a {
      text-transform: none;
    }
    

    Hope this helps.

    Best,

    Andrés.

    Hi Andrés,

    that does the trick!
    Thanks

    PS.: thumbs up for nicethemes support!

    hi guys,

    i have another weird thing. Please take a look at:
    http://wp.bistrodewaterkant.be/eten/
    and click on a menu category on the left.
    The site navigates to the correct info on the page.
    BUT just below the title!?

    I checked it on my BBQ theme testsite:
    http://bdw.c3.nu/?page_id=53
    and here it’s correct.

    Is it possible that changing the font causes this?
    And how can i fix this?
    Thanks in advance
