Community Events – Font + Spelling

[CDC]

For the community events page (‘Submit An Event’), is it possible to change the font of the form as well as the spelling of certain words to UK English (e.g. Organizer to Organiser).

For our website, we have implemented some coding so that fonts are from the Century Gothic family by default (as set by H1, H2 etc.) For the event submission page, some of the font is displayed in Century Gothic, in according with our website design and coding, but some of the text shows up in Arial – do we need to override something somewhere to make the whole form’s font consistent?

Thanks!

Hello @CDC,

Yes, that’s totally possible! You will want to locate the CSS classes for the elements where you would like to use your font (great article here on how to do that), then add your font styles to those elements in your theme’s style.css file or by using a plugin like Simple Custom CSS.

That would look something like:

.my-element {
font: "Century Gothic";
}

The spelling is possible as well. In fact, we have a nice write-up on that as well.

Will this help you get started? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
