Can I adjust the slider header font in the Athens theme?

Is it possible to change just the header/subheading font family tittle for the slider to ITC Avant Garde Gothic? I change it in the theme options but it changes all of the headings - i mainly just want to change the headings for the sliders if that’s possible.

Thanks for the response! It didn’t seem to work - turned the family into a random serif font :disappointed_face:

Hi @David123123 ,

This is Victor from PageFly - Shopify Page Builder App

I have checked your page source but didn’t find the font name: ITC Avant Garde Gothic

I’m so sorry to say this but if you want to use this font, you have to download it or import it to Shopify first

Please check this guide from Shopify to add font: Fonts

This guide already have the ITC Avant Garde Gothic font for you to select from it

Hope this can help you solve the issue.

I’m a bit confused on this - the ITC Avant Garde Gothic has the handle - what is that used for/as? On the theme I’m able to choose it but its not set? I’m not familiar with this.

@David123123

Please add the following code to your assets/section-slideshow.css bottom of the file.

body.template-index .slideshow-content-wrap .slideshow-heading,
  body.template-index .slideshow-content-wrap .slideshow-text{
    font-family: 'ITC Avant Garde Gothic' !important;
  }

Thanks!

I’m a bit lost, I want to use ITC avant Garde Gothic (it says its a shopify available font). On the documentation guide, I see a thing called “handles.” How do I use that for the font objects, etc. It’s a bit confusing for me I apologize.

Font handle to use on file settings_schema.json you need to know code to use this way

please read more on https://www.shopify.com/partners/blog/font-picker

So I recommend 3 options:

1/ Use third party hosted fonts

2/ Upload file to Assets

3/ Upload file to Files section of the Shopify admin

If you require any further information, feel free to contact me.

Hi @David123123 ,

It is not working because you haven’t added the font to your theme yet.
Please follow the link I sent above, Shopify has a guide to adding font to the theme.
I tried to help you with a step-by-step but it is required to upload the font to your local device.

Hope you can understand and this can help you solve the issue!
