How can I change the collection description font type? (Studio Theme)

, , ,

Topic summary

A user wants to change their collection description font to Montserrat in the Studio theme but lacks CSS experience.

Initial Solution Attempt:

  • Another user provided CSS code to be added to the password.liquid file above the </body> tag
  • This approach included a code snippet (visible in a screenshot) but did not work for the original poster

Correction & Alternative Approaches:

  • The helper corrected their instructions, advising to delete the code from password.liquid and instead add it to theme.liquid
  • A third participant suggested two options:
    1. Manually loading Montserrat font via theme code (offered step-by-step guidance)
    2. Using Shopify apps like “Fontify” or “Custom Font Uploader” for a no-code solution

Current Status:
The issue remains unresolved. The corrected code placement has been suggested but not yet tested or confirmed to work.

Hi there! — you can change the font of your collection description to Montserrat, but it does require a small tweak to your theme settings.

Here’s the general idea:

You need to load the Montserrat font into your theme — this is done by adding a small link in the theme’s code.

Then you need to tell your store to use that font for the collection description — again, just a small line of code added in the right place.

If you’re not comfortable editing code, no worries — you can either:

Use the “Edit code” option in your theme to paste in the necessary font and style (I can guide you step-by-step if you like), or

Use a Shopify app like “Fontify” or “Custom Font Uploader” which makes it easier to change fonts without touching code.

Let me know if you need help with the tweaks, I will be happy to help!
