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.

Thanks Mooeed for the quick reply! Unfortunately it is still unchanged (please see below)

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!

ah my bad, please delete the code from password.liquid file and add it into theme.liquid file
