I did read in the forums but didn’t see any other posts that answered my question about @font-face.

I have no problems adding a little custom code in response v 3.5 that adds custom font hosted on my server to work.

I have been trying half the day and with the same settings as I used on v3.5 but cannot get the font to work in v4.0.5 . Can you tell me if there is a reason for this not working in the updated version or if I need to put my @font-face code in a specific location? It has been driving me nuts all day!

Hi, what did you do exactly in Responsy WP v4.0.5 ?

[camllc]

the same thing I did in 3.5, which was adding the following @font-face css to style.css and have my font files in the css folder. works like a charm on 3.5 but does not on 4.0.5. I’ve tried several variations of similar things including absolute links to the fonts and still not working. any idea why it’s different?

@font-face {
font-family: “House Slant”;
src: url(‘css/HouseSlant.eot’);
src: url(“css/HouseSlant.eot?#iefix”) format(“embedded-opentype”),
url(“css/HouseSlant.woff”) format(“woff”);
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
font-stretch: normal;
}

I have reverted to 3.5 on my site in the mean time. please let me know as I would prefer to stay updated. Thanks in advance. http://www.camllc.org

any ideas? It seems like a pretty straight forward thing I was hoping the developer would know what the difference is and can tell me what to change to make it work.

Hi, update your site to v.4.0.5, and let me check your site again to see what’s wrong.

[camllc]

if I do, the whole site really looks bad. If I know you are online and can check it, I don’t mind setting it that way for a little while, but I can’t have it like that for a day and a half – if you send me a response I will change it right away and let you know.

Make sure you copied your font files to the css folder of v4.0.5.

[camllc]

I did confirm that, I spent a long time trying different things like I said – even trying absolute links to the fonts instead of relative but it still does not work.

I have switch to 4.0.5, if you are able to take a look. you can see it drastically impacts the look of my site so I will want to either fix or revert back to 3.5 before too long.

It is under css/css/ directory. Upload directly under css/ folder.

[camllc]

that is strange. in 3.5 i did have them in responsy-v3.5/css/fontfiles… it has to be inside a folder called css INSIDE the css folder in 4.0.5 – so responsy-v4-0-5/css/css/fontfiles

I hope this helps others as I spent entirely too much time trying to figure it out! Big thanks!

You are welcome.
