I have The Box theme (which is gorgeous, btw) and I was wondering if there was any way to change the font on the blog title. Right now, it's a script-y font (I think it's on a few of your other themes as well) and it's a little hard to read on my computer and driving me CRAZY! Anyway, if it can't be changed, it's fine, I was just wondering. (keep up the fantastic work, hon. you're fabulous)

You can change it! You just have to go into the code a bit.

FINDING A FONT YOU LIKE

If you already have a font in mind, then skip this entire paragraph. If not, the easiest way to find one you like is to go to Google Web Fonts and pick one you like. Once you have done that, you should see a button in the bottom right of the font entry that says “Quick-Use.” Scroll down and copy the piece of code that looks like this:

<link href=’http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=FONT+NAME’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’>

Now, go to your customizer and click “Edit HTML.” Towards the very top of the code, you should see this piece of code, which contains the fonts I used in the theme:

<link href=’http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Ruthie|Ubuntu+Condensed|Economica’ rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’>

Paste the code you copied from Google Web Fonts IMMEDIATELY AFTER that piece of code.

CHANGING THE FONT OF THE TITLE

Scroll further into the code (about 20% of the way down) and find the code that looks like this:

#blogtitle {position:fixed; margin-left:-272px; top:465px; width:520px; font-size:28px; line-height:28px; letter-spacing:1px;font-family:’Ruthie’; color:{color:Blog Title}; text-align:right; z-index:999999;-webkit-transform: rotate(-90deg); -moz-transform: rotate(-90deg);}

Change the bold part, which is the default font for the blog title, and change it to the font that you picked. So, for example, if your font was “Racing+Sans+One,” then change the bold part to “Racing Sans One”.

That’s it! Let me know if you have any trouble.
