How do you change the font in WordPress without changing the code?
The answer is so easy, but it took me a long time to hunt it down, so I want to share it here and hopefully help others find the answer faster than I did!
How To Change the Font in WordPress Without Changing the Code
1. Install the free WP Google Fonts plugin and click Activate.
You don’t need to go through the link above, you can start in your WordPress Admin panel:
- Click “Plugins” (it’s in the left margin in your WordPress Admin panel).
- Click “Add New”.
- Type “WP Google Fonts” in the Search Plugins box.
- Click “Install” in the WP Google Fonts box.
- Click “Activate”.
2. Go into the WP Google Fonts Settings and choose your Google fonts.
- You can view a text snippet of the full list of Google fonts here. The plugin allows you to choose up to 6 different fonts to use for the various headings but you should not use more than two or your blog will look messy. I keep it simple and clean and use the Open Sans font for everything.
- Click “Save all fonts” when you’re done, and refresh your site to see your new fonts—no coding needed!
