good day dear ziontutorial

many thank you so much for spending your time creating and posting this article.

i just found your article and i like it. The way you talk about How to Create a Landing Page in WordPress | Elementor | For Beginners and Wordpress-development.

Many thanks for the article it is just great!! It looks very promising and your thoughts regarding How to Create a Landing Page in WordPress | Elementor | For Beginners: all is very interesting. Many thanks for your inspiring ideas.

i am currently working on some issues - that have to do with the CSS and google fonts.

to begin with the beginning:i have found out that my wordpress-site fetches two google fonts:

one of them is montserrat

i decided to host them locally. so i have to

a. fetch the fonts
b. correct the css code

with the following tool i fetch them

google-webfonts-helper.herokuapp.c...

here i have the option to add the paths - to customize the path in the css-data

/* montserrat-regular - latin / u/font-face { font-family: 'Montserrat'; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; src: url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.eot'); / IE9 Compat Modes / src: local(''), url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), / IE6-IE8 / url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.woff2') format('woff2'), / Super Modern Browsers / url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.woff') format('woff'), / Modern Browsers / url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.ttf') format('truetype'), / Safari, Android, iOS / url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.svg#Montserrat') format('svg'); / Legacy iOS */ } Customize folder prefix (optional):

and now i have to add a path to set the correct path - (that means to customize the path )

../fonts/

some additional thought: what makes me wonder is the fact that some of the examples show full paths as reference - others dont:

see the following examples;

a. wp-ninjas.de/wordpress-google-font...

url("https://wp-ninias.de/fonts/muilti-latin-300.woff2") format (
url("https://wp-ninias.de/fonts/muilti-latin-300.woff") format (

b. pixelgrade.com/docs/advanced-custo...

Copy the URL Path field and paste it before each URL in the Embed Code field. The example code will look like this:

@font-face {
font-family: 'Name of the font';
src: url('http://yourwebsite.com/wp-content/uploads/fonts/11148/name-of-the-font-file.woff2') format('woff2'),
url('http://yourwebsite.com/wp-content/uploads/fonts/11148/name-of-the-font-file.woff') format('woff');
}

c. themeisle.com/blog/custom-fonts-wo...

Once the file is in place, open up your child theme’s stylesheet. Now you’ll need to call on that font so you can use it, via a snippet that should look like this:

`

@font-face {
font-family: New Font;
src: url(yourwebsite.com/wp-content/themes/...);
font-weight: normal;
}

`

and now compare it with the following example here:

  1. Copy CSS: (default is Best Support) Modern Browsers Choose Best Support if old browsers still need to be supported. Formats in this snippet: [eot,woff,woff2,ttf,svg]

Code:
/* montserrat-regular - latin */
@font-face {
font-family: 'Montserrat';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 400;
src: url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.eot'); /* IE9 Compat Modes */
src: local(''),
url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), /* IE6-IE8 */
url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.woff2') format('woff2'), /* Super Modern Browsers */
url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.woff') format('woff'), /* Modern Browsers */
url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.ttf') format('truetype'), /* Safari, Android, iOS */
url('../fonts/montserrat-v25-latin-regular.svg#Montserrat') format('svg'); /* Legacy iOS */

see the helper-tool google-webfonts-helper.herokuapp.c...

the question: so the question is: how to set the path correct for the CSS... which path should we use here!?

Dear ziontutorial i look forward to hear from you
