Hi.
This may be a basic question but I've read every post in the documentation and forums about setting Squirrel fonts through the Template Manager but I can't make it work :(

I've downloaded my Webfont kit from FontSquirrel with the two styles I need (light and bold) and the default stylesheet.css it generates.
I've tried to upload them in my template's fonts folder directly and in a new folder with the name of the font but nothing seems to work.

I would appreciate a step by step guide to where and how I have to upload my font files to make the Gavern Framework in the Template Manager to detect them.

Thanks in advance.

Solved it.

It was a permission issue in the folder that FontSquirrel generates.
Change the reading access through my hosting service file manager and seems to be working now.

Don't you love spending an entire day trying to make something work? #NOT
Ah, technology <3

Hello,

For our information how exactly did you changed your chmods? It can be useful for our other users :)

Exactly Dziudek!
Something really weird happened to me with a FontSquirrel family....everything worked as expected until a moment in which...one of the fonts is not detected anymore. No mispelling in .css, no changes (apparently) at all. Just one of them decided not to show up anymore. And guess what? It was the <body> main font...
Any idea?

Thank you

@LolloValeGinger - could you provide an URL to your website with this problem and the name of the font.

Sure.

The name of the font is locatorultralight

Thank you very much,

How do you loading this font? Because I don't see any references to the stylesheet.css in the font directory even for the locatorlight font, which loads on my browsers.

Sorry but I'm unable to find a reason of your issue - there is no messages in the console, and the traffic between website and browser also looks normally.

Same here.
I tried almost everything...

...hopefully I have to change server to the final online destination...let's hope on the new one things will go back at their working state.

Thank you anyway
