  Hi,

  I have changed my website’s font to Arial but the text in bold still appears in “source_sans_probold” font.
  Is there a way to change this from the settings of the theme?

  Hi,

  That is odd, can you show me the page URL that is appearing on?

  Cheers,
  David.

  Hi,

  Please use this CSS in your theme options:

  b, strong {
      font-family, arial, sans-serif!important;
  }

  Thanks,
  David.

  Hi David,

  I had already tried this code but it doesn’t work for some reason.
  I’ve cleared cache, I tried incognito mode and it still appears in different font…

  Any suggestions?

  Actually it works but the font isn’t bold anymore.

  b, strong {
      font-family: arial, sans-serif!important;
  }

  In your code you put a comma instead of a colon in font-family before.

  Try this one instead

  b, strong {
      font-family: arial, sans-serif!important;
      font-weight: bolder!important;
  }

  Perfect!
  I always forget to add important when something doesn’t work.
  Thanks a lot Rui!
  Mark as resolved.

  Same issue for me. I’m using Myriad Pro, but bold text uses a different font which makes it look out of place. I think it would make sense to add a setting for bold font to “Font Options” or adjust it automatically if the main body font changes.

  Hi

  Will need to use custom css, all of the Google fonts have a bold weight so adding a bold font option wouldn’t really make sense. Use the css above to set the font for bold text
