Make Your WordPress Site Fontastic!

Ever want to use different fonts in your WordPress site but were not sure how to accomplish that? Wish you could designate different fonts for different sections of your site? Well, yes you can do that with your theme’s global CSS file. But for those who are not CSS whizzes just yet, I’ve found a nifty plugin that may fit the bill.

Anyfont is a WordPress plugin that allows you to use any truetype or opentype font for post titles, menu items or anywhere else you want to use a custom font in your theme design. How cool is that!?

Features:

• Font Manager to easily upload new fonts to WordPress
• Style Management which allows an unlimited number of different styles to be created.
• Font shadow options within the style manager.
• Image Cache for generated images plus browser caching is enabled for images to reduce page load times.
• Cache Management.
• Easy text replacement options for post titles, page titles, widget titles, blog name and blog description.
• Image replacements are SEO compatible.

Now, just because this plugin gives you font flexibility doesn’t mean you go font crazy! I prefer to keep things simple and if I do use different fonts I keep it to 2-3 tops so that my designs remain clean and professional. Using too many fonts can get busy and amateurish fast if you don’t have an eye for design.

At your service,
Judith
