Snippet: Define Your Font Family Stack (fallback font)

  • Updated:
Important: Rather then using custom code it's recommended to use the Font Manager to define your fonts and font stacks.

Whenever you set a font via the customizer or theme elements it will give the element a font-family value equal to the selected font without any fallback value (some popular fonts like Open Sans do have a default fallback font stack). You can use the "wpex_get_font_family_stack" filter to define your custom font stack for any font used on the site.

/**
 * Define font family stacks.
 *
 * @link https://total.wpexplorer.com/docs/snippets/define-font-family-stack/
 */
add_filter( 'wpex_get_font_family_stack', function( $font_family, $stack ) {
	if ( 'your-font' == $font_family ) {
		$stack = 'sans-serif';
	}
	return $stack;
}, 10, 2 );
All PHP snippets should be added via child theme's functions.php file or via a plugin. We recommend Code Snippets (100% Free) or WPCode (sponsored)
