How to add a custom font to your Hoop.la site

TipsOne thing we discovered recently is that, for at least some Google Fonts, if you do not include the "bold" version of the font when you include it then items you make bold may not actually appear bold when using Chrome. Thus, we recommend that you include both the normal and bold versions of the Google Font, if you are adding a Google Font to your HEAD area. Here is an example: <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

Tips❤️Crowdstack contains several icon based menu items and there are times when you may want to replace the icon with text to make the action more clear. For this tip I will be focusing on the search menu item: Each menu item is represented in the DOM using a li -> a, and the items with a icon will contain a i (icon) within the a (anchor). Since I want to customize the search icon I will use a DOM inspector, in this case the one built into chrome to look at that magnifying glass icon used for...

Crowdstack DiscussionHi guys, I have Sublime Text Editor (simple editor, not flashy) to customize my pages. What are you guys and gals doing to modify your stock pages, and can you post an example of the layout in HTML and CSS? On a side note, when I installed Sublime, I had checked the feature that should be bringing up the option to open a page in HTML view. It's not happening. Am I doing something wrong or do I need to change a browser setting? I'm using Chrome.

Blog Post CommentHello Could you please explain just how the new ‘multi quote’ function can be used when you wish to quote from a previous page, as well as the current page? This is often the case especially when a new page has only one or two post on it. I know that you can post a quote from a previous page; we need to be able to quote from more than one page. Having the posting page tied to the current page (crazy) prevents me from being able to do this as the first quote selected cannot survive the page...

Blog Post CommentHi Rosemary! Is there a way to create a collection for forum posts in this manner so it can be pulled into a widget like you suggest with the blog posts?

Topic ReplyHey there! I'm curious as to what you're looking to customize? Crowdstack plans offer varying degrees of access to things like Custom CSS and Custom pages, as well as custom HTML in the header, but we may be able to help you if we know a bit more about your design goals. Just a tidbit---Crowdstack uses Foundation framework for its CSS. Most browsers include a way to "inspect" a page to see the classes that are being used, which helps if you're trying to focus in on a particular piece of text...

Blog Post CommentI've used the latest version of Microsoft Edge on various Hoop.la sites (and Hoo.do) and there are literally no errors in markup or visual differences with Chrome (the browser I use for default). Only thing that you may notice is Microsoft's 'ClearType' technology that's on by default. It tries to smooth out the edges of fonts to offer more readable text, but I don't like it myself. Otherwise I agree with Ted that it's a huge step forward from any version of Internet Explorer.

Blog Post CommentWhen asked in a private interview what he thought of his customers providing Facebook with all their private information, Mr. Zuckerberg referred to his customers as, "...a bunch of dumb f**ks." At that moment I lost all respect for that simple twit.

Blog Post CommentI love how they use circles. It is a great way to organize your friends by their relationship. So many time with Facebook, you cannot specify how they are related to you. Hopefully we will see a bit more iphone application development in this realm. The app that Google has out now could use a bit more polishing. What do you guys think?

Blog Post CommentYou do all that before feeding those kiddies? And you cook! If I am honest It is the Small business feel that attracts me to LiveCloud. Some of the Faceless options out there just turn me off. So from my point of view your "recipe" is very tasty. I would love to know how you manage your Email in box...

Blog Post CommentLOL, but breakfast is usually something "instant." It makes everything so much more fun when we get to know our customers and they become friends. Makes me want to get up at 6am When are you coming back to visit us in the States again? I use my email inbox as a "to do" list. First run through and delete all of the spam (even with filtering, there's a lot). Then respond to the quick items, then go top to bottom for the longer responses. Then read the blogs, deleting the ones I don't need to...

Blog Post CommentWell visiting America/Seattle depends on Elizabeths recovery from this Pemphigoid condition. It is so sensitive that we fear a prolonged flight may antagonise it. However people are supposed to recover so we will see. We would love to Amtrak it from Chicago to Seattle have va few days with you lot again then go back via a different route. Probably expensive but worth it.
