Hi,
I assume that the operators of Rockettheme have also become aware that in Germany, due to a court ruling from August 2022 with reference to the GDPR and European law, the non-local integration of Google Fonts on a website is illegal if the visitor does not agree to it.
Since then, numerous website operators have been warned by lawyers with costs.
Where can I find instructions on how to use Rocketheme templates in a legally compliant manner by changing the integration of Google Fonts to local integration of the fonts?
Thanks and kind regards
U.

Yes we are well aware and there is nothing for us to do. You need to download the font that you want to use from gold and install it locally in your site, then just change the font used in your outline "styles" tab to use that local font.
To add a custom font to Gantry 5 please read this http://docs.gantry.org/gantry5/tutorials/fonts .
