For that you need to goto the ACP

under that select Confiquration

Under confiquration you will find a box "Allow HTML" select Yes

Then under that box it says allow Tags...type in "font"

[without the " "]

then hit submit

the html tag font should work which is used like this

<font face="font name">Text text text</font>

When posting is the Disable HTML in this post checked...if so uncheck it...

ALSO use < and > instead of [ and ] for it is HTML now not BBCode
Example

Code: Select all

<font face="font name">Text text text</font>
this:

Code: Select all

[font face="Comic Sans MS"Now, assuming I've done this right, it will post up like I want it to.  How nice of you lovies to call this a playground! Must go find some toys...
should look like this:

Code: Select all

<font face="Comic Sans MS">Now assuming I've done this right, it will post up like I want it to.  How nice of you lovies to call this a playground! Must go find some toys...</font>

Do you have the font tag and HTML enabled?

It seems that phpBB doesn't support Font Face. You can see the whole forum use 1 Font Face only :cry: (thats why you don't see the Combo Box Select Font when you post new message)

If you look at your style.css, you will see this code

Code: Select all

font,th,td,p { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; }
It controls the font face.

Please correct me if I was wrong.
