Custom font for the side menu?
I am using custom web fonts in a course but they dont seem to apply to the side menu?
Instead they are set to be Lato, according to this CSS:
.brand--ui, .brand--ui * {
font-family: Lato !important;
}
Is this correct and if it is, is there any way I can change it (other than editing the CSS of course)?
thanks.

Change them in the player settings to choose the player font
Do you mean here?
because if so, that's the easy bit. the part I want to re-style is the side bar:
The font's seem to stay as Lato.
Hi Mark!
The Rise sidebar menu font is set by design, but thanks for letting us know you'd like to change that font setting. If we add this customization option to Rise in the future, we'll let you know!
Thank you for the clarification!
Hello,
I have a problem with latin extended characters (Czech language) in menu which are not in the right font. See picture attached.
Is there any solution for this problem?
Hi Lucie,
I’m sorry that you’re having a problem here. If you’re trying to use characters that are not in the default font the browser will choose the next available font. That looks to be what is happening here.
We have a feature request logged to allow for special characters in other languages within the default font, but it’s not something available right now.
I’ve included your question in the feedback to our product team. If I can help with anything else, please let me know.
Is there a solution for this or any update?
Hi Vipul,
Thanks for reaching out!
I don’t currently have any updates, but you are now subscribed to this conversation which means as we share updates here, you’ll automatically be notified.
Reminding you that there is still no solution to this. Lato does not support a number of languages.
I have applied the fix in the OP's comment for Turkish, and despite changing the <style>...</style> tags, Lato still keeps coming back and replacing my custom fonts

In the meantime, if there's anything else I can do to help, please let me know!
This is deeply affecting courses my team are trying to create. Using the Romanian language, the diacritics are broken in the menu.
Same with Russian. UI CSS in RISE is inline not in CSS file. Fix that, please!
