Rise Details section Font broken
Hi community/devs,
I've noticed that any new course I make in Rise, the Details section defaults its font back to a Serif font like Times New Roman or something. No matter what font I use, if ...
Hey everyone! I'm happy to let you know that we've fixed the issue where the wrong font was showing on your mobile devices. Please export your courses again to take advantage of the fix.
So I'm tired of waiting for this dev team on this. I'm convinced they are just not doing anything about it. So I had the inspiration to fix this and I found the problem in their coding. TLDR: they are inheriting the Merriweather font in the container for the description.
For Instructional Designers who can't wait for the devs to implement the fix, here is the solution:
- When you publish a course, extract the .zip file.
- Navigate to scormcontent > lib > main.bundle.css
- Open this file in Notepad, or wherever you want to edit the code.
- Hit CTRL+F to open the Find window and type in: ".overview__description"
- You'll notice after the bracket "{" a sentence: "font-family:merriweather,serif;"
- Change this to "font-family:lato,sans-serif;"
- Save the file
- Navigate back to the root folder, select all the folders and files, Send to > Compressed .zip
- Your course should work without randomly switching to Merriweather font when the screen gets too small, or on mobile.
For the devs: Look at the solution above and implement the fix inside of Rise so we don't have to do this massive workaround.
Note: Change the font to the one you want it to be, "lato,sans-serif" is just the one we use.
