How to change the font for the disqus commenting - iframe

I installed Disqus and it is making me crazy, I spent 5 hours yesterday trying to find a way to change the default font but it just does not work.
I am using the Wordpress plugin available here :
http://wordpress.org/plugins/disqus-comment-system/
I tried adding css in my style.css :
#disqus_thread{font-family:tahoma;}
but no luck, then I noticed it is loading the styles from lounge_rtl.css (since I changed to a different language) - also adding !important does not have any effect. any suggestion ?

You can't change the CSS within the Disqus iframe since it's technically loading from the disqus.com domain. You do have two font options - serif and sans-serif - available to you in the Disqus admin, but nothing else can be changed at this moment.

Using a Custom font on weebly blog

I'm trying to use a custom font on my blog which is I haven't make it work yet. Maybe you guys can help me out on this.
I just want my blog title to have its own font. here's the HTML structure

http://prntscr.com/curfro
here's the class on my blog-title
http://prntscr.com/curgr8
did I miss something? can someone help me out please. thanks!!
You need to include the full path to the .ttf file on http://prnt.sc/curfro
It looks like you have everything right, however not seeing a live example makes it a little hard to isolate. But there are a few things to consider. For example:
Did you try publishing the site?
Are you ONLY trying the Blog Title?
IF you have set your Font Settings for the Title and Blog Post
Title, to a specific font, it's going to override the Theme's design
and your custom Font. In that case edit the Font Settings and choose
"Default". Then try to see if it works(dont forget to publish). See: https://hc.weebly.com/hc/en-us/articles/201505666-Edit-Fonts
Is the 'Content Area' a div with an ID of content <div id="content"></div> (IF not that could be the issue.) Note: #content h2.blog-title could also be written as .blog-post .blog-header h2.blog-title
Have you tried a different font file(try a different font type/file)
With that, you should at least be able to isolate the issue, if not resolve it.

Wordpress editor showing white text

I have a problem with a Wordpress site, the editor is showing the text as white (on a white background) so unless you highlight the text, you can't see it. This is only in the admin section of the site, the front-end doesn't seem to be affected
I have found where the css is changing the text to white ( /wp-includes/css/editor.min.css ):
.js .tmce-active .wp-editor-area{color:#fff}
I have removed this and cleared the cache (even tried a different browser) but it's still showing in the editor.
Also, the 'Visual' and 'Text' buttons don't work.
Any ideas?
I have gone through an disabled each plugin, one at a time but it still is a problem.
Check your javascript console. If you see an error like:
"post.php?post=2840&action=edit:2783 Uncaught ReferenceError: tinymce is not defined"
Then the loading of wp-tinymce.php failing. Because the editor hasn't loaded, it appear as if your text is white, or "invisible" in the editor. This can be worked-around by adding:
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);
(Per Tijmen above, or https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/63172/118510)
(I use WP Fastest Cache plugin which has it's own concatenation, so if I use that plugin, then I'm OK skipping the default Wordpress concatenation.)
The root problem, however, is that a request to:
/wp-includes/js/tinymce/wp-tinymce.php?c=1&ver=4506-20170408
Is failing or receiving a 404. This could be due to a security restriction on your hosting or CDN.
Let's start with the obvious: is your Wordpress install completely up-to-date, including all plug-ins, themes etc?
It could help to actively declare the color to be black, instead of simply removing the line of CSS you removed, so:
.js .tmce-active .wp-editor-area{color:#000000}
Alternatively, this issue has been known to be caused by several plugins, such as PS Disable Autoformatting, however that instance was a few years ago. Did you recently install a plug-in? If so, try disabling that plug-in to see if that returns the editor to normal.
If none of this solves the issue, you can also try downloading Wordpress and replacing the /wp-includes/js/tinymce/ folder. Although it's unlikely, it's not impossible that something went wrong during an update or so.
If nothing else works, according to this link, you can open your wp-config.php file and add the following line at the very top after the php opening tag.
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);
I have just fixed this problem and thought it would be worth mentioning this basic check to others. If you are installing another theme or a second theme that installs it's own set of plugins, make sure you don't have any existing plugin composers installed or still activated. This can cause the conflict that makes the text white and the tabs to not work.
For me, I had both CMSMasters Content Composer (From previous theme) and WPBakery Visual Composer (From new theme) installed and active, which gave me this exact issue. I had also tried replacing the tinymce file and adding the extra line to wp-config, but none of these worked. Deactivating CMSMasters Content Composer fixed the white text issue for me.
Go into your account settings and check "Disable the visual editor when writing" ... Now try your page and/or post again. You should have text, not in white, and now you should be able to edit your page. Of course, you won't have a visual editor and that isn't any fun.
I think this eventually is a server problem where there are not enough resources for all the block rendering for both javascript and css. In Chrome, check the 'performance' of the page in developer tools ... it's likely less than 30.
For me, the problem was caused by the way the wordpress editor interacts with vue.js in my plugin's custom admin page.
Specifically, the white-text issue on the editor was caused by being inside of a v-if. There must be some conflict in how v-if renders the content which breaks TinyMCE if it is inside of the v-if.
The fix was as simple as switching to v-show. This causes the TinyMCE to be rendered once on page load and then just hidden as needed. Using v-show causes the editor text and toolbar rendered normally.

bootstrap integration with wordpress and datatable changes whole wp-admin background as white?

I am using DataTables 1.10 and bootstrap downloaded from Datatables CDN link source.When I am integrating both with wordpress plugin, bootstrap changes the background color as white(#ffffff) for the whole wordpress admin panel and plugin page by default.Not getting why this happened ? This should not happen as i have seen in the examples.Please help me to sort this out. Thanks in advance
I believe you are probably enqueuing the CSS for whole WP admin, rather than just that specific plugin settings page. Also, if the background for body / container is changed, probably you are enqueuing some generic styles file (which sets style for body element). It's the easiest to see why this happens from Chrome's console (or Firebug or similar tool) - click "Inspect element" on the changed background, and see what CSS file does it come from.

How to change 'inherited' font families using the CSS style sheet

I am not a programmer. The language is foreign. I am creating a WordPress website. I created a child-theme.
I read the theme documentation. Understood very little.
sent an email to the theme owner. No answer (2 weeks ago)
searched the web - found many websites - i.e. http://www.w3schools.com/ - http://css-tricks.com/sans-serif/ & others - me, no speak the language. Can you place html code in a CSS file?
The child-theme consists of a new style.css file. The top section of the style.css file is what was needed to create the child-theme. Then there are color changes which I inserted & that has gone very well.
Changing the font family is confusing. Poking around the parent theme and also using 'Firebug' the font(s) seem(s) to be ('inherited'?). .genericon, 'Roboto Condensed', Sans-serif, Arimo, Arial and a few other standard MS Word fonts. I saw on the Google font site a couple of fonts I would prefer to use for my website.
How do I (or even can I) download the Google fonts to the Style.css file?
What do I need to insert in the child style.css file to override the parent fonts?
In case this is important, the theme has more than one template (PHP?) option. I am using W7 OS.
The Google Fonts site is really direct and helpful.
In your example, you mention Roboto. Here's the page for that font.
You would check the varieties of Roboto that you want to be able to use on your site under Step 1.
Step 2 allows you to select additional character sets -- for example if you were likely to be displaying text in Russian.
Step 3 gives you three ways to "enable" the font on your site. You'll be placing a line of code somewhere, telling users' browsers to go and get the font from Google when called for. The easiest way to do this is probably the #import option. Copy and paste the code under that tab into your style.css at the top (that's important -- it should go before any of the stuff describing the layout or type on your stylesheet). Your sub-theme likely has a bunch of other #import lines up there already.
Step 4 shows what specifically you need to tell your stylesheet to look for.
Good luck!
External style sheets have the highest hierarchy, so just specify your styles with the id, class or element name.
Google is your friend here.
To use google fonts, go to the google font page and search for your font with the search box on the left, then click add to collection. Once in your collection, go to your collection and click "use".
You should get an "#import()" code, place this at the top of your external sheet.

WordPress (3.5.1) Theme Media Upload gets frozen

I've read some of the topics here but did not found a solution for me. When I try to set a feature image to the post/portfolio the media upload window gets frozen(cant even close it down - pressing esc does the trick) and also can't set the feature image, upload an image, ..
If trying this in IE 8 I get a pop up error when opening the media upload(pressing set feature image) with this content "Out of memory at line 2!"
I am using the Wordpress version 3.5.1, thanks in advance for a posibble solution.
TNX!
May add that the IE8 also gives errors for:
wp-admin/js/media-upload.min.js?ver=3.5.1 and
wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce.js?ver=358-23224,
if switching to themeeleven the upload works ok, but not in my theme.
If uploading works fine in a default Wordpress theme like twentyeleven or twentytwelve, that means there is a javascript conflict with your theme, esp. indicated by the IE8 errors. Possibly a plugin, but most likely the theme.
Look at http://wordpress.org/support/topic/troubleshooting-wordpress-35-master-list?replies=4 to see if your theme (or a plugin) is listed as problematic and to learn how to check for javascript errors that will impact the Wordpress admin area.
Use Firebug with Firefox, or use the developer tools in Chrome or Safari or IE to see what javascript is loading on your site and see any errors and conflicts.
