    The font for my site’s logo, Flavorful Eats, used to be in cursive, and after my site updated to WordPress 5.8.1. yesterday, the font has changed to something else. The colors and other aspects of my theme are all the same, just the logo font has changed. Is there something I can do to get my font back without having to uninstall the update?
    I’m using Chrome if that helps.

    This is the CSS covering that:

    .site-title, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    font-family: Raleway, sans-serif;
    font-weight: inherit;
}
.site-title {
    font-family: 'Rochester', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;
    font-size: 88px;
    font-weight: normal;
    line-height: 58px;
    margin: 10px 0 20px;
    text-transform: none;
}

    The first overrides the second, forcing the font to Raleway.

    This appears to be set by the Additional CSS in the customizer and could not have been changed by 5.8.1. It may be that the WP update cleared a cache.

    Check the CSS in the customizer to find and remove the “.site-title,” from that stanza.

    Thanks, Steve. When I go in to change it back to Rochester from Raleway, there is no Rochester. Is it possible they dropped that font in the update?

    These are not WordPress-specified. Fonts are usually theme or plugin territory.

    Your theme is 

    	Theme Name: Innovative Child Theme
	Theme URI: http://thepixelista.com/themes/innovative/
	Description: Innovative is a two or three column child theme created for the Genesis Framework with a custom home page and a custom category template.
	Author: The Pixelista
	Author URI: http://thepixelista.com/

    Unfotunately, that URL does not seem to exist.

    I suggest you contact the developer of your site.

    Thank you, Steve! I guess I have the fun task of choosing a new theme and hoping a transfer goes smoothly. I appreciate your help.
