All those pretty fonts on your site... they're slowing you down.
And guess what? If your page doesn't load quickly, visitors don't wait -- they bounce. You're losing clicks, leads, and sales and your fonts are contributing to the problem.
Don’t believe me? Check your website’s speed metrics. A 100-millisecond delay can drop your conversion rate by up to 7%.
But now there’s a way to fix that without sacrificing your brand or design.
That's why I'm thrilled to announce our brand new Thrive Font Library!
Built-In Font Management That Actually Makes Sense
Now you can manage all your fonts directly from your Thrive Dashboard, with local hosting and complete control over your typography - without touching a single line of code or installing additional plugins.
The best part? Unlike other WordPress solutions that require multiple plugins or rely on external services, our Font Library is built right into the Thrive Dashboard, giving you everything you need in one place.

Will this automatically update across our site? Or do we need to visit each page or post to update?
Hi Shawn — thanks for reaching out!
If your site is using Thrive Theme Builder, you can just jump into your theme’s typography set and make the change there once. All the pages and posts that inherit your theme’s typography settings will now use the font you’ve set in the typography area.
Let me know if you have any other questions 😊
What do we need to do to ensure we are using the new faster fonts on all our webpages? I imagine one step is updating our Thrive Theme fonts in Thrive Theme Builder but are there certain pages (like landing pages) that also need to be updated individually? Is it possible that we might need to double check every page of our site, and if so, is there a plugin that can help speed up the process?
Hi Andrew — excellent question.
You’re right about one thing: if your site is using Thrive Theme Builder, updating your theme’s typography set to use your Thrive Font Library custom font will ensure that all pages and posts inheriting your theme’s typography settings use the font you’ve selected in the typography area.
As for landing pages that aren’t inheriting your theme’s typography set — they’ll still function perfectly, and you’re not obligated to change them if you don’t want to. It’s considered best practice if you’d prefer to host everything locally, but like I said, that’s entirely your call. They’ll continue working just as they have up until now.
If you do decide to update them, just keep in mind that Thrive Architect lets you quickly customize the typography set for your entire landing page — no need to manually change each individual text element on your page. You can find this option in the Styles panel of your landing page.
Let me know if you have any other questions 😊
Forgot to mention — landing pages also have a handy toggle you can click to magically make them inherit your theme’s typography settings, if you’d prefer to go that route 😁
