Also, is this the correct forum for this? Not sure where it belongs.
Yes, the thread is fine here, don't worry.
As for your issue...I think I can make a hack for it. You can usually apply a user stylesheet to your browser to override some site-specific settings. The trouble is that it's a global stylesheet, not site specific, and I don't know how exactly to fix that in IE (other browsers have addons to handle it. I don't use IE, dunno if it has anything). However, I can make the fix site specific here with just some CSS selection rules, which means that it may stop working if the forum layout gets changed. Still, hopefully it would serve as a fix until then.
So, here is what you do:
1. Create a new text file and name it
user.css (or anything you want, actually). Make sure it ends in .css, and it's not .css.txt - in Windows Explorer, you can go to
Tools ->
Folder Options -> the
View tab -> untick
Hide extension for known file types.
2. In the file copy/paste place the following
html#html_element body#forums_body.standard div#InSkinContainer_myPageSkin.InSkinContainer div#InSkinContentContainer_myPageSkin.InSkinContentContainer div#InSkinPageContainer_myPageSkin.InSkinPageContainer div#container div#site_body div#full_column div#forums_container p {
font-family: 'Lato' !important;
}
(erm, I put a tab before font-family, buy it doesn't show up here. It's not needed, it just makes it easier to read)
3. In Internet Explorer go to cogwheel thingie in the upper right (I'm looking this up on IE10, I think it's the same in 9) ->
Internet Options -> the
General tab -> click the
Accessibility button -> tick
Format documents using my style sheet -> Click
Browse -> select the file you just created.
4. Restart IE.
It should work now. Here is a proof of concept [http://s13.postimg.org/owz7bb4qf/ie_proof.png] - I did the exact same thing just to check if I'm not giving bullshit advice. Well, obviously I went with something more...obvious, but what I gave you should work the same way, essentially. Give me a shout if it's still not right.
