You can type Vietnamese language into Webflow CMS blog posts as long as your font supports Vietnamese characters. Here's how to ensure proper setup for full compatibility.
1. Use a Font with Vietnamese Character Support
- Not all fonts support Vietnamese diacritics, so choose one that includes extended Latin glyphs.
- Recommended Google Fonts with Vietnamese support:
- Roboto
- Open Sans
- Merriweather
- Lora
- Noto Sans
- When adding fonts via Webflow or Google Fonts, make sure to select the Vietnamese language subset in the font settings.
2. Add or Change Fonts in Webflow
- Go to Project Settings > Fonts to upload a custom font (if using a custom .woff or .ttf file).
- Or, use the Webflow Designer:
- Click any text element.
- In the Typography section, select a Google Font that supports Vietnamese and ensure it’s applied site-wide or at the text class level.
3. Enter Vietnamese Text in CMS
- Webflow CMS supports UTF-8 characters, so you can directly type or paste Vietnamese text into:
- CMS fields like "Name," "Plain Text," or "Rich Text."
- The CMS Editor or Designer’s CMS Collection Items.
- Vietnamese accents (e.g.,
á
, ả
, ơ
, ê
) will render correctly as long as the font supports them.
4. Test and Preview
- Publish your site and verify the rendered blog post to ensure all accents display correctly.
- Use different devices/browsers to double-check that font rendering is consistent.
5. Optional: Embed Google Fonts Manually for More Control
- If you’re using a custom embed, make sure the Google Fonts URL includes
&subset=vietnamese
to load proper character sets.
Summary
To type Vietnamese in Webflow CMS blog posts, use a font that supports Vietnamese characters (like Roboto or Lora), apply it through Designer or Project Settings, and directly input Vietnamese text into your CMS. Always verify the character display on the live site.
