Google Fonts for WordPress

By Danny Cooper

Description

The Google Fonts library currently contains 877 unique fonts. This plugin allows you to easily use any of them on your WordPress website.

You’re not stuck with one font for the entire website, you can easily choose one font for headings and another for your content.

It’s hard to know which font will look good on your website, that’s why we’ve included a live preview feature. That means you can test each font and see a live preview of how it will look with your content instantly.

Once you’ve found a combination you love, you can press save and make the changes publicly visible.

The full Google Fonts library can be found here – Google Fonts

Reviews

Very helpful

I used this plugin to change fonts in a Genesis Sample Theme, because I am not a coder but I make websites and I didn't know how to customize inside the theme itself. And it worked very well. It was a good and sample way to do that.

does the job

This plugin does the job when you're looking to use a Google Font. Thanks for developing it.

Excellent – love the live preview ability!

Easy to use with clean UI. The live preview makes it so simple to evaluate changes with a client either in person or using a screen share tool. Saves me valuable time! The free version is all I need for most clients,,, and the premium version has some great features for even more fine-tuning!

Is good

Upon using this plugin, I have made the discovery that it is, in fact, good.
