The WP Google Fonts plugin allows you to easily add fonts from the Google Font Directory to your Wordpress theme.
== Description ==
Google's free font directory is one of the most exciting developments in web typography in a very long time. The amazing rise of this new font resource has made this plugin the most popular font plugin on Wordpress and it shows no signs of stopping. While font plugin solutions like FontBurner.com have helped bring rich typography to Wordpress themes, the selection of fonts easily available to the average blogger have been limited. The WP Google Font plugin makes it even easier to use Google's free service to add high quality fonts to your Wordpress powered site. Not only does this plugin add the necessary Google code, but it also gives you the ability to assign the Google fonts to specific CSS elements of your website from within the Wordpress admin. Or if you would rather, you can target the Google fonts from your own theme's stylesheet.
Right now, the Google Directory has hundreds of great fonts, and the selection is steadily growing. As new fonts are added, we will release updates to the plugin quickly so you can start using new fonts as they become available. It truly is an exciting time to be creating websites, and I hope this plugin helps you create some great stuff. - Adrian3
== Changelog ==
Version 3.11
- Fixed a bug that affected anyone upgrading from versions 3.0 or 3.0.1 to 3.1 where your old font settings were not saved. If your settings are gone, all you have to do is select the same font in the same slot as before. The rest of your settings for that font (where it's used, custom css, etc) will still be there in many cases. In some cases you will not and you'll have to re-enter them. If they don't remember them, you can try to get them by visiting a cached version of your site on Google and copying the CSS the plugin provided in the source (view your webpage source to see it).
Version 3.1
- Rewritten back end, this time using AJAX and smarter logic so that loading the settings page is much faster
- Fixed bug that could potentially cause browsers to stall
- updated fallback list of Google Fonts (622 families)
- Corrected some notifications that people would see if WP_DEBUG was set to true
