   I noticed that this video/instructions are dated 2015 and the screenshots, etc. are different. When I tried to embed the Google Fonts code in my header.php file as shown, it threw an error. So I’m thinking maybe this tutorial needs to be updated? Not sure, but… Thanks.

   I got the font to show up but can’t figure out how to get it bold.
   Here’s an example of what i did in the css

   font-family:”Open Sans”, sans-serif;
   font-weight:bold;

   in the link i added to my header.php i added this:

   i tried subbing 700 for bold but no luck…
   any ideas?

   thanks in advance

     Make sure you check your desired font-weights on Google fonts after selecting them in the “customize” tab.

   One quick question – I looked up the code reference for wp_enqueue_style(). Its first argument is a string that denotes the name of the stylesheet. In your example, you use ‘wpb-google-fonts’ for the first argument. How can I tell what to put here for my site?

    What does ‘false’ do in this function? Other enqueued functions don’t include it.

    Thank you.

      that’s the argument for header or footer. Since best practice is to put [almost] all scripts in the header it defaults to ‘true’ => footer, whereas ‘false’ would mean the NOT in the footer, but in the header instead.

      Unfortunately, font scripts stop everything else from loading, so putting them in the header sucks a litlte bit, which is why this article talks about making sure you’re only including the fonts you’ll actually use. On the flip side, putting them in the footer can cause default fonts like arial to load momentarily on your screen during painting until the webfont gets loaded. It’s a horrible caveat, but it is what it is.

      A practice I’m working into my workflow is to conditionally load fonts based on their usage in the site. For example, maybe “bold” is only used in h2’s and h3’s in blog post templates (single.php), then I’ll write a conditional enqueue for the bold script to only be enqueued when on single.php template.

      Hope that helps.

      返信

      • Kev

        Also, to note.

        By “bold” above, I meant a specific bold version of a font family. <= just a head's up.

    I’m using the Punch Fonts plugin to add google fonts but I am not sure how to just get only heading 1 for the desired font. I don’t need this font for headings 2-6 so I only want to use the google font for heading one. How do I write that in the parameter?

    Hello,

    I have tried all three methods but neither of them took effect completely. It seems that it only applies to certain elements and not to others that I specified with that font in the style sheet

    When I use the Element Inspector for the element where my Google Font is not applied, this is what I see:
    #site-title {
    font-family: \’Questrial\’, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

    What do these mean \\ around my font? I mean, it looks like it is indicating an error but I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong? What could it be? Some code overriding mine, with higher priority? but where? how? Arghhhh it’s driving me nuts

    Hi there,

    Using Genesis and the Parallax Pro theme…
    But a newb to things like php etc

    I added this code to the fuctions.php file as you insctructed:
    add_action( ‘genesis_meta’, ‘wpb_add_google_fonts’, 5);

    function wpb_add_google_fonts() {
    echo ”;
    }

    The headers that use the font above remain unchanged.

    Questions:
    1. Am I right in assuming that the code above is the only thing that I add?
    2. Where exactly should the code be added – at the beginning or end of fuctions.php?
    2. Is there anything missing from the code?
    3. Should I be adding something to the style.css file?

    Appreciate your help
    Regards
    Greg

      Greg, seems alright to us. We think WordPress probably omitted the part from your code where you echoed font link. Yes you will need to use CSS to set style rules for selectors where you want to use your Google font.

    None of the above is good enough, we all know “wp_enqueue_style( ‘google-font’)” is the “technically correct way to call a script, but in this case your <header will end up like this;

    FONT 1:
    FONT 2:
    FONT 3:
    FONT 4:

    No Good, it needs to be like this:

    function wpb_add_google_fonts () {

    Hi,

    I was so proud of myself for copying the code and changing the font which, I found too large for my site. When I tried to change it to something else, I must have mixed something up, and only one font style continues to show, even when I play about with the codes. Feeling like a dunce now – I don’t talk tech. Can anyone help me? I’ve done it with and without the numbers in case they’re not actually part of it. Thanks. This is the latest that I entered…..

    /* Import Fonts
    ———————————————————— */

    1 add_action( ‘genesis_meta’, ‘wpb_add_google_fonts’, 5);
    2
    3 function wpb_add_google_fonts() {
    4 echo ”;
    5 }

    How can you use multiple Google Fonts in the functions.php ?

    I had this:

    //* Enqueue Google fonts
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'executive_google_fonts' );
    function executive_google_fonts() {
    	wp_enqueue_style( 'google-font', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400italic,700italic,400,700', array(), CHILD_THEME_VERSION );
    	wp_enqueue_style( 'google-font', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Dancing+Script:400italic,700italic,400,700', array(), CHILD_THEME_VERSION );
    }
    
    

    But the Dancing Script wasn’t showing up font on my second computer or iPhone or tablet.
    I removed the Open Sans and it started working.

    • WPBeginner Support

      @Karissa, the first argument in wp_enqueue_style function is the handle for the style script you are loading. Try this code instead:

      //* Enqueue Google fonts
      add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'executive_google_fonts' );
      function executive_google_fonts() {
      	wp_enqueue_style( 'google-font', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400italic,700italic,400,700', array(), 20131111 );
      	wp_enqueue_style( 'google-font-2', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Dancing+Script:400italic,700italic,400,700', array(), 20131111 );
      }

        Nevermind, I figured out that I needed to use a link like this:

        ‘//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Euphoria+Script|Rouge+Script|Montez|Federo|Great+Vibes|Clicker+Script|Dancing+Script:400,700|Satisfy|Ruthie|Rochester|Open+Sans|Open+Sans+Condensed:300’

        Ahh I see, I replied above before refreshing the page and seeing your reply.

        By using the link Google gives when you have multiple fonts selected, it produces it like that and you can more easily try out different fonts live on site.

    Something I missed here were the conditional comments to make Google’s webfonts work in IE8 and below if you request more than one font weight. For example:

    <link href=”http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Cabin:400,700″ rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />

    That’s why I created a function for loading fonts: https://github.com/mzilverberg/LoadGoogleWebfonts

    My script also places the appropriate fallback urls within a conditional comment.
    With a few lines of code you could also make this work in functions.php in your Wordpress theme.

          I was actually wondering how to do the same thing (and this is the first result that popped up on Google).

          I know plug-ins exist to add Google Webfonts functionality to the WYSIWYG editor, but they bog it down like crazy. I’m going to look into it further and see if there’s an easy way to add a font or two.

    Thanx a lot for sharing, I’m really happy with this. I’m a Genesis user and started using @import because it’s alraedy being done in the stylesheet. Feel much better about this solution.

    This is what I use…..

    Add this to your theme’s functions.php file:

    /*----------------------------------*/
    /* Load CSS Files
    /*----------------------------------*/	
    	if(!function_exists('load_theme_styles'))
    	{
    		function load_theme_styles()
    		{		
    			if (!is_admin()) {
    				
    				$cssURL = get_template_directory_uri().'/css/';
    				$fontURL = 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lora|Oswald';
    				
    				// Registering New Styles	
    				wp_register_style('googleFont', $fontURL);					
    				wp_register_style('style', $cssURL.'/style.css', 'googleFont', '1.0', 'screen');
    				wp_register_style('print', $cssURL.'/print.css', 'googleFont', '1.0', 'print');
    				
    				// Enqueing Styles
    				wp_enqueue_style('googleFont');	
    				wp_enqueue_style('style');
    				wp_enqueue_style('print');			
    				
    			}
    		}
    	}
    	add_action('wp_enqueue_style', 'load_theme_styles');
    

    What do you think about this?

    返信

    • Editorial Staff

      Google Fonts are great, but not everyone uses it (considering the amount of folks who use WordPress). WordPress has a 95% rule. If the feature would not satisfy 95% of the audience, then it is usually falls in the plugins category. However, sometimes exceptions are made. We can assure you that the Core WP team, will not make this into an exception though

    i dont understand the second part which is adding font to the genesis add action thing.. is that another method to add in google web font?

    and i know we dont have to incld all styles of the font, but the recommended method, which is http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lora|Oswald

    just for instance, what if i only want bold style for lora and light style for oswald, then how to combine the font styles?

    thanks

      The second part is for Genesis Users ONLY. If you are not using the Genesis Theme Framework, then you don’t need that part. To combine styles like you want, here is how you do it:

          Avoiding the google fonts plugin because it is a plugin is not a good reason at all. Using the plugin actually provides you with much more flexibility than including it in your theme, especially if you ever choose to change themes.

        • Editorial Staff

          As far as I’m concerned, fonts in most cases are considered stylistic elements thus theme based, and they usually change when you switch to a different theme.

    The “Right” way would be to use the wp_enqueue_style function Here’s some more thoughts: http://kovshenin.com/2012/on-wordpress-theme-frameworks/

    返信

    • Editorial Staff

      Konstantin, I totally agree with you. wp_enqueue_style function should always be used. That is what I tried doing first as suggested by Nathan Rice, in StudioPress’s article about Google Fonts. Except Google clearly states, that the font styles should be loaded before anything else. Using wp_enqueue_style and then printing them using wp_print_styles, this was printing the item after the main stylesheet was already loaded. That was the reason why I had to hook into genesis_meta() hook. Anyways, totally agree with your thoughts on your article.
