Linking our Font

This is the part where we get to assign one of the many Google Fonts to our new font control, called Awesome Font. When you installed the plugin, Wordpress installed hundreds of great fonts.

If you want to look at samples of each of these fonts, go to https://fonts.google.com/. It's up to you to choose one you like but for the purposes of this tutorial, we're going to choose one called Short Stack.

Click on Edit Font and then the dropdown box under Font Family. Then start typing in Short Stack:

Next, click on the Appearance tab and change the font size to 25px:

Lastly, click on Font Color and change it to BLUE:

Next, we're going to look at an HTML tag that we need in order to use our font in pages and posts.

Nah...I only like 20:20 because it goes so fast...mind you...the last few tests have been all over red rover the fastest I have ever known...how embarrassing for US!

I'm an AFL'er in winter...tennis in summer...I don't have time for anymore than that!!! :)

I'm doing 2 internet marketing courses at the moment...WA and another one based in UK...keeps me juggling a few balls in the air most of my waking hours! :)
