 * There is a particular Google font I’d like to use, but I’m not seeing in in my
   options inside of the plugin? It’s called “Didot”. Is this something I can easily
   add?

 * Hi Corey,
    There are two ways you can add this font.
 * **Recommended Method:** Sign up for a Google API key and enter it in the admin
   section. This way the latest fonts will be updated automatically. To do this 
   you would do the following:
    1. Follow [these instructions](https://developers.google.com/fonts/docs/developer_api#Auth)
       to get an API Key from google. Once you have an API key enter it in the settings
       page for this plugin.
    2. In your WordPress Admin Area go to: Settings > Google Fonts and click the Advanced
       Tab.
    3. Click the Save Google API Key button.
 * **Another Method:** I’ve now added this font to the list of webfonts (I normally
   update the font list manually every 2-3 weeks) so if you remove this plugin and
   re-install it you will have this font available to you. Please make sure you 
   do the following if you choose this method (to refresh the font list):
    1. In your WordPress Admin Area go to: Settings > Google Fonts and click the Advanced
       Tab.
    2. Click the Save Google API Key button.
 * I hope that helps, please give me a shout if you need any further assistance.

 * Hi, thanks so much for your reply. I’ve actually tried both routes so far with
   no luck.
 * On the recommended method, I’m going through the instructions but they do not
   match up with the options I have in the API interface. For example, it asks me
   to click the “Registered Apps” option in the left-hand navigation, and there 
   is no option called “Registered Apps”. So I’m stuck there.
 * I also tried the second option of erasing, and then reinstalling the app, and
   clicked save on the Google API key button, but the font is not showing up.
 * Here is a screenshot of what my options are in the API panel: [http://note.io/1jkFzJl](http://note.io/1jkFzJl)

 * Hi Corey,
    Google have recently updated this console admin and it looks like 
   they haven’t updated their instructions yet. Based on your screenshot try the
   following:
    1. Hover over and click the **Web Fonts Developer API** link
    2. Click the **Credentials** link located in the sidebar on the left hand side.
    3. Under the **Public API heading ** button click the **Create New Key** button
    4. Select the **Browser key** button and click the **Create** button
    5. Copy the key that is generated into the admin area
 * That should do it. Please let me know how you get on.
