 * Thanks for the free plugin which I have been using across a few WordPress sites.
   It would be great if the validation errors were fixed, surely it would be relatively
   straight forward for you to do. I tried looking online and then making some changes
   to the google-fonts.php file, however I could not get it to work.
 * I was hoping the validation errors were going to be fixed in the latest version…
 * **&amp** instead of **&** and also **%20** instead of **|**
 * Error: & did not start a character reference. (& probably should have been escaped
   as &.)
 * Bad value [http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Rajdhani:400,500,600](http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Rajdhani:400,500,600)
   |Open+Sans:400,400italic,600,600italic,700,700italic&subset=latin for attribute
   href on element link: Illegal character in query: not a URL code point.

 * We have the same type of W3C validation error with our site.
 * Our validator results are here: [https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gypsycomms.com%2F](https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gypsycomms.com%2F)
 * Errors 3 and 4 on the validator page stem from the HTML inserted by this plugin.
   The ‘&subset=latin’ should probably be escaped to ‘&subset=latin’.
 * I hope this issue will be fixed soon. I know the plugin is free–if you need help
   with it, I’d be glad to pitch in. I love using it in projects.

 * I’m trying to get rid of all errors, so I’m contacting every plugin or service
   that has errors.
 * If there is something I can do to help you fix these problems, please let me 
   know.
