Hi

A clients site suddenly looked a bit 'off' i realised that the Google Font 'Federo' that the template uses seems to be missing from Google fonts, I realise it's not really a Gavick issue but any ideas? Do Google just 'pull' a font?

Even the Gavick demo of Boutique has lost the font :)

Hi,
probably :
1) Google have a temporary error
2) Google have disabled this font for important reasons.


Now looks it works:

Check the Boutique demo - it's not working....

Is it possible to find out why it's been disabled and if it's likely to be re-enabled?

Hmm, maybe it's too late or I'm blind, but I see this font on my demo and on our demo page. //firefox 25//

if it would be disabled - you have to ask Google support "why" not us.

You can always do this:
1) http://fontpro.com/federo-font-16372 --- download font
2) http://www.gavick.com/documentation/gen ... onal-font/


Check if you added right url/name
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Federo

p.s.
For me Google font is working without problems.

My apologies...

It seems it's a Firefox issue but I'm still confused, the Google Fots page displays everything correctly, however the site does not, could u check if it displays on FF for u?

1) On my Firefox v.25 - Oswad font is available on your page.
2) Change favicon - default joomla doesn't look good :whistle:
3) Your page is about relax etc. I suggest to change background image from "concrete texture" to somethings else more relaxing.

I still can't get the Google fonts to display on FF, could an admin take a look on the backend and check i have the correct url's - works fine in Chrome :(

Hmm, I have checked again, on FF 25 I see "Oswald" font in action --> for example in Menu and article titles in VM.
Please go to your friends to check on their computers if see Google Fonts on your page.
