HTML How to Make a Website Customizing Colors and Fonts Pick Fonts and Set Relative Units

Fonts not changing at all, no matter which font choice I pick from google fonts.

I have picked different multiple fonts from google fonts and after copying the HTML code and adding h1 text-family in css, I go to refresh and preview what it looks like and its still the same default. I dont know what to do, and I'm starting to get a bit frustrated.

My html link looks like this:

<link  href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Abril+Fatface"rel= "stylesheet" type="text/css' > 

My Css:

<p>h1 {font-family: 'Abril Fatface', cursive;
    margin: 15px 0;
    Font-size: 1.75em;
    }</p>

Your combining the " symbol with the ' symbol. Try using only the ' in this case. So your code will look like:

<link  href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Abril+Fatface 'rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' > 

Your CSS code is good and doesn't need changed.

If this helped you and solved your problem, please mark it as the best answer! Thanks!

Follow these steps are you are good to go. Past the font code provided by 'google fonts' as the FIRST element in the HEAD section of your html document.

<head>
<link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Raleway:400,500,700,800|Lora:400,400italic,700,700italic' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
</head>

Next add the fonts you included with CSS like this

body {
font-family: 'Raleway', sans-serif;
}

Following these steps would make any font of your choice work Mark my answer as the best if i managed to solve ur problem

EDIT: Nevermind. I found the issue, thank you for the help.
