Lane,
I’m sorry the video is not yet available. I will probably get to that this weekend. It is really quite simple, but for many it seems kind of confusing and intimidating. If you just follow these simple steps, you’ll have one in no time 🙂
1) Log in to your Gmail account (you need a Gmail account to access most Google stuff);
2) Next, go here https://cloud.google.com/console;
3) Create a project (example: “my google fonts” the name can be anything you want.);
5) Next, under “APIs & auth” click APIs and add “Web Fonts Developer API” (scroll down toward bottom… the API list is alphabetical);
4) After you turned on the “Web Fonts Developer API” go back to the main menu on the left, under “APIs & auth” click credentials (create new key);
5) Finally, copy the API key under “Key for Browser Applications” and paste it into the settings and update… that’s it.
Hope this helps. I will have the videos up this weekend. Don’t forget to rate and review the plugin and let us know what you think!

I had no problem following the above. I wish people weren’t so in love with videos.
In step 5, the user is only presented with the label “Browser Key.” The “Key for Browser Applications” doesn’t show up until later.
Thanks for the help and the slick plugin!

So, When i try to input my api key nothing happens. The page reloads. But, nothing changes? I’m following the instructions step by step. Please help.
@kenrhem, please create a new thread. This one is marked as “resolved”.
