So I’ve imported my fonts from Google the way I always do, Here is the google font I’m using:
@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Muli:400,300,300italic,400italic);

The font is importing but when I change the weight from font-weight: 300 to font-weight: 400 for say the body text or an h1, nothing happens. For some reason it isn’t acknowledging the weight. Now, I tried importing this same font to an older version of the Legacy theme and it worked just fine. This is the first time I’ve run into this issue.

Do I have to take extra steps to import fonts now for some reason?

In the new update I’ve added the default Oswald Google Font in the functions file. It should look like this –
```
//* Enqueue Lato Google font
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'genesis_sample_google_fonts' );
function genesis_sample_google_fonts() {
	wp_enqueue_style( 'google-font', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Oswald:400,300|Open+Sans', array(), PARENT_THEME_VERSION );
}
```
You should still be able to add it to the stylesheet if you want though, both ways should work fine.

Unfortunately, for some reason you can no longer just use the @import css line for it to work. I had to go in and adjust your php to add the font I want. It’s now working. Thanks for the help!

Oh I didn’t know that about the css. I’ll keep that in mind if it comes up again. Thanks for letting me know!
