    Hi All I have changed the fonts on my headings, menu and buttons to open sans condensed form Oswald.

    I've just checked my css there is no mention of oswald anywhere and yes I've saved the file, so why is my browser still showing oswald and not open sans condensed.

    When i click on inspect element and checked the fonts they say oswald i'm going insane what am i doing wrong.

    I've cleared browser cache, flushed cache in my hosting provider.

    I don;t know what else to do, I am using w3 cache which is a fairly new addition so maybe its something to do with that.

    Really appreciate any help! thanks in advance!

    Try a hard reset of your browser (Ctrl + F5), delete cookies.
    Purge the W3 total cache or deactivate the plugin while you are making changes to the site.
    You haven“t changed all instances of Oswald to Open Sans.
    E.g.

    h1,
    h2,
    h3,
    h4,
    h5,
    h6 {
    	color: #000;
    	font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;

    Thanks Christoph

    I have just cleared w3 total cache - that didnt work, i deactivated it - that didnt work I have gone into my style sheet pressed CMD-F to search for oswald there are no instances in my style sheet. I searched for font-family the only fonts being used are open sans and open sans condensed but I am still seeing oswald in my browser.

    this is driving me insane!

    Please post a link to the site and I'll be happy to troubleshoot this for you.
    You can do it via a private reply if you deem it fit, either way I'm willing to help.

    That does not make sense.
    Are you editing the right style.css?
    The style.css for eleven40-pro (http://screencast.com/t/cGjQu6ai) and not the one for Genesis (http://screencast.com/t/1t0E1XTeV7h)?

    Can you please go to around line 232 of the style.css

    h1,
    h2,
    h3,
    h4,
    h5,
    h6 {
    	color: #000;
    	font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;

    and tell me if you see Oswald or Open Sans?
