Plugin used to work, but stopped working. When I go to settings of the plugin I get an endless 'Loading your collections'. I can't get past that. Might be because of other influences. However the author of this plugin is not very active anymore and questions are not being answered. Last update plugin is long time ago. So I'm forced to deactivate the plugin.

It has a lot of different fonts and you can modify different parts in your theme. It's really useful and enjoyable.
