I have been installing fonts for years. They have always been successful. However, for some reason it's not working anymore.

I go into gimp/setting/folders/font
It shows where I need to place these new fonts
It says that it should be in:
Users/donald/Library/Application support/GIMP/2.10/fonts

As you can see by the screenshot that 123Marker.ttf is in this directory

Why does this not work?

Huh

Did you restart your computer or refresh your fonts folder?

Works for me, in 2.10 and 3.00 (in 3.00 the top of the font list is always the "Symbolic" fonts: "Sans" , "Monospace", etc...), using the TTF downloaded from dafont.com.

Why are the font names in your list starting with a dot? Since the dot ASCII code is smaller ASCII code those of the alphanumerics, 123Marker would appear after the dotted names so are you looking at the right place?
