How do I change the font size on my wordpress theme on both the pages and posts? I have went in and made some changes, but nothing seems to happen. I appreciate any help. Here is the site: www.mymichiganautoinsurance.com


Thanks,

Jayson

    Look for the theme style sheet (extension css) probably in a directory called css.

    You should see something like this:

    body{
    font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 110%;
    }

    Changing the percentage may be the easiest if you want the same change across the site. If there is no font-size you could add a percentage here. Test it and see if it works!

    You may find that the fonts are specified throughout the style sheet, you can change these if you want to change only some of the sizes.

    Hopefully this will work, if not come back with more information & questions

    yes and a easyier way to figure out what to change is vew the page source of your site.. find the text you want to change check the "style" or "ID" and then find that code or # in your css file and start changing

    Its weird that more people dont talk about this topic. But after lots of searching I found a killer easy to use plugin to allow you to change the font family, size, etc with just a few clicks. Its called the TinyMCE advanced plugin. You can get it here: WordPress › TinyMCE Advanced WordPress Plugins

    Open style.css.Then change font in all "font-family" which font you want to keep.

    In style.css, the basic font is controlled by the line:
    body, select, input, textarea {font: 110% Arial, Verdana, Sans-Serif;}

    The font size for most of the content is controlled by the line:
    .entry {
    padding-top:5px;
    text-align:justify;
    font-size:9pt;
    }

    Changing these stylesheet entries will change all content unless it is over-ridden in an individual post or page by some inline styling, as would be done by use of the TinyMCE advanced plugin mentioned above.
