Hi, whats the easiest way to change font settings on a wordpress post? Is there supposed to be a text editor in there somewhere that I don't see? My head swims when people say "edit the css" should I copy from word? thanks

    Login to your wordpress dashboard. Navigate to Appearance > Editor > and main style.css should come up.

    Hope that helps

      I'm having the same issue.. I didn't think it would be this difficult to change fonts in Wordpress. I'm using the Adolpho theme and have been through 10 plug ins by now and I'm too scared to mess with the css!! My site looks so tacky with all the different font :-(

        I don't get it. Usually, the "different fonts" are the result of ignorant users fiddling with things they don't understand.

        I have seen many themes and they all come with fonts settings consistent with their design.

        Furthermore, people are not even able to formulate clearly their question: is the desired change site-wide or only for certain posts/Pages?

        If site-wide - get a new theme that you like the fonts in. Period.

        If only on a single post... then the obvious question is: WHY? Why would you want to go from consistent to inconsistent?

        These are the real questions to ask before messing with the fonts

    I'm afraid that if you want to change the font on your site you are going to need to edit the stylesheet.

    However, there is a tool that makes it easier and this article sets out the process:
