A Question about the Title Font size

    thebiggrayhouse · Member ·

    so I ended up kind of starting over on my layout, an was wondering if there was a way to change the Font/Font size of the Title of the Blog.

    i looked under the Typography under Appearance, but Title is not listed there – and when i go into the edit area of the title and Navigation, font isn’t a choice option that I can find.

    and I have to say – I have never done anything with CSS before, but if that is the only way, i will have to learn

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there @thebiggrayhouse,

    Thanks for reaching out, and I totally get wanting your blog’s title to look just right—it makes a big difference!

    If you’re looking to update your site title specifically, here’s how you can do it:

    1. Go to Appearance > Editor.
    2. Select Templates (like your homepage or the “All Pages” template).
    3. Click on the header area and select the Site Title block.
    4. In the right-hand sidebar (Block settings), scroll to Typography—there, you can adjust the font size (you can use preset sizes or type in a custom size using px, em, etc.).
      Check this guide for reference: Site Title Block Settings

    If you’re editing general headings (like those used in your posts), go to Styles > Typography > Headings to customize their look globally.
    Guide: Style your site

    And no worries if you’re new to CSS—these changes can be made without writing any code!
    Let me know if you’d like help with anything else as you shape your new layout.

    that worked perfectly ty.

    follow-up question – prior to adding the image to the main page, now when I create a new page, it places the entire header from the front page onto them – and I do not want that. is there any way to make it not carry the main page image/header text to every page thereafter?

    Hi @thebiggrayhouse

    Great follow-up question.

    It sounds like your homepage header is being reused on other pages because they’re using the same template and header layout.

    If you’d like to use a different header or footer for specific pages, this guide explains how to set that up:

    And if you want to go a bit deeper, this one shows how to create a new page template to assign those custom parts to:

    Let us know if you have any other questions!

    I will look at the 1st link – I started playing around with creating a custom template page, and kind of learning by trial and error LOL – that is usually a good way for me.

    appreciate the replies – you guys are awesome
