  I’m making some changes to my blog with the Notepad theme. The one thing I have not been able to do is change the color of the title and the description in the header. I’ve spent most of the afternoon playing with the customizer and color pallettes. I can change everything except the two lines I want to modify. I’d try some custom CSS but I have no way of entering it in the source code where it needs to be. I’m stumped. Can someone steer me in the right direction?

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

  Follow up. I put this code in the custom CSS. The logo and description classes were used in the default CSS, so I figured if I had them down further with my specs, the cascade would pick it up and make the change. It didn’t. It doesn’t respond to anything. I’m starting to think that it’s a bug in the Notepad theme. Anyway, here’s what I tried.

  font-style:italic;

  vertical-align: middle;
  }

  .description {

  color: #f1bc41;
  font-size: 14px;
  font-weight: bold;
  text-align: left;
  vertical-align: middle;
