Change Font size and color on home page

    I want my home page to be a static page (which I have learned to do) – and an introduction to my website. Because of that, I want to adjust the font and color of the “sub-headings” on this home page…. but other pages on the site (like blog posts) I want to use the same customized font that I selected using the customizer toolbar with Misty.

    Is it possible to make these kinds of multiple customized font adjustments on just one page? For example: I would want the subheadings of Products Offered and Services Offered in a larger, bolder, more colorful font.

    I hope I have made sense of what I find quite confusing….

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

    Hi there,

    All I want to achieve is to turn ALL the text on my blog from black to white as Ive selected a dark background.

    I just cant seem anywhere to do this without buying the upgrade. Surely something as basic as a black or white font should be free?

    Thanks.

    That’s possible.

    Here is some information about how font stacks work in CSS:

    CSS is theme-specific, so if you need further help just post a link to a page where we can see those subheadings. I checked http://steppingstonespublications.wordpress.com/ and I couldn’t see any subheadings there.

    You do indeed need the upgrade to make customizations like turning all the text from black to white. At WordPress.com, basic hosting is free and there are no monthly hosting fees. However, we make money by charging for optional paid upgrades and changing the theme design such as the color scheme is one of those optional paid upgrades here.

    If you setup and manage the WordPress software on a web hosting account where you pay a monthly fee for the server, then you get access to all the code and you can make visual changes without additional costs but most hosting plans do not come with any free support for design so you would either need to hire help or use the volunteer-based WordPress.org support forums at http://wordpress.org/support/
