Changing the appearance of custom menu and submenu (Suburbia theme)

  Okay, this is a non-issue:

  Also, clicking on the ‘Print culture/book history’ category sometimes gives weird shifts to the whole block. And at other times it doesn’t.

  It’s just the small number of posts removing the scrollbar!

  It is even more strange if you zoom out as the posts begin to shift out of grid. Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

  I had never noticed this! It happens in the out-of-the box version of the theme too, so you/we aren’t doing anything wrong, and there’s nothing you can do (other than report it in the Themes forum in case WP wants to do something about it).

  get rid of the similar grey rule on the pages

  Add this:

  #single h1 {
  border: 0 none !important;
  margin-top: 10px !important;
  }

  there seems to be a green shadow. Is this changeable?

  To me that green smear looks as if there’s something wrong with my eyes or my monitor, so I would get rid of it:

  #single strong {
  text-shadow: none;
  }

  Couple of other suggestions:

  a) Since the category etc pages are still too short, you could add this (temporarily):

  .archive #access ul ul, .error404 #access ul ul {
      display: none;
  }

  b) On the homepage there’s a problem above the footer: column 1 no border, columns 2-4 two borders, column 5 one border. Also I think it should look like the header. So I would suggest you replace this addition:

  .middle {
      border-bottom: 1px solid #BFBFBF;
      margin-bottom: 0;
  }

  with this:

  .middle {
  margin-bottom: -5px;
  }
  .footer {
  border-top: 7px solid #E0E0E0;
  }

  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

  Things seem to be in place now, more or less. But suddenly there’s a ‘Related’ section appearing under each post page. Must remove or else format it better!

  You’re welcome!

  The “Related” section is a new feature WP is testing. You should be able to disable it in Settings > Reading.

  (As for the other thing: you don’t need to acknowledge anything in your credits; but if you wish to, I don’t mind either.)

  Hi again, I was wondering if there is a way to increase the font-size and line-height all across the posts and pages, without having to wrap the text in <div> or <span>? There is, of course, the Fonts (heading, body text) option in the customisation menu but that doesn’t provide any control of the line-spacing and it adds the size change to other bits on the home page, which I don’t want.

  The same for block quotes, which you can see here: http://contextualternate.com/hamiltonian-system/

  What I’ve done so far is

  blockquote {
  	background: none;
  	margin-top: 0;
  	margin-left: 30px;
  	padding-top: 0;
  	padding-left: 30px;
  	padding-bottom: 0;
  	text-shadow: none;
  
  }

  This however does not let me change ‘font-color’ or ‘line-height’ so that must be getting defined somewhere else I’m not able to locate. It looks a bit blurry for some reason, which I’m guessing is the colour but may be some other font attribute.

  Will be grateful as ever for your help. Many thanks!
