  To change the title and the tagline font all at once.

  #main-title {
  font-family: your fonts here;
  }

  Site title only

  #main-title #site-title {
  font-family: your fonts here;
  }

  Site description only

  #main-title #site-description {
  font-family: your fonts here;
  }

  Hi I am also using the Chateau theme, and I was wondering if you knew the CSS to get rid of the section that says “Leave a Reply – Enter your comment here”?

  I don’t want any comments on my website.

  You don’t use CSS to get rid of comments. Go to settings > discussion in your dashboard and disable trackbacks and comments and save. That will turn comments off for all content you add from that point forward. For existing published content, you will have to turn that off separately. You can use the bulk edit feature in pages > all pages and posts > all posts to turn comments off on multiple pages or posts at one time.

  Another Chateau theme user with a question.

  I changed the CSS to remove the shadow box around the images. But after I did that it moved my ‘sidebar’ and it then became my ‘bottom bar’. How do I get it back to its rightful place on the right side?

  Thanks

  Your sidebar is right where it should be in Safari, Firefox and Opera, so you got this fixed?

  I changed it back to concise view to get the sidebar back to where it should be. But what I would really like to have my blog set up with the ‘detailed’ post view, with content then sidebar.

  This issue has nothing to do with the change you made in the CSS. The W3C validator is not operational at the moment, so I cannot check for sure, but I suspect there is some messed up code in one of your posts. If you scroll down your main page, you will find that all of a sudden your posts go to full-width at “Sneak Peak | Pretty Party + Designs”. I suspect that post is where the issue is.

  Go to settings > writing and select “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then click “save changes.”

  Now, starting with that post, open it in the editor, switch from the visual tab to the HTML tab (waiting for the page to refresh) and then switch back to the visual tag (again waiting for it to refresh), and then click “update post.” Check your blog and if it is back to normal, you are golden. If not, you might have to do the above on each post.

  Now that that is fixed, is there a way to slightly widen the content area with CSS?

  Glad we got that one out of the way.

  The overall maximum width of the theme is at 1000px, which is typically about as wide as I recommend since nearly a quarter of web surfers are still on 1024px wide monitor resolutions. The following however takes the overall width to 1200px. The content and sidebar widths are set as percentages, and I would not suggest narrowing the sidebar for aesthetic balance reasons.

  #page-inner, #footer-inner, #copyright-inner {
  max-width: 1200px;
  }
  
  #main-image {
  max-width: 1160px;
  }

  If you go with the above, then in the “maximum image and video width field below the CSS edit window, add 200px to whatever value is there. Any new images inserted into pages or posts will then be inserted at an increased width for the new wider content column.
