  Hi @allegriatea,

  This is possible, but it requires custom CSS styling. Are you familiar with that?

  To style your site with custom CSS, you would also need at least a Personal plan for your WordPress.com site. Which WordPress.com plan is your site currently on?

  I am not familiar with custom CSS, it will be great if you can help provide the syntax. I am on premium plan and it comes with ability to have custom CSS.

  Ok, then we’ll give it a try =)

  When you’re logged into WordPress, click on My Sites in the upper, left corner, then click the Customize button next to Themes, then click CSS. You can probably see the following text in the small window that appears:

  /*
  Welcome to Custom CSS!

  To learn how this works, see http://wp.me/PEmnE-Bt
  */

  Below this text, I want you to insert the following CSS:

  h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
  text-transform: none;
  }

  In your current theme text-transform is set to uppercase, which makes all your headers (h1 – h6) big. With none, they will be set back to the default.

  In the window to the side, you can see a preview, and check if the headers have changed. If they have and you are satisfied, click the Save & Publish button in the top, left corner to save the changes you just made. If it didn’t work, let me know.

  BTW, if you want to learn more about custom CSS on WordPress, this would be a good place to start.

  Also, I realized I typed in a mistake in a previous answer:

  To style your site with custom CSS, you would also need at least a Personal plan for your WordPress.com site. Which WordPress.com plan is your site currently on?

  This is incorrect. To add custom CSS to a WordPress.com site, you’ll need a Premium plan or Business plan. Sorry about that.

  Thanks for helping out, jjberg83!

  allegriatea – I just checked the code he provided and it should do the trick, but it looks like you haven’t applied it yet. I’ll mark this thread as resolved but feel free to start a new one if you need help with anything else.
