  I have been attempting to Customize my CSS, specifically the size of the title heading. I have done everything I can think of as well as follow suggestions on the forum, and its still not working. PLEASE HELP!

  Hello,

  It seems that your CSS might need to have !important added to the end of the line.

  .site-header h1 {
  	font-size: 900% !important;
  }

  Try that and see if it works – and then you you can set it to the final size you like. Let me know if it takes!

  Best,
  Ian

  Thanks! That worked!

  Now where do I find the editor feature? I would like to add “next and previous” buttons to navigate from page to page. I can’t seem to locate it.

  Thank you!

  You would like to add buttons to navigate from page to page? If you’re looking to navigate between “Pages” and not pages of blog posts, you may be intending to edit your theme’s HTML or PHP.

  We can’t do that on WordPress.com, unfortunately, for security and stability reasons. It’s a feature of the open source software available for download from WordPress.org.

  If you want to add pagination within a single page or post, you can use “NextPage”. Here’s information on how to do it:

  Does that help?

  Bummer! But yes it does.

  I still can’t find the editor where I can alter/add code. I know how to alter the CSS now, but not the html file. Help one more time?

  Hi Amanda,

  Can you explain to me what you’re trying to do? It may not be possible if it requires editing of the theme’s HTML.

  Best,
  Ian
