  How can I increase the overall size of my blog in css? Right now its limited once you go past a certain size. I just want there to be a larger jquery or something

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

  You can use the following CSS code to change the font size on your blog:

  p {
  font-size: 30px;
  }

  The “p” will just need to be adjusted to reflect the element you’re looking to change. Is there a specific area of your site you’re looking to increase the size?

  I want to change the max size not the font size. It seems the jquery’s max out around 1200 px

  Hi there,

  It isn’t possible to change the max size of the Customizer shown here:

  

  Your current font selections have a max of 10 for the Headings and 3 for the Body text. However, you can use CSS to manually increase the size of each element. Just let me know the specific elements you’re looking to change, and I’ll provide the corresponding CSS!

  I’m not talking about fonts. I want to change the blog’s max width (right now it doesn’t size up all the way on a 15” screen)

  Hi,

  Try adding this to your Custom CSS:

  .site {
  	max-width: 1600px;
  }

  It should make your site wider (1600px wide, precisely) on larger screens, but still show up correctly on smaller ones.
