How do I increase my font size? Gateway theme.

  • Unknown's avatar

    I want to increase my main post body font size but it seems there’s no quick and easy option with my theme.

    I know if in the post editor I changed the text from ‘paragraph’ to ‘Heading 1’, it would be bigger but I feel like there’s a more logical way to do it. I thought I read somewhere that if you have too much ‘Heading 1’ text in your post, it’s not very SEO friendly and will drop far down search engine results.

    I’ve heard people mention CSS a being a solution to things like this. Is this a must if I want control over things like font size?

    Hi there!

    To change font size in posts without CSS would require adding HTML via the Text/HTML Editor. Add this code around the text you would like to modify.

    <span style="font-size:18px;">YOUR TEXT</span>
    Where “18px” is the font size you would like.

    To apply a font size to every blog post automatically without having to use the HTML Editor, CSS will be needed. Just drop this code in your CSS file and all should be swell:

    .entry-summary p {
        font-size: 18px;
    }
    
    .entry-content p {
        font-size: 18px;
    }

    Where entry-summary is for post summaries/excerpts (home page) and entry-content is for full posts (posts).

    I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions. :)
