  Hi all,

  My blog is http://nyudri.org/.

  I know it’s embedded in the site’s CSS script to transform the title text into uppercase, so it reads “NYU DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH INSTITUTE.”

  What can I change to make it lowercase, such that it reads, “NYU Development Research Institute”? (This is how it’s written in the dashboard.)

  I assume the fix is somewhere in here:

  /* 2.3 Header */
  #topsearch  { width: 300px; line-height: 0; }
  #topsearch #searchform_top  { margin: 14px 0 0 0; }
  #topsearch h3 {	display: none; }
  #topsearch .widget { margin: 0; }
  
  #header{padding:45px 0;clear:both;position:relative;}
  
  #logo  { margin: -16px 0 0 0; }
  #logo img  { }
  
  .site-title { font: 72px/58px Impact,Helvetica,arial,sans-serif; text-transform: uppercase; margin: 0; padding: 16px 0 0 0; display: block; }
  .site-title a:link, .site-title a:visited {	color: #000; text-decoration: none; }
  
  #description  { width: 620px; padding:0 20px 0 0; line-height:55px; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; text-decoration: none; color: #fff; }
  
  #header-image {	clear: both; padding: 12px 0 0 0; }
  #header-image img {	border: 5px solid #efefef; clear: both; }

  I tried to repaste that in the stylesheet editor, removing “uppercase” from site-title, but it didn’t work. What was I doing wrong?

  Thanks!

  The following will mean it will honor the case of the title you typed in at settings > general. Add this to the bottom of your custom CSS.

  .site-title {
  text-transform: none;
  }
