  I’m using blissful blog as my theme, and there is no option to increase the size of the menus. They’re very hard to read, and if I change the size of headers or fonts, it doesn’t touch the menus. Is this something that can be fixed?
  My other suggestion is the option for left and right content, and not just footer. This may not look right, but it’s just an idea. I think changing the size of the menu name is an option you need to have.

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

  Hello there,

  Because you have the Premium upgrade on your site, you can use CSS code to adjust the size of the font in your menu.

  If you’d like to give this a try, click Appearance → Customize in your site’s Dashboard. Then, click CSS in your right-hand menu. In the CSS Revisions box, please paste the following underneath all existing text:

  .main-navigation ul {
  font-size: 1.3em;
  }

  Then Save your changes.

  That should do the trick! If I can help in any other way, please drop me a line.

  My other suggestion is the option for left and right content, and not just footer.

  I’m not entirely certain what you’re trying to accomplish here. If you could tell me your goal, I can help further.

  Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

  Thank you, the menus look so much better when they’re larger! I’m just learning all of this. As far as the menus, in this theme you only have a choice to put widgets at the footer, and I think it should have options for right and left side of the page too.

  Hi again!

  Great! If you’re ever interested in editing your own CSS, you might like this:

  As far as the menus, in this theme you only have a choice to put widgets at the footer, and I think it should have options for right and left side of the page too.

  It’s all a matter of personal taste. Many themes will behave the way you want…other themes are laid out to suit other users. I like sidebars, too :)

  If you ever want to hunt for another theme, you can filter by “sidebar,” “two column,” or “three columns” in the Theme Showcase:

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
