  change site title font – you’ve changed the way i can design my site since I first set it up. I have a premium site and should be able to customise my theme – twenty eleven – but I’m not being given the option in the side bar to change my SITE TITLE – only the headings and text. It’s driving me crazy! Please explain how I can do this. I don’t mind buying typekit etc – but I’m only being given the over-simplified side bar options to play with.

  Hi there,

  Are you trying to change the color of your site title or the font? Currently, when I change the Header font under Appearance -> Customize -> Font, the font of the Site Title is also changed.

  Alternatively, if you’re looking to change the color, you can do so using the following CSS script:

  h1#site-title a {
  	color: #fff;
  }

  Just place it under Appearance -> Customize -> CSS. You can adjust the #fff color to whatever you would like!

  Let me know if you need anything else!

  Thanks – I’m happy with the colour. I just want to change the font but I want my header font to remain the same – so it doesn’t work for me if they both change. I set up the site so the title and headers are different. Can I now not change this without making them the same..?

  Hi there,

  You definitely can change the font for the title separately from the headings on your side. In order to do so, you’ll need to use CSS. You can use the following code:

  h1#site-title a {
  	font-family: ;
  }

  After “font-family”, just specify the font you want to use. Here’s a bit of info concerning how that attribute works:

  If you’re having trouble, please let me know what font you’re trying to use in your site title, and I’ll make it happen!
