  Some themes show your tagline, others don’t. Is there any way to make a theme show my tagline? Or, if I added my tagline to my title, is there a way to edit the font/style/size of the added text so it fits reasonably well?

  Hi there,

  You are correct that this differs from theme to theme. The theme you’re using, Pictorico, fortunately have the tagline outputted, only hidden. In that case, we can use custom CSS (which is part of the Custom Design upgrade), to show it.

  We can use the CSS to edit the tagline text, but I’m not sure what’s your standard of it fitting “reasonably well”. This is what I did with a quick CSS tinkering: http://cl.ly/image/3I251F3a2I0V

  You can see that it inevitably causes some additional space on the search and menu area.

  That’s great! Thanks. I just bought the custom design upgrade, so can you walk me through the CSS part, please?

  Sure,

  Here’s the CSS I made:

  .site-description {
  	display: block;
  	font-size: 14px;
  	margin-top: 0;
  	margin-bottom: 25px;
  	line-height: 1.25;
  }
  @media screen and (min-width: 885px) {
  	.main-navigation {
  		height: 149px;
  	}
  }
  @media screen and (min-width: 1180px) {
  	.main-navigation {
  		height: 110px;
  	}
  }

  In case you didn’t know, here’s the help page explaining where to put that CSS code: http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/editing-css/
