  Hello, I’m using twenty fourteen theme and the page titles automatically appear capitalised. Is there a way to undo this?

  Thanks

  You will want to add some CSS to the .entry-title class which has uppercase as the style change upper case to capitalize

  .entry-title {
  text-transform: capitalize;
  }

  Let me know if this works.

  Thanks, it’s mostly worked. Now just the first letter of each word is capitalised but I don’t want small words like “The” to begin with a capital. Can the code be refined to achieve this?

  Try setting it to none.

  text-transform: none;

  that should render the text as you type it in.

  I checked http://abrahamspath.wordpress.com/ and I see you already figured this out using the following custom CSS:

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

  Nice work!

  Oh! I must have had this open in a tab and I didn’t see cousett’s replies before I posted. Sorry, cousett!! The answers above look great! Btw, if you put a backtick character around your code blocks, they will get some nice formatting applied here in the forums.
