  Can not make menu tabs a bigger font. why is that. I’m told it has to do with CSS but can’t find it.

  Hi there, adjusting the size of your theme’s navigation bar font would require the ability to edit the theme’s CSS, which is available with the premium and business plan upgrades. More about that here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-fonts/

  If all you want to do is temporarily increase the size of the font in the browser, you can use the browser’s zoom function.

  I’m looking at them right now. If I change the theme. is there a lot of things I have to fix?

  You can preview the theme in the Customizer before actually switching. That should give you the best idea if things will change drastically. In many cases (but not all), it’s any Custom menu and/or sidebar widgets that need to be readjusted.

  You might also need to resize your images (up or down) to fit the new theme dimensions. Make sure you look at the theme’s showcase page for information. When looking at your site’s front page, click on the action bar in the lower right corner of your browser window (you might need to scroll down then up to see it) and then “Get theme.”

  I changed the theme and it’s nice, but a lot of my content squished into the middle. any way of fixing that?

  Looking at the theme’s showcase page https://wordpress.com/theme/bosco it seems this is the way that theme displays content. In order to change that would require a paid upgrade.

  When “shopping” for a theme, make sure you look at the theme demo sites or preview your own content first. That is the best way to see how the content looks.

  I have everything figured out now justjennifer, the only thing. for some reason, there are some fonts that are very big on one of my pages. and don’t know how to make them smaller. it’s above a couple videos.

  Yes, and it is even bigger on some other blog posts, such as Getting on board-Traveling with a disability. (temp screenshot)

  I’ve tagged this for Staff to have a look. Please be patient for their reply.

  Hi there,

  It appears that your theme shows titles differently based on the post format applies to a post. In this case, the two posts with the bigger titles are set to the Standard post format, while the other posts are all set to the Video post format. If you edit those two posts and set them to Video as well, the titles will display the same as other posts.
