  The font-size for your post headers is currently set to 10px. To change this, insert the following CSS snippet into your custom CSS editor:

  .wf-active .entry-title, .wf-active .entry-title a {
  font-size: 10px;
  }

  Increase or decrease the font size value as you wish. Hope this is what you were looking for, let me know.

  Hey, thanks! One more question — is there any way to increase the size of those gray title boxes [see my layout] so that when my titles are long you can still read them clearly? Currently, you can only see the full title if you scroll over them, which enlarges the title box.

  Hey. Yes, you can add the following CSS to stop the long title’s being cut off:

  .blog .entry-title a, .archive .entry-title a {
  overflow: visible;
  }

  Thanks! But when I make the font any bigger than 11 it stills gets cut off. Is there any way for me to make those gray boxes slightly bigger so this doesn’t happen? Thanks again.

  Try this.

  .blog .entry-title, .archive .entry-title {
  min-height: 50px;
  }
  
  .blog .hentry .entry-thumbnail, .archive .hentry .entry-thumbnail {
  top: 50px;
  }

  You have to edit the post thumbnail and the entry title. Took me a few minutes to figure it out.

  Hi guys, I changed my layout to Sight and have a question. Is there a way for me to edit the text that shows up in the “blurb” area next to each post on the front page?

  I want to be able to put the most interesting quote next to each post so that it doesn’t just display whatever starts the actual post.

  The Sight Theme supports post excerpts, and this page shows how to set them up:

  In the future, would you mind asking new CSS help requests separately at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/css-customization/#postform ? It helps make support easier, and it helps make it easier to search through theme-specific issues later. :)
