Increasing Font Size

QuestionsCategory: CustomizationIncreasing Font Size
Kelly Stone asked 4 years ago

Hello! I tried to follow prior examples of increasing the font size on Hello Sassafras/HelloYou themes, but I do not seem to have the lines of code that are referenced? The text is super small on my blog posts and I would like to make it bigger as I have heard from several people it is too difficult to read. How do I go about making the font bigger?

That is indeed very tiny. It looks like you are using a plugin that is modifying it from the theme output. You can try this in your additional CSS and see if it works, but it may not because of the plugin. Right now it is set to 1rem Which is essentially 10px. The below should adjust it to at least 14px, you can change the rem, larger or smaller based on the look you would like.

body {
font-size: 1.4rem !important;
}

Make sure that you clear your cache after you change it, to see the changes.

I have not used a plugin that would change the size. It has been this way since I first had it installed by Hello You.

This plugin must have been installed prior then to the theme going in. When I inspect the code the plugin changing it is Weblizar Pinterest Feeds. Not sure why the CSS for that is hooking into that spot for the theme. But you can see that it has also changed the fonts as well. I’ve attached a screenshot that may help.  If that adjustment above does not help, we can make this private and get your login information to help with it.
