Hi again,
Am I able to change the size of the top search bar in the customizer? If so what section would be under? I have to wear computer glasses and it’s actually hard for me to see the type. I always have to lean in to see what I’m typing up there. I actually do use it to get to posts quickly when I’m sharing links to my site. So I figured if I’m having a hard time, others my age might be as well. Thank you.

If you go to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS you can add this

.search-div .search-form input[type=”search”] {
font-size: 1.6rem !important;
}

Then be sure to clear the cache. That will adjust it from a 10px to 16px size.

I can also hop on and do it if you would like.

Oh that’s great – I think I can handle this one – I’ll let you know if I get stuck. Thank you.

Hi, I tried to enter the code you showed above. I cleared cache and cookies and all that several times and the font won’t change. Any ideas?

Oh awesome – thanks
seriously, I’ve been having the craziest tech day today. Taking me hours to get stuff done because of things corrupting or just being buggy.
