Change font on about page

Hi Lisa,

Did you want to change the font-size for the entire page, or just the content portion and not the sidebar? Looks like some of the font size has been changed within the page, so I’m not sure exactly which text you’d like to change, but with a few more details I would be happy to help you adjust the css. Thanks.

Will

Hi Will,

Thanks so much for getting back to me.

I’d like to change the font size for the text that starts with Hello and welcome to The Creative Canvass and ends with Thanks so much for stopping by!

If I could change the sidebar text to that would be great.

I hope this helps, if not please let me know.

I looked at that, and the code has:

<div style="color: #000; background-color: #fff; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;" id="yiv2575389172yui_3_16_0_1_1405658232141_11311">
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://thecreativecanvass.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Muffin-and-mummy.jpg"><img width="213" height="284" alt="Muffin and mummy" src="https://thecreativecanvass.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Muffin-and-mummy-225x300.jpg" class="alignleft  wp-image-621"></a>Hello and welcome to the Creative Canvass.</p>

Given that the style is generated inline with that DIV tag and is not in a CSS file, tells me it’s generated by the theme or some plugin and can be changed with it. Might try putting the following into the theme’s CSS file:

#yiv2575389172yui_3_16_0_1_1405658232141_11311 {
  color: #000 !important;
  background-color: #fff !important;
  font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif !important;
  font-size: 10pt !important;
}

Change the above values to what you want. Well only if that seemingly random ID stays the same though.

Hmmm.. or you might edit the About page’s HTML and add your own style to the paragraph tags in the post itself.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for this, it seems to have worked.

I’ll have a play around with font sizes ??
