• I have been reading that font size 12 is now past it’s sell by date. Can anyone please advise how I can change the font and the size of the font for the content of my blog, whereas the sidebar and headers are fine. I would need the advice in reasonably simple terms. Is there a plugin I could use for example?

    I have been using Stephen’s Sigma theme since December 2014 and I just love it. Any replies would be very much appreciated.

    for changing the font size or color , you have to know about css.

    every element has a class or an ID to represent itin the CSS file.

    in our case , this class represent the style of the article.

    .single .main article

    so if we want to change font size , we can make something like this.

    .single .main article{ font-size:14px; }

    you have to copy this code into your style.css file.

    Thanks for the reply Mkalid.

    That’s the problem – I am an end user not a coder. Css means little to me other than a few basics. I think wordpress is fantastic – it is a product to be used by people like me, it’s not a coders club. The Sigma theme I use, developed by Stephen Harris, is excellent it provides everything the end user requires; except now current web design thinking is to move away from font size of 12 px and to increase line spacing. So we need to move with the times.

    I have looked at the sigma theme via Appearance >Editor and there is nowhere to place the code you have kindly provided, in fact, the file say’s that the style sheet is in a file called
    assets/sigma.css -the location of which is not provided.

    If you are able to tell me where that file is I’ll will try adding your code.

    Sorry for the rant.

    Keith

    can you find style.css file inside editor page ?

    don’t worry about assets/sigma.css

    put the code inside the style.css page and let me know if it worked

    I use TinyMCEAdvanced and TinyMCEColorPicker. It gives you various fonts and you can also choose sizes.
