Child Theme for Brunelleschi

  • I’ve finally decided to take a stab at creating a child theme. Right now I am trying to change the font of the .site-title but nothing seems to be working. In my child theme I have the following: 

    .site-title {
font-family: Impact;
}

    I was able to change the background-color of <header> to red. That was the first thing I tried just to see if I was on the right path, but none of the styling that I have tried applying to .site-title is taking effect. I was, however, able to change the background-color of the title with the following code:

    #branding {
background-color: red;
}

    When I tried to change the font by targeting #branding, however, I was unable to do so. Seems none of my attempts to change the font are working.

  • Can you post your website so that I can inspect certain elements and locate which parts of code you might need to edit or change?

    This is of course if you are not locally hosting this before putting up on the web.

    Oh, yes. Sorry. Here is the site:
    Site

    Thank you for your response.

    .entry-title,
.page-title,
.entry-date {
	font-family: Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
}

    You should also make sure you’re clearing cache on browser or trying another browser to see if changes were made.

    This should be working if child theme is setup correctly, especially for .page-title and .entry.title

    That was just a simple code example of how it’s supposed to work, I’m trying to track down why it’s not updating the new font for you.

    This could be an issue where the child theme wasn’t setup correctly and it’s still reading the part of the settings and configurations set by the parent theme itself, I’d double check that.

    Looks like the theme was abandoned by its creator and so has been removed from the repository. I’ve switched to Twenty-Fourteen for now. At present I am trying to figure out how to remove category tags from above my post entries. Thanks again for your replies!

    You’re welcome!

    Keep me posted, I definitely wanna make sure you get this working ??
