Daft question about fonts

  • Hiya,

    My blog is at https://theriverkelvin.co.uk/blog/

    I have a couple of questions, totally rubbish at coding and stuff like that so here is what I need to know !

    1.The numbers of posts I have is a grey colour, how do I go about changing them ?

    2. The text in the header is white which means that sometimes it cannot be read, how do I change that to another colour?

    3. I quite fancy changing the font and the colours of the actual posts themselves, how do I go about that ?

    4. I am pretty bad when it comes to designing anything, any other tips ?

  • Nothing daft there !

    2. Look for this in your css file:
    h1, h1 a, h1 a:hover, h1 a:visited, .description {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: white;
    }

    Changing the color using a hex value will give you a greater range;
    h1, h1 a, h1 a:hover, h1 a:visited, .description {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #ff0000;
    }

    3. Add this at the very bottom of your css file:
    .entry p {
    font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
    font-size: 1.2em;
    line-height: 1.4em;
    }
    Those values just adjust and see what you like.

    4. Looked at https://themes.wordpress.net ?

    1. Not sure what you mean ?

    Firstly, these are CSS questions and you’re best served by reading up on CSS and HTML. Google for CSS Tutorials.

    All the solutions underneath require that you open up /blog/wp-content/themes/default/style.css and add the specified code at the bottom of the file.

    1. add li{color:#fff !important} where fff is the desired color (in this case, fff = white).

    2. add #header h1 a{
    color:#ff0;
    }     where ff0 is the desired color (in this case, f00 = red).

    3. Add #content p
    {
    font-family: arial;
    }

    4. Google for CSS tutorials and play around. The best way to learn is to experiment.

    Podz, you are far too quick:)

    As mentioned above, it’s a good idea to put in some work to learn some of the basics of CSS/web design. And by the different answers given by me and Podz, there are multiple solutions for the same goal.

    Back up your edited files, have a play around and see how you fare. We all have to begin somewhere:)
