How can I remove italic from titles (and turn them to the normal font)?

    I’m new to fully-customizable WordPress (have been using .com for years though), hence I’m still trying to understand how to adjust it to my needs.

    The first obstacle I’ve met is the default font used for the post titles: I’m using Button 2 (with WP Google Fonts plugin installed) and I’ve seen it defaults the post titles to italic.
    But I’d wish they would use the normal font, not italic.

    No piece of advice I’ve found in other threads has been helpful so I decided to ask your help: how can I turn the font of my titles to normal?

    As a practical example, if you follow the link to my site (I’ve only just started working on it, so forgive the lack of contents), I’d wish to use the normal font both in the posts’ title and the menus on the right.

    And is there a way to change the color of the menu links from red to black, so that it’s the same color as the other texts?

    Hi, for the normal vs italic, try this in your CSS:

    .entry-title, .widget-title {
    font-style: normal;
}

    I don’t see red menu links at this point. But, if you’re wondering how to find the CSS so you can experiment with changes on your own, the tutorial here may help you out:

    Hoping this helps!

    Great, it works perfectly!
    Thank you so much! ??

    While being at this, what would be the piece of code needed to make the title’s text a little bigger?

    As for the red menu links, I meant the red texts appearing in the menus on the right side: for example, “Uncategorized” under “Categories”, and “November 2020” under “Archives”.
    I’d really wish to have them in the same color as the remaining blog, that is either black or orange.

    I’ll take a look at the tutorial for sure.

    The size of the font can be changed by modifying the number here:

    .entry-title {
    font-size: 1.953em;
}

    As for the widget links, this should help:

    .widget a {
  color: black;
}

    You can replace the word black with any color code.

    I will try it in the week-end: looking forward to experimenting with this!
    Thank you!
