How do I give my FOOTER a different FONT SIZE than my (side) widgets?

    As you can see the text in my footer is one word to long. So I’d like to shrink the font-size of the footer, but WHITOUT shrinking the fontsize of my side widgets as well.

    I think I only need to add some css-code in my style sheet, but I don’t know what to write and where to put it.

    Thanks so much for your help!

    If you use a tool such as the firebug addon for firefox you will see that the footer has ‘Bewustzijnsvormen’ in a div called site-info.

    if you go into your dashboard > appearance > editor you will se a list of files on the left and a file open in the editor window.

    File the file list on the right select the style sheet that applies to your installation, I think it is twentyten-child.css. Search for ‘site-info’ and check the settings and amend as required.

    *** PLEASE NOTE ***

    Make a exact note of anything you change, the div, the name what the original setting was and what it is now. You should also back up the css files if you can access via FTP.

    It may make changes in more than one place as the style does seem to lump lots of classes together, but you can amend the style sheet and remove the site-info class from the whole list of classes and create your own class for it.

    This link CSS may give you some tips about CSS.

    Thank you. I didn’t mean the word ‘Bewustzijnsvormen’, I meant the word ‘nodig.’ The last word of the copyright statement, in grey.

    So I don’t want to get rid of the black, I want to adjust the font-size of the grey footer text, WITHOUT changing the font-size of the side-widgets as well. (I know how to change that in the stylesheet, but I don’t want both changed, just the footer, otherwise the side font gets too small.)

    Thanks!

    this should be selective enough:

    #footer-widget-area .widget-area { font-size: 13px; }

    if you don’t find the style, add it new to your stylesheet.

    Ah, you’re the best! Sometimes you just need to know where to put what.
    Thanks so much Alchymyth, for your guidance!

    A bow.
