Type is being weird

    I just switched my site to the theme Decode. It looks great on the homepage but if you go to the about page all the text is smushed together. How do I fix this? And is it possible to change what category of text something like titles in the sidebar is (from body to title or something like that)? Thanks in advance.

    My website is <a href=”p#firstpara:first-letter{ font-size: 300%; }
    therallycaps.com”>therallycaps.com

  • the link to your site: https://therallycaps.com

    for the type try putting this in your css file:

    p { line-height: 1.75em }

    and regarding category of text, what exactly are you trying to do? Sorry, I’m not clear on that.

    Thanks Janet! I’ll try that in a little bit when I get to a computer. As far as category of text goes, right now, my menu text is tied to my body text. So if I change the body text font or size, the menu text changes too. Same goes with if I change the title size, all the titles in comments and a number of other sections change. Is there a way to isolate each section to change them individually? Hopefully that’s clearer.

    Thanks again.

    Yes, there is a way.

    To change only your header-menu type you would use:

    .header-menu a {
font-size: 16px;
color: #000;
whatever: whatever;
}

    All the instances of titles, etc. will have their own specific classes to use so it targets only that “category” as you put it.

    Thanks. So what would I use if I wanted to change just the title of posts? Sorry…I’m not good at CSS at all.

    do you have changes made in your admin appearance menu somehow? There are a lot of style overrides happening not the style.css file. This might be hard to do.

    Maybe you installed some styling plugin?

    You might want to use that instead of the css file or turn off those plugins and do everything in the css.
