    Im fairly new to wordpress and have basic skills for technical stuff like coding. I am wondering how I can edit the html, as I want to change the heading text font, size colour etc.
    Can I do this straight into the ‘edit themes’ code? it doesnt seem to update with the changes.

    Or do I have to access it from another file and change in a text editor then reupload?

    i have spent some time reading the info provided on the wp site but still cant manage to master it.

    Any help would be great 🙂

    Thanks

    A link to your site would make things easier for us.

    Generally speaking, you should:

    • Make changes in a child theme
    • Alter styles in a style sheet and not in the HTML

    Depending on your theme, the style sheet you need to add to or alter is called style.css, but there are other possible places where styles might be being defined, such as in a <style> block. Such blocks are often injected by plugins, for example. Or style.css might @import other style sheets. Or your theme might link to other style sheets in the HTML <head> element, in which case the order of linking will be important in determining which rule wins.

    The upshot of this is that you need to know exactly which style rule is determining the style you are interested in. Most of us use Firebug to find that out.

    If you find out that the style has been injected into a <style> block, you may need to use techniques such as CSS specificity to override that rule.

    Post again if you still need help or don’t understand any of the above.

    Cheers
