Without a link to your blog, or at least the theme you’re using, the answer you will get is generic. Look in the style sheet for something like,
.description {}
…and add,
font-style: italic;
A more specific answer will require more specific details from you.
Here’s the link: “69.89.31.215/~winerabb” It’s only a temp url because I’m in the midst of upgrading hosts.
Italicizing “Your “rabbi” in the wine world.”?
On your style.css, in this section
#masthead h1, #masthead #tagline {
color:#999999;
font-family:Verdana,serif;
font-size:1.4em;
font-size-adjust:none;
font-stretch:normal;
font-style:normal;
font-variant:normal;
font-weight:normal;
line-height:1.42857em;
padding:0pt;
text-align:left;
}
change font-style:normal;
to font-style:italic;
If this helps, visit my profile sometime.
Thanks. Here’s that same section as it reads in my style.css:
#masthead h1, #masthead #tagline { font: normal 1.4em/1.42857em Verdana, serif; padding: 0; color: #999; text-align: left; }
When I tried to change “normal” to “italic”, nothing happened. Am I looking in the wrong place, or do additional changes need to be made?
I’m sorry I gave you a wrong snippet — I was using a new CSS debugger. I should have said,
Add a font-style:italic;
line to the #masthead h1, #masthead #tagline
section.
Still not quite working.
Is this what you were intending the edited line to look like? (new text at end)
#masthead h1, #masthead #tagline { font: normal 1.4em/1.42857em Verdana, serif; padding: 0; color: #999; text-align: left; font-style:italic; }
69.89.31.215/~winerabb/wp-content/themes/neoclassical/style.css isn’t showing the change. Please re-upload, or reedit it in Theme Editor then save.
Success! It took a couple of re-loads, but it works now. Thanks a million!
