Weeks you say? Well, that’s not good. * Can you pass along your link and theme so we can dig in and help crack this nut? * Thread Starter [babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) * (@babylovemn) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581462) * I’m using Customizr (the green one) and the website is [here](http://babylovemn.com). * and yes, weeks. I’ve managed to fix everything else I wanted BUT this. * Thanks! * [lorbach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorbach/) * (@lorbach) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581464) * Thx. Can you clarify which text you’re looking to enlargify? * Thread Starter [babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) * (@babylovemn) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581470) * The text on the pages…..so, like this part “BabyLove’s birth preparation classes are based in focusing on the normal process of birth. Following in the footsteps of Lamaze International, we want to help parents understand how to have a healthy and safe birth. To help families achieve this, we encourage informed decision making and communication with caring doctors and midwives. This is your birth. Get the information you need to make the choices to have the birth you want.” one [this page](http://www.babylovemn.com/birth-preparation/) (and all of them) * [lorbach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorbach/) * (@lorbach) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581500) * Hmmm. I’m looking at the Customizr site and demo. [http://demo.themesandco.com/layout-test/](http://demo.themesandco.com/layout-test/) * It’s not a free theme so I can’t download it and test it out. By using the Chrome Inspector I see the font is set to 12px. I can turn that off and it increases to 18px (I think). So you need to tweak the the “body” in the CSS. But if you’ve been working on this for weeks… I’m guessing you’ve already tried that. * I’ll keep digging in. * Thread Starter [babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) * (@babylovemn) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581502) * It is a free theme…. * Thread Starter [babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) * (@babylovemn) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581504) * What would be the CSS to change it to 18px? * [lorbach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorbach/) * (@lorbach) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581517) * Hmm… what am I missing? I see the download for $19.95? * [http://www.themesandco.com/extension/featured-pages-unlimited/#content](http://www.themesandco.com/extension/featured-pages-unlimited/#content) * Can you send the link from where you downloaded a free version? * Thread Starter [babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) * (@babylovemn) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581518) * It was free just under “themes” in WordPress….though only in the WordPress installed directly onto my own server. * [heidione](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heidione/) * (@heidione) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581520) * Customizr is free…but you mentioned that one is upgraded version * Thread Starter [babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) * (@babylovemn) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581521) * I’m not using the upgraded version. * [batharoy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batharoy/) * (@batharoy) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581527) * [@lorbach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorbach/) What you see for 19.95 is an extension add on for the customizer theme. The theme itself is free, you can easily download it through Appearance > Themes > Add New. * [@babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) Try this in the custom css section. * ``` body { font-size: 16px; } ``` * [lorbach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorbach/) * (@lorbach) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581568) * Ahh yes. Thanks. I’ll take a look. * babylovemn did you try increasing the body font size yet? Your initial question was “I have been trying for WEEKS to get the size of the font on my changes to be bigger. No css code I try works.” * So I kind of assumed you had already tried editing the body css. * Thread Starter [babylovemn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/babylovemn/) * (@babylovemn) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581573) * I have tried many versions of css code to change the size of the font. * batharoy, I tried the code you suggested again and nothing changed. * [rdellconsulting](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rdellconsulting/) * (@rdellconsulting) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-font-sizes-1/#post-4581574) * Now try: * ``` p { font-size: 150%; } ``` * If that doesn’t work then we have to understand what you’re doing!
