no, that didn’t work either.
Like I said, I’ve managed to change the color of the body and a couple of other things no problem, but the font size just will not change.
I was using this Page to test the p{} code
On the Home Page, @batharoy has already suggested a change to body{} which should have worked also. Try that with 150% rather than 16px. Do you see any change at all?
Both changes work when using Firebug, so back to Basics.
– have you added code to the CustomCSS panel in Customiz’it!
– did you try to setup a Child Theme style.css, if so, where did you place it?
– Can you disable Jetpack plugin which has caused problems before just to eliminate symptoms
OK, I tried your latest suggestion. Yes, i am making the chances in the Custom css section in Customizr. When I tried the last suggestion you made, rdellconsulting, the left sidebar adjusted, but not the body. I wonder why?
I really don’t want to get rid of jetpack, as it’s been working really well for me. Do you think if I disabled jetback, tried to make the font changes, that I could re-activate jetpack?
And the next step would be to add a child theme, but I’m still a novice, and it seems really intimidating to me.
a) I was trying to remove Jetpack temporarily, just to eliminate any side-effects it may be causing. You will be able to revert (unless it is the root cause of all your problems). What features are you finding useful?
b) Child Theme is really easy despite looking challenging. It would make this job a lot easier if we knew you had a working CT. Maybe try it step-by-step, and if you’re struggling at any point then report back.
Step 1: Create a new folder /wp-content/themes/customizr-child
Step 2: Download the style.css and functions.php from here
Step 3: Add the 3 files in the zip file to the new folder.
Step 4: Go to Dashboard>Themes and Activate the Czr Child Theme
Step 5: There is no step 5 as you’ve already finished setting up your Child Theme!
Now any changes to CSS can be made in the CustomCSS panel and when working, cut&paste into the style.css.
OK, so I uninstalled jetpack and tried to make the changes on the Custom CSS section, and nothing changed.
So far, Jetpack was THE BEST solution for me to get a working mobile site that I like. I’ve also liked the stats and the sidebar widgets.
When I reactivated Jetpack and was reconfiguing it, I found a place to change the CSS. It turns out that I was able to put the
body {
font-size: 16px;
}
in the jetpack stylesheet and get it working. Thanks for all of your help! If i hadn’t deactivated and reactivated jetpack, I would not have seen the spot to change the stylesheet on jetpack.
