 * I’d like to change the font family for my website title and font family and size
   for blog posts but am encountering problems when following the suggestions in
   various other Forum topics.
 * 1. My website title appears to be All Capitals and Font family “Champagne and
   Limousine”. I think I’ve managed to put my desired font family in by using the
   Custom CSS plug-in (as recommended in various Forum topics). But how do I change
   from All Caps to regular text?
 * 2. I’ve also managed, again using the Custom CSS plug-in, to change the font 
   size on my Home (static front page) page but not the Blog posts. How can I make
   blog posts in the same font family and size as the Home page?
 * Hope you can put me straight please?

 * change from All Caps to regular text please add this CSS:
 *     ```
       .site-title a {
           text-transform: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * To increase font size in general on all content paragraphs, you can try this:
 *     ```
       .entry-content p {
       	font-size:1.5em;
       }
       ```
   
 * let me know if that worked

 * Thank you Imre
 * The first solution doesn’t appear to work but the second solution, to increase
   font size in general,does.
 * When I add the CSS, using the Plug-in Simple Custom CSS and hit the Update button
   it does change the site title from All Caps to regular BUT when I subsequently
   use the Plug-in to add some other CSS, (e.g. to perform the second solution) 
   it knocks out the first piece of CSS i.e.the first solution is not getting saved/
   permanently
 * Fortunately when I re-try to add the first piece of CSS the second piece of CSS
   is retained i.e. the second solution appears saved/permanent.
 * Does the CSS, for changing All Caps to regular, need modifying to make it a permanent
   addition?

 * You don’t need to use an extra plugin for custom CSS.
    You can just add it to
   Customizer / Additional CSS
 * Try adding all your CSS there and that should work.
    Make sure the All Caps title
   override CSS is last.

 * Thank you for that tip.
    I had been following different Forum threads which most
   suggest using the Plug-in. As a dabbler in web building I’d like to learn more
   about when to use a Customizer/Additional CSS versus Plug-in. Do you have any
   recommendations or know of any threads or articles please ?

 * Hi paulhuntnp,
 * It is not recommended to use a plugin if you already have similar functioning
   settings or fields or sections in your WordPress admin area. Plugins are used
   to make your task more easier,however they may create issues with proper functioning
   of your front end website and other compatibilities.
 * You can refer here what actually a plugin is and where to use it;

 * Thank you Rohan.
    Changing font sizes and family do present a challenge. Perhaps
   I’ve unwittingly created one of the issues you elude to as somehow the font in
   Headers is different to main body/paragraphs and some posts (published prior 
   to me changing font family) are still in different font family. Any further help
   you can offer to enable me to achieve consistency with fonts would be appreciated.
   1. How do I change Header fonts? 2. Do I need to re-do the older posts – presumably
   they are not automatically refreshed with the new font family? Paul

 * Hey paulhuntnp,
 * You can use **Easy Google Fonts** Plugin for your theme.
    Please refer the following
   tutorial on how to install and use the plugin; [http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/wordpress/recommended-wordpress-plugins/easy-google-fonts-plugin](http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/wordpress/recommended-wordpress-plugins/easy-google-fonts-plugin)

 * Thanks Rohan
    The font I needed is not in Easy Google Font and hence I have to
   use a different plug-in. Am familiar with how to install a plug-in thanks. And
   I think I’ve now managed to use it properly to change the heading fonts.Thanks
   for your help.
