 * Hi, I’m trying to change the font style and color on my headers at the top of
   each page (but not the featured pages under the slider). Also, I would like to
   remove the icon that sits at the left of those headers. Can anyone help me out?

 *     ```
       /* Change colour of menu/navbar items*/
       .navbar .nav > li > a {
         color: red;
       }
   
       /* Change colour of first letters in menu */
       .navbar .nav > li > a:first-letter {
         color: red;
       }
       ```

 * Thanks for your reply, but that code changed the font/color of the titles on 
   my navigation bar, but what I really want to do is change the font/color on the
   header of each page, for example the “President’s Message” header at the top 
   of that particular page. I tried to adjust the code you sent to affect those 
   pages, but couldn’t get it quite right.
 * Thanks again, I appreciate your help!

 * OK, try this:
 *     ```
       .marketing h2 {
       color: #FF0000;
       }
       ```
   
 * Change #FF0000 (red) to what you need

 * Thanks, unfortuantely it’s still not changing what I want. That changed the three
   featured page headers (blue now). You can see here” [http://afscme-3634.org](http://afscme-3634.org)
 * But what I want to change is the headline at the top of each page, for example
   the “Members Only” headline at the top of that page. [http://afscme-3634.org/members-only](http://afscme-3634.org/members-only).
   Is it possible to change that text?

 * Here you go:
 *     ```
       .entry-title.format-icon {
         color: #FF0000;
       }
       ```
   
 * That will change the color. Did you mean change the text? That will be one of
   your Page titles.
