 * Hi Guys
 * I am new to Word Press. Quick question, hopefully someone knows the answer. When
   I use h1 tags, it makes the text very big and different from the text in the 
   content. I don’t like this. I want the text in the h1 tag to be the same size
   as the text elsewhere on my homepage.
 * Maybe underlined, but definitely the same size.
 * Same for the h2 and h3 tags.
 * Does anyone know if this is achievable?
 * Thanks,
 * Golden-Boy

 * If you go into your current template’s CSS you can edit the font size for the
   H2 tag.
 * like this
 *     ```
       h2 {
       font-size:10px
       }
       ```

 * Thank you for that. How do I navigate to the CSS template from my dashboard?

 * On mine it’s Appearance -> Editor and then look for the style.css on the right
   hand side of the window but not sure if everyone has the editor or it is part
   of my theme (think they all have it though)
 * Problem is if it’s an updatable theme when it updates you will have it changed
   so an even better thing to do would be this.
 * Appearance -> Edit CSS and write it in there, that’s a master css file that control’s
   all other css files, problem is if your plugins use the h2 tags and so on it 
   will change it for all of them too.

 * Is it:
 * Stylesheet (style.css)
 * If so, what you suggested worked 🙂

 * I was able to figure part of it out, but it is still bolding. Is there a way 
   I can reduce the size of the bolding?

 * yeh its font-weight:100; (if 100 is too think try 200 and so on) put it under
   the font-size:whatever-px; bit

 * This is what worked for me:
 * h1{
    font-style:normal; font-size:13px; font-weight: normal; }
 * Thanks for your help Scott. You put me on the right track.

 * np, once you get the gist of some css the rest is easy so you’ll know how to 
   tweak other things you need to aswell
