# Entry title & Menu title too BIG VERTICAL

 * I’ve restored an old backup and it messed up a few of things on my theme, either
   on my parent theme (twenty twelve) or child theme (linen).
 * My entry titles have gone bananas, they’re way too big and vertical.
    My meny
   titles are not bigger than they were before but they also are vertical.
 * I can’t seem to find the issue anywhere?
    I’d really appreciate some help, I’m
   about to lose my mind.

 * Hi!
 * On line 129 in style.css change to:
 *     ```
       .site-title, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
       color: #6f6f6f !important;
       font-family: roboto, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;
       letter-spacing: 5px;
       text-transform: uppercase;
       font-style: normal;
       }
       ```
   
 * On line 175 in style.css change to:
 *     ```
       .entry-header .entry-title, #content > h1, #archives .entry-header {
       text-transform: uppercase;
       display: inline-block;
       font-weight: 300;
       font-size: 79px;
       font-style: normal;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope this helps.

 * Hi,
 * Replace in the Linen child theme style.css. All that needs to change is your 
   letter-spacing on line 132 to 5px (was 300px which caused the horizontal-ness)
   and bring the font-size down from 160px to about 78px or so on line 178. The 
   lines might be different for you so you might need to hunt around (not likely).
 * Cheers.

 * thank you so much LonelySchozz for trying to help me,
 * I don’t know what i’m doing wrong.. but in the linen style.css i can’t find anything
   that’s 300xp (just font-weight),
 * nor do i find 160xp font-size anywhere…
 * whatever i change, bigger or smaller, nothing changes… ?

 * No Problemo,
 * Here is a link the modified style.css: [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1859826/Download/style.css](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1859826/Download/style.css)
 * Please make a backup copy of the current style.css and then replace it with my
   file. If you’re using FTP then just replace the file in wp-content/themes/linen/
   style.css if you are using the WP backend then just cut and paste ALL the css
   in my file replacing the css in the current style.css and click update file.
 * This will fix the problems that I thought necessary to fix, nothing major.
 * Cheers.

 * Hi agani, thanks!
 * but still nothing happens.. it all looks exactly the same..!
 * then it must be something with the parent theme, no?
 * I mean it worked 3 days ago, everything looked just perfect the way it was suppose
   to look. But now it’s all messed up.
 * Is there a way to reset all themes, both parent and child theme to when it was“
   untouched” and new?

 * I’m sorry to hear that things are still not working for you. Try clearing your
   cache and see how it looks after replacing the style.css in the child theme.
 * You could always export your posts and backup your database and then do a fresh
   install of your theme. I recommend Backup Buddy plugin to make this easy.
