One should not have to pay someone to change the header width and font.

Theme TWENTY FIFTEEN. Designed by WordPress. Hosted on my own server.

As someone who used to code by hand and relied on Dreamweaver and a server to put pages on the web, I like WordPress’s otherwise simplicity, but I am quite disturbed and annoyed by this theme’s refusal to allow width changes and font changes to the header. I think it’s embarrassing to the user and embarrassing of WordPress to not have built that into the Theme. And here is how I really feel about it.

Everyone is stumped for time and I should be able to build on my own site and use my old knowledge without being made to feel stupid by the people who think this should turn into an income for them or else make me go back and invest even an hour for what is a simple thing. I just can’t fathom the logic in this particular restriction of use! I haven’t got 2-3 hours right now to go step by step through CSS and this template’s back end, just so I don’t look like a hack to the 10 people who presently visit my site. I fear 100 visiting my site then thinking I’m a hack. No template designer should have put me in this position!

I’m willing to pay a developer to collaborate with and make my site whiz-bang, branded, and with a content strategy. I’m based in Montreal, though travelling, and would be happy to work with someone who could help me turn my site into something that could generate income. But I’m not happy about being required to hire someone just for a quick job to make up for some template developer treating a user, this user, with disdain.

My suggestion: WordPress fixing the Twenty Fifteen template so that the USER can change the fonts and sizes and weights and alter the width of the Header (left) column.
