 * Hyea!
 * Another stupid question…
    Is it possible to make all text in all widgets, blog
   posts etc etc look same – same size, same font, same color etc? And same with
   all titles pure text or linked?
 * Was trying to unify it, but there always some different strokes, sizes, align…
   
   Idea is to get same style for all text-related parts of the site. With an option
   to modify it for some exclusions like footer widgets text needs to be white etc.
 * Thanks a lot for your help!

 * [@bubdadigger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bubdadigger/): We don’t believe
   in stupid questions around here. 🙂
 * You could change the size, font, and colour of pieces of text on your site using
   custom CSS.
 * If you could point to the specific parts of your site that you’re trying to change,
   we could assist with that and point you in the right direction.

 * Thanks, Siobhan 🙂
 * Well… It would be every text field – sidebar, blog, widgets, everything.
    Basically
   two types of text – title and everything else 🙂
 * Maybe header/menu and footer are off the list, but I’ll deal with them later,
   so everything :O))

 * Hi [@bubdadigger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bubdadigger/),
 * The text should be fairly consistent across the site as it is. The theme’s designer
   carefully chose text sizes and fonts that would be work well.
 * If you’d really like to override those design decisions, I suggest [using your browser’s built in tools](https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/how-to-find-your-themes-css/)
   to inspect specific parts of your site’s text that you’re looking to change.
 * You will then be able to see any CSS that’s causing the text to look different
   and then determine the correct custom CSS you need to “reset” it.
 * For example, I found that the text in your widgets have a set **font-size** and**
   line-height**:
 * [⌊Screen Shot 2016 11 03 at 11 38 18⌉⌊Screen Shot 2016 11 03 at 11 38 18⌉[
 * To following CSS could be used to “reset” the styled being applied to the text
   in your widgets:
 *     ```
       .widget {
           font-size: inherit;
           line-height: inherit;
       }
       ```
   
 * You would need to repeat the process for all styled text across your site.
 * There are quite a lot of changes that you’d need to make and all of the CSS you’d
   need goes beyond the scope of support this forum is intended for, but I hope 
   that helps point you in the right direction.
