# text-transform: none

 * I really like this theme, and appreciate having an author-created child theme
   ready to install. But I’m very confused about my inability to override the text-
   transform: uppercase calls in the theme’s style sheet.
 * Within the child theme’s CSS, I’ve tried
 * .main-navigation a,
    .page-title, .entry-footer > .entry-footer-links { text-
   transform: none; }
 * and also tried making these declarations individually rather than as a group,
   and also tried using the !important declaration, but nothing has worked for me.

 * Sorry, right. I should have included this in my previous post:

 * This should cover the page titles:
 *     ```
       .entry-title, .entry-title a, .page-title, .site-title a {
         text-transform: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * And this should cover the entry metadata:
 *     ```
       .entry-footer>.entry-footer-links, .entry-meta {
         text-transform: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Is there any other text you’re wanting to change?

 * That worked perfectly! Thanks, Stephen Cottontail!
 * I would like to completely get rid of all Google Fonts (I’ve updated functions.
   php which has gotten my most of the way there) and substitute in the fonts I’m
   using at another site I maintain, [Library Pipeline](https://www.librarypipeline.org/).
 * For headers, I would like to use:
 *     ```
       color: #1A1A1A;
       font-family: Palatino,Palatino Linotype,Palatino LT STD,Book Antiqua,Georgia,serif;
       ```
   
 * And for body text, I would like to use:
 *     ```
       color: #1A1A1A;
       font-family: Gill Sans MT,Gill Sans,Calibri,sans-serif;
       ```
   
 * On the whole, I’ve found Simppeli much easier to understand and modify than Accessible
   Zen (which is what I use for Library Pipeline), but the fonts are an exception,
   at least so far. Have you found an easy way to override all the fonts in Simppeli?

 * Try this:
 *     ```
       body, .comments-area, .entry-content, .entry-footer, .entry-summary, .page-content {
         color: #1a1a1a;
         font-family: Gill Sans MT,Gill Sans,Calibri,sans-serif;
       }
   
       h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
         color: #1a1a1a;
         font-family: Palatino,Palatino Linotype,Palatino LT STD,Book Antiqua,Georgia,serif;
       }
       ```
   
 * You could also completely remove the Google fonts from even loading by using 
   this code in your child theme’s `functions.php`:
 *     ```
       <?php
   
       function remove_google_fonts() {
         wp_dequeue_style(  'simppeli-fonts' );
       }
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_google_fonts', 11 );
       ```

 * This is great — thank you!
 * The font declarations work perfectly, and the function for removing Google fonts
   is much more efficient than what I was doing previously.
 * I’m going to mark this thread resolved.
 * Thanks again!
