font changes

[morga]

what is the easiest way to change fonts and color in a template. I have looked all over and can't seem to find a simple answer. My goal is to change font colors first everywhere in the template, then maybe work on font types.

Any easy way to do this or can someone point me in the right direction of where i change such things in the css, if that is what is needed.


thank you
Morga :)

The stylesheet (/includes/templates/your_template/css/stylesheet.css) is the place for that work.

The body {} declaration covers the entire site, and other selectors are used for individual parts of the page.

Look at www.w3schools.com if you need more info on how to use CSS, and get Firefox and its Web Developer extension to help with finding the element tags that control items and editing the CSS. The Information > Display Element Information button will become your best friend.

then maybe work on font types.

What you should know is that you can not determine or force the use of a font type that is not part of the users font liabrary

It is only what they have loaded that can be used - if you are seeking a specific look for certian areas the only way is to make it an image

Thank you!

I had not thought of people using different fonts in their browser. I will leave it as is and leave the choices up to the visitor :)


Thanks for the heads up before I spent hours trying stuff that doesn't.
