Changing Main Font

Now where do I do this for the other content, the content actually found in the main_page.php defined page? I'd like to make that font bigger as well.

Try using the html area editor in the admin...as it is word processor like in function. You and size & color as you wish.

Re: Changing Main Font

We already tried that. It works for the color or if we want to make it bold, etc.. but it will not work for changing the size. I'm guessing there's another code somewhere else that overrides this. I found the code to make the entire site's font larger but I just want the font in each page larger, not the entire sites.

Re: Changing Main Font

Wrap the defined_page content in a <div> and give it a new class.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Re: Changing Main Font

ah, I see. Thanks

Oh I also found out that I can add "em" after the number of the font size i want and it worked too.

I don't know how you all keep up with all this and actually remember to answer questions. lol

Re: Changing Main Font

This is the code you put at the end of your stylesheet. Leave the main php file alone when possible..

h1#indexCategoriesHeading {font-family: Monotype Corsiva, verdana, arial, helvevitica, sans-serif;font-size: 3.5em; text-align: center;}

h1#productListHeading {font-family: Monotype Corsiva, verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
text-align: left;}

h1#productName.productGeneral {font-family: Monotype Corsiva, verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 2.5em;}

**** h1 - at the top of the style sheet - changes the font size on the main page!

To change the font you just change the first font name IE "Monotype Corsiva' to whatever you want in the first place but be careful not to use anything that isn't standard because other because not all explorers will be able to read it and just print it out as Times Roman or something similar.

Hope all this helps!
